God, why would you use an actual police decal without permission, you dumbshits. Everything else was carefully crafted to be Pepsi colored and Pepsi branded, and they're going to go ahead and just use a (what is probably a knockoff, but still) SFPD patch. Stupid.

They probably just rented some off-the-shelf police outfits from a costume shop that supplies movie studios. Movies and TV are obviously allowed to use realistic-looking logos and uniforms and stuff for police and military, but I bet the rules are a lot stricter for commercials, where it could be taken as an official endorsement.

There's "realistic looking logo" and "logo that l-iterally says San Francisco Police Department" with the logo and everything.

Not that his past has anything to do with this incident in the slightest but it's sure as hell gonna matter in terms of the public discourse surrounding this shitfest. This reeks of someone trying to dig dirt up as a distraction/to mitigate public outcry because nothing has changed as far as the original incident is concerned

But alas, the perfect victim he is not

You can get really close in movies at least. My favorite is the director in This Is Spin̈al Tap wearing a "USS Ooral Sea (OV-48)" cap which is the exact cap for "USS Coral Sea (CV-43)" except they closed off two C's and an 3. It's the exact design otherwise. They did this when the Navy wouldn't let them use the actual hat on film.

Nah, that's just 'cause Reiner *thought* he needed the Navy's permission. You don't. In the DVD special extras, he's wearing just a regular Navy cap that hasn't been messed around with at all because by then he knew better. You can wear an actual uniform in a film, without permission; you sure don't need the Navy's permission to wear a ballcap of the kind that's sold in the gift shop just about every museum in the country.

Generally (patchwork of laws and all that), you don't need anyone's permission to use insignia. Actual *badges* can be different, but even then the use of badges is generally okay unless you're actually trying to impersonate a law enforcement officer or other official, or suggesting that the organization whose insignia you're using is endorsing your production or product. Even in San Fran the law only deals with the sale of police badges, not the wearing of shoulder patches. This is a local government making noise, nothing more.

To be clear, he was raping a 9 year old girl, and when he got found out, he burned down the house killing the girl and her grandmother so there would be no witnesses.

I worked on a Tom Arnold move called National Lampoon's Golf Punks (uncredited, but still please don't doxx me). Ol' Tommy Boy was insistent that his character should wear a Seattle Mariners hat and the producers ok'ed it without clearing it through legal first. After shooting, they asked the Mariners for permission. They said "gently caress no" because the character was a degenerate gambler. Every shot of Tom wearing the hat, which was basically every exterior shot he was in, had to have the Mariners logo digitally scrubbed, which was super loving expensive because it was 1998.

e. actually, the shadenfreude is on me for having worked on National Lampoon's Golf Punks

Second billing on IMDB goes to James Kirk, making that a better Star Trek movie than anything Abrams has done.
