Can someone tell me how long it takes? Because I've done this twice- and the stars never go away.

Killed a lot of cops and only 4 stars until I walked completely out of the front gate of the prison, not just out of the building, then immediately got 5 stars.

Never had 5 stars on this mission. It gave me the achievement with only 4 stars.

I managed to obtain this from the church mission where you escape in the hearse, shot a fair amount of cops giving me 5 stars then made a break for it once the coast was clear

Can confirm that 4 stars didn't work for me, like Meta1ingus suggested.

Then I walked all the way out onto the street, shot a couple cops, got 5 stars this time, then back in to the prison and waited about 30 seconds, then it popped right away.

Great solution - @napoearth - Thanks for the tip for walking out the front gates then I walked back in & @AnAngrySnowBear = I'm guessing by hole you mean the hole into the sewers b/c as soon as I jumped down and started walking the 5 stars started flashing and poof they disappeared - THANKS as it really helped a great deal on classic :-)

This can be unlocked in ‘Free Ride’ or in any story chapter where you are being chased by the police. The most ideal place to get this is at the State Prison, located on the northern tip of Central Island, either towards the end of Chapter 17, ‘Election Campaign’ or in ‘Free Ride’.
 
Chapter 17 - Towards the end of the chapter, you are trying to escape the prison, shooting police as you exit. By the time you reach the front gate, you should have a 5-star wanted level. If not, post behind the police vehicle and shoot a few more cops until you do.
 
When there are no police in the immediate area, run out of the front gate and immediately turn right and run along the wall (with the wall on your right). When you reach the end, you will be where you parked your car at the beginning of the chapter. In that alcove is a fence you can climb over (the same fence you climbed at the beginning of the chapter), but the caveat here is that the police cannot follow you. Just wait it out in that area until your wanted level disappears.



Thanks to Onslaught o for the video (Chapter 17):


Free Ride - You are going to utilize the same location as in Chapter 17 but you need to bring your wanted level up from nothing. First, visit Vincenzo at Salieri’s Bar and make sure you have two weapons and full ammo before you leave. After travelling to the prison, to get a 2-star level, steal a car along that curve in the road (make sure you’re seen) then get out and start killing NPCs. When the police show up, start killing them and your wanted level should go up rather quickly. When it is 5-stars, jump over the fence and wait it out.
 
It might be wise to park a couple of cars perpendicular to the fence so you have somewhere to post as you’re shooting to bring up your wanted level.

This can be done in either the story or Free Ride.  The best place that I found for this though is during the mission "Election Campaign."  After you exit the prison, you'll have a five star wanted level.  As soon as you can, get to one of the arrow icons on the minimap.  Those are blockages in the road that will slow down or completely stop the police from chasing you.  Shortly after the five stars are blinking, the police will give up their chase and the trophy will unlock.

The easiest way to unlock Heart From The Cops - Trophy / Achievement is find Flame Spear Hidden Car first.
Also you can do this trophy in Story mode when you are escaping from the prison.

Do this while escaping from the prison at the end of Election Campaign.

You'll likely get up to 4 stars while escaping. To get up to 5, go out the hole in the wall in the three story cellblock. It looks down on the first area of the prison, where you jump over the fence and go to the sewer entrance. Jump back over, shoot the nearby cops, and get in a nearby car. This elevates your wanted level to max.

Get out of the car, jump back over the fence into the prison grounds, and run back to re-enter the sewer. Hiding down there, the cops can't find you and eventually the wanted level goes away. Tada, trophy. Losing the cops in a legitimate car chase is by far the hard way to do this, so just... don't.

The easiest way to get this trophy is to kill a politician with a sniper rifle. When leaving prison, shoot a cop while sitting in a car. You will be given five stars (initially four). Drive to the nearest road works point - voila. The tail is dropped. Wait for the stars to disappear and the trophy is yours. It will be more difficult to do this in walking mode. There, at five stars, the level of pressure from the police is too high, and scripts that limit the number of pursuers help in the story mission.

When you need to get into the car, kill the policeman and go to the right (there is a hatch), climb into the sewer and wait a minute and a half, the chase will stop (if you can’t escape)

I did it in the penultimate mission, where you need to rob a bank. After the robbery there will be four stars. On the way, kill a cop and you'll get five. You will find a barrier nearby and break away from the cops. It seemed to me that in this mission it was the easiest thing to do, because in a mission with a sniper the cops climb and climb, you might not even reach the car, but we are playing on the “classics” after all.

Received "re-election" in the mission. On the way I shot all the cops and at the exit from the building there were 4 stars. As soon as I entered the arch, a bunch of cops immediately arrived and gave me 5 stars (I didn’t even shoot at them). He ran into the sewer, sat out and was given a trophy.

And yet about the task “Re-elections”.

When we kill the politician, we return through the building to the street again.
Before going outside, wait (literally 10 seconds) for 2 cops to return behind the police car to the arch. (If you kill these cops, a bunch of police will come to the arch, they will advance in waves, but the number of stars will remain 4, so there is no point in killing them and hiding in the hatch, as they advise here: the chase does not stop, but there will still be 4 stars. And regarding the very first hint - what are the nearest road works and where are they - I don’t know, and IMHO - this is a risky path).
We leave the building and sneak to the right to the hatch, go through the sewer and return to the starting point of the mission. There will be 2 cops behind the fence: one on the left near the car, the second on the right on the roof, you can’t see him because... stands around the corner. This cop, who is on the roof, can be taken down using stealth (using the O button), jumping sharply around the corner and pressing the silent kill button. I was armed with a knife (I took it from our gunsmith on the second floor before the mission), but in theory this should not have an effect.
The second guard will not notice anything, but the wanted level will increase to 5 stars, then we quickly return to the sewer, wait literally 20 seconds and rejoice at receiving the trophy and almost completing the mission)

The easiest way is to do it after the story, in walk mode, in the location with the secret Trautenberg Sport car. We knock down the door in advance, we go out,

We attack civilians. After the police arrive, by killing police officers, we gain 5 stars. We go into the room with the car, where the door was knocked out, and wait until the search stops.

Actually, I made it here (the left side of the map, there is also a comic book, a small garden behind the fence)
Climbed over a brick wall, shot at 5 stars (cops in this area don’t shoot at you, texture bug). After receiving 5 stars, he went to the far corner of the park and that’s it. Casual.
