John Edwards’ Mug Shot Released

His smile is still bright, even if he’s facing six counts following a grand jury indictment. The U.S. Marshals Service released the mug shot of former U.S. Senator John Edwards Wednesday. He pleaded not guilty to conspiracy and violating campaign-contribution laws in early June, following an investigation into whether he used campaign donations to support his mistress, Rielle Hunter. A plea deal between Edwards and the U.S. Justice Department fell through because the former presidential candidate refused to serve jail time.
