    The killers names are on the internet.

    Shouldn't we publish their names and addresses on here?

    I do understand what you mean, but surely, no matter what happened to one as a kid, meting it all out to one's own baby is unforgivable?

    We are simply blessed with a government that is all too happy to reward failure (e.g. Give homes to ill-educated little strumpets whose only recognised skill is in opening their legs and getting knocked-up!), and penalise endeavour (e.g. Taxing the beejeezus out of anyone that is on more than the minimum wage + tax credits!)

    Secrecy is in general automatic in family law and child protection. This general principle applies from the start, in order to ensure that children's identity etc are not divulged, for their protection.

    It is a general rule, not an ad hoc action in one case.

    It depends on the nature of the crime doesn't it?

    A lot of new crimes have been created in the last ten years under the banners of anti-social behaviour & terrorism which criminalises behaviour which would have previously been accepted.
