I've seen the opposite - hardcore criminals who are later shown to have been sexually abused children, yet the local newspaper cannot even show a facial mugshot, let alone a full name because of zany regulations governming free press reporting of criminal apprehensions.
In the US, we have defamatory and libel case law for a reason.
When you grant criminals rights over victims, the world becomes a worse place.
What world do you want to live in ?
- lolinder 2y agoA world where if we absolutely must group people into immutable categories like "criminals" and "not criminals", we at least work harder than we currently do to limit the number of people who immutably become branded as criminals.
