Name suppression in my opinion is one of the very few problems with this country. How can someone commit a crime no matter what it is and not be named for it publicly as it may affect his image?
Another case in Queenstown court today about the bloke wanking in public. Again name suppression. Why? And what about that actor/tv person last year who was getting done for doing something not right with children or women. I can't remember the details but again name suppression as if convicted would hurt his career? If you do what he did you're going to jail and have fucked your own career.
I have been in this country for 10 years now and love the place but things like this make me wonder how far behind the place is. In the UK there was no such thing as name suppression. The only names withheld were those of victims not the one responsible.
Someone made a comment that the locals in Queenstown will know soon enough. They probably do but because of name suppression they'll be the ones in trouble for talking about it
