[edit] Summary

a NYPD mugshot of Sicilian mafiosi Peter Morello appearing at Mugshots.com I believe the photo, which is the public domain, falls under fair use as a historically significant photo of a famous individual and used for informational purposes.

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.
