It's really illegal to convey you are something that you are not. It is illegal to impersonate a police officer, a doctor, or a firefighter.
Pretending to be a prisoner is not likely to be illegal. However, you can cause some pretty big confusion if the police were to see you wearing a prison jumpsuit. Most likely you would be arrested on the suspicion you are an escaped prisoner. But once you were to explain what you were doing, the police would probably check you and run a background check and if you checked out, they would let you go. And probably reccomend you take off the prisoner outfit. It's kind of a stupid idea to impersonate a prisoner when you think about it.
Why WOULD you want to, anyways?
