It's literally just as simple as them wanting to look badass for a photo op (which they knew it would be)
They're probably worried about people trying to help Luigi
Yep. If he did get free somehow, there's like a quarter billion safe houses waiting for him. That makes him an incredibly high risk prisoner
And why are they allowing a pic that makes him look like a Dragon Ball Z character?
They took the saddest picture they had of him. All the other pictures was just 
All the piggies wanted to pose looking butch.

But the billionaire was a person! The black man was just a statistic. 
American cops always have zero drip
it feels obvious to me that they're trying to martyr him

You know what I've noticed? Nobody panics when things go "according to plan" even if the plan is horrifying.

But murder one little old CEO and everyone loses their minds!
