Re: Name & Shame 'em!!!

We were talking about it in another thread roxy my opinion is changing though as the day goes on. Shock and sadness stays the same, but as more comes out I'm thinking there was more to this than originally thought. It wasn't a single complaint several women had spoken out.

Re: Name & Shame 'em!!!

If there was ever a good argument that the investigation of these kind of allegations should NOT hit the headlines and become public fodder it is this.

He might have been guilty.
He might have been innocent.
He most certainly felt driven to take his own life.

Trouble is in cases such as in Rochdale the investigation did not start till it hit the local papers and the police where then forced to take it seriously and do something about it.

I agree with you Morty, but the newspapers always find out and start flinging dirt around. Doesn't matter if it's true or not. The more they can stir things up the more papers are sold and another life is destroyed..

One Policeman near here has been charged with raping a 13 year old.

They need to know who the baddies are.
Why would they need to know that "X" was a bad person just because they broke the speed limit, and why should a persons family have to suffer for the wrong doings of another family member. Should their children have to suffer possible bullying because their mother or father had committed a crime ,? NO they should not.There is only one person that needs to suffer anything and that is the perpetrator of the crime . There is no need whatsoever to publish their name .

The big problem is they most aren't crimes aren't even anything would lead to an investigation. So all the victims have is publicity.
