"Pedo" What part of "suspect" is confusing to you? Or do you have conclusive information others don't?
"Suspect" means not found guilty but under investigation. It's misused when a convicted criminal is called a "suspect". In this case the guy has been arrested for something else and is now a suspect and being investigated for C.P. I don't understand your point.
My point is that guilt is being assumed and implicitly proclaimed by labeling this individual a "Pedo" when there is no evidence that he is one. Why?
What would you call him? Someone is investigated for child porn, there hasn't been a trial so guilt or innocence isn't known, but there is evidence. Im not being snide, what would you call him?
At worst, "suspected pedo". "Child-porn suspect" seems reasonable at this point, and is accurate. What evidence is there, in this case?
The Feds keeping anyone in jail for not decyprting hard drives i.e. A privacy issue is the important thing here.
This^ much as his suspected crimes are egregious, its a long slippery slope ladies and gents, and isn't it a right somewhere to refuse to incriminate oneself.
Indeed. Now, what is the relationship between severity of an accusation and accuracy of that accusation?
Would it be a terrible burden to add the word "suspect" to the title, after "pedo," at least until the guy is found guilty?
