re: #29 jamesfirecat

Can you please find for me where it says that it is illegal for the cops to tell the press what someone they are holding has been accused of?

In fact isn’t the entire point of the Hapeus Corpus that the cops HAVE TO TELL THE PRESS WHAT SOMEONE THEY ARE ARRESTING IS ACCUSED OF?

No, they have to tell you what you are being charged with….and that isn’t habeas corpus.

In fact, it is often better to keep the press out of it until you have all the facts. For the good of both sides.
