Whatever happed to the American way of Innocent until proven guilty. Now people are convicted in the court of public opinion just because someone makes an accusation.
In the court of public opinion right or wrong innocent until proven guilty does not apply.

Its a real miscarriage of justice. This man will probably loose everything he has even if he is found innocent. I don't think they should make accusations of this nature public.
This poor bugger is already guilty, the possibility of a fair trial is almost non existent once the media, facebook and twitter brigade get finished with him.
Now its so bad that if you get caught taking a whiz at night in the bushes and some old bag calls the cops you get listed as a level three sex offender (it happened to a guy, his photo is hanging in the Police station as a flasher).
My God half of Paris would be posted on the wall if they did that in France.
