Only release details of an individual when found guilty of a criminal offence

Petition Details

Protect the members of the public by only releasing an individuals personal details upon a guilty plea or being found guilty of a criminal offence. Too many lives are ruined or severely affected by press coverage before being found guilty of the offence in question.

Additional Information

To protect the livelihood and future of individuals who may have been wrongly accused and charged with an offence. Individuals should not be ‘singled out’ or ‘named and shamed’ for an offence they have not committed. A potentially innocent individuals information should always be protected in line with the Data Protection Act to prevent further discrimination and the risk of developing/progressing mental health issues.
