So publishing the names of people on trial is tantamount to them being declared guilty by a large proportion of the population. That is enough to fuck them over, regardless of whether there's even a case against them. And it's bullshit.
I understand about others coming forward with potential new evidence, but personally I don't think that's a worthy trade off.
Is it not legal to sue the newspaper for damaging personal image in this case?
