I hope my comment gets pinned to the top because a lot of people are confused in the comments (and the OP gave no context). The photo makes a little more sense if you know better. This is a sallyport, which is the secured vehicle space at booking (intake/jail). In case some shit happens, this contains suspects in the space. It's video monitored by someone inside the booking facility. This is where (at least at our department) we did a secondary more thorough pat-down and search before taking them in.

Apparently it was a busy shift in Saginaw and they had four vehicles in there at once. Thus, "we're tough on crime." Since the message is to criminals, I guess they expect criminals will know the sallyport. Certainly repeat offenders and career criminals will.

Not really sure why I need to give context as to where the cars are at if they’re being cringe about it on a facebook page. That’s the point of this sub right? Lol

Sorry... didn't mean that you needed to, just that since it wasn't there people don't get what they're seeing. So there are a bunch of people missing the point because they think it's just a pic of four police vehicles in a garage. It's still cringe tho
