    It always bothers me so much how someone who “allegedly” committed a crime can have his photo and full name published in the newspaper in the US.

      Yep. Horrifying. That’s some sort of mob justice right there, IMO. Who still needs a trial after that, and if you’re found innocent it’s up to you to sue the newspaper for defamation. Or the police department, good luck with that.
