If you are a celebrity with a nose for trouble, here's some advice: Stay within Los Angeles city limits or risk having your mug shot broadcast around the world. Unlike Malibu, Santa Monica or Glendale, where law enforcement agencies release booking photos, the city of Los Angeles refuses to fork them over unless investigators decide a picture will help with a criminal investigation. Celebrity booking photos shown, from left top, are Nick Nolte in a Sept. 12, 2003 photo provided by The California Highway Patrol, Mel Gibson in a July 28, 2006 photo provided by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, Hugh Grant in a June 27, 1995 photo provided by the Los Angeles Police Department, O.J. Simpson in a June 17, 1994 photo provided by the Los Angeles Police Department, Paris Hilton in a Sept. 7, 2006 photo provided by the Los Angeles Police Department, Nicole Richie in a Aug. 23, 2007 photo provided by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and Lindsay Lohan in an Aug. 23, 2007 photo provided by the Santa Monica Police Department. The Hilton photo was released inadvertently by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.
