So say, if I was accused of murder or rape, and they put my name and photo in the paper (I have not done these things) would that be assuming I'm guilty. I don't think so.Simply putting your name and photo doesn't assume you're guilty. Putting your name and photo for the purposes of encouraging the other victims of your wrong doings come forward however does assume you are guilty before proven guilty.
I am against posting pictures of people on paper unless and until they are proven to be guilty, even in the rape cases the accused's photos are published but the supposedly victim's isn't. The reasoning for posting the photo of the accused is that it'll encourage the other victims of his rapes come forward which is treating the accused as a rapist before analysing evidence and arriving at whether the accused is innocent or guilty. Essentially anyone accused of rape is by default a rapist until the accused can provide enough evidence to prove innocence. (Guilty until proven innocent.)
If your just going to cherry pick my posts I'm not continuing.
