Protection from trial by media

Additional Information

A law to be introduced to protect people from trial by media.In high profile cases a persons identity and personal details must remain secret until it reaches trial date. A persons right to privacy must be honored to prevent the media frenzy that can give a false image of the person involved. This would prevent the person being able to rebuild their lives if they are released without charge or a case is dropped.
