dmwbkk Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 (edited) Why hide his face? If he is guilty then there should be no issue of making the public aware of who he is and what he looks like. They already stated his name. Edited March 10, 2021 by dmwbkk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has not been found guilty yet, that's why he's entitled to have his face obscured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
