Again it seems strange, who and when they decide to show someones face. In the UK they would not allow her to be photographed until she has been charged and named before a court, and only then if identification is not an issue, to avoid contaminating the witness evidence. There have been many complaints here about suspects being identified by releasing photos, as until they are convicted they are innocent. Also the charades of re-enactments, simply an opportunity for finger pointing and lining up smiling hordes of uniforms most of whom have played no part in the investigation for the photo call.

Are you sure about your first comment. I thought that there had been a number of cases where the UK police had tipped of the media about the pending arrest of celebrities in order that they were filmed /photographed, wasn’t that the case with Sir Cliff Richards. It has certainly happened in Australia in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've no problem with them not showing anyone's photo or doing any re-enactments but i'm talking about their been no consistency when they choose to do it. Maybe later today you will see some other story and that suspect will have their face on full view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
