Have you considered that sex crimes are also used as tools by "victims",
much
the same as AVOs etc, I don't think it's wise to publish peoples names
because
they have simply been charged. Often charges are brought to bear on the
weight
of hearsay, much like our Texan photographer friend.
My own thoughts are that because of the stigma attached to the accusation,
the names of the innocent should be protected, and that until a guilty
verdict is in place, innocence should be presumed.
Or, if you are going to publish one name, then publish the other if the
charge turns out to be false.
