"Specially not when your face has already been in the Sunday papers, thus possibly prejudicing a trial???"

Well spotted, Guest. You'd think it was obvious, wouldn't you? But apparently, the thrill of having a good story seems to be clouding editors' judgement.
The police are circulating a letter to the media, asking them not to publish material that may hinder the investigation, especially where identification might be an issue, or it may prejudice a fair trial.

They say: "We strongly advise you to take legal advice before naming any individual or individuals."

Funny how Mudcatters can spot the pitfalls, but not experienced meedja men. And his picture's still on the BBC News site.
