Mugshot of Kathy Boudin by the New York State Department of Correctional Services From http://www.thesmokinggun.com/mugshots/boudinmug1.html .

This image is a booking photo, more commonly known as a mug shot, normally produced in the regular operations of a law enforcement agency or correctional facility. It is believed that the use of this photograph to illustrate the booking consistent with non-free content criteria, where no free alternative exists or could be created, on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content. To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Image description page, as well as the source of the work.

[edit] Fair use in Kathy Boudin

• US Mugshots are often, though not always, considered public domain in general
• In any case, they are never marketed for profit by the agency taking the photographs, so this display does not infringe on any commercial benefit to the photographer
• This is displayed here for educational purposes only
• The person in question is (in)famous mainly as a criminal; therefore her arrest and the photograph at the time of her arrest is an important, even irreplaceable, part of her article
• This is obviously not available or reproducible as a completely free photograph
