Feds Release New Jared Lee Loughner Mug Shots

That creepy smile was gone from Jared Loughner’s face when the alleged Arizona gunman posed for mug shots taken by the United States Marshals Service. Immediately following his January 8 arrest for killing six people and wounding 14 others, including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, Loughner was photographed by the Pima County Sheriff’s Department forensics unit. That image, which investigators do not consider a mug shot, showed a beaming Loughner only hours after the shooting spree outside a Safeway supermarket where Giffords was meeting constituents. Loughner, 22, was subsequently turned over to the custody of federal officials and apparently posed for the USMS booking photos when he appeared in US District Court in Phoenix. Lawyers for Loughner argued that the release of the USMS photos would be prejudicial to their client. However, following a court hearing Friday, Judge Larry Burns declined to bar the release of the images. Instead, he ruled that it was the responsibility of the USMS to decide whether the photos should be made public.
