Is that a custom plate or did somebody get really unlucky with the plate they were given my the OMV/DMV?
Apparently it is not the standard design for an Indiana plate, so it must be a custom. Plus, the chances of randomly getting BOOG88 have got to be pretty small.
It's one of the standard plates. You can choose this plate instead of the one you posted without any additional fee. You have the option to pay $45 to personalize it but you don't have to.

The link you posted shows the example plate with AAA999. Usually all of the plates of a specific design have a specific schema of letters/numbers. Not sure if this is the case with that particular plate, or if that's just a random example they went with.
Either way, we can't determine a person's affiliation from just that license plate, just use it as a signal to possibly be wary around them.
