The THIRD-LARGEST in American history. Almost $2 TRILLION in a year. The government spent 37% more than it collected. And somehow, this isn’t the biggest financial story in America right now. 1111659

edschechter.bsky.social @edschechter.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Point taken -- that certainly seems to be the consensus here. I'm just old enough to remember a few cases -- the Duke Lacrosse case is one -- where the defendants where exonerated, and wonder what purpose was served by airing their names. But maybe that's enough of an outlier not to matter? 100
edschechter.bsky.social @edschechter.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Same reason accusers get a privilege other accusers don't (correctly). Reputational damage is immense. Probably disqualifier for any job except President, whatever the verdict in the case is. Duke Lacrosse case is an example of why you do the trial first. If guilty, throw them to the gators. 200

She should be Jane Doe, but the defendents (who have not yet been found guilty by a jury of their peers) should (IMHO) be John Does until proven guilty. The put their names on every billboard. 000
edschechter.bsky.social @edschechter.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Appreciate. If they are convicted, put their names on every headline. But we do have this theory of innocent until proven guilty, and that hasn't happened, yet. 200
edschechter.bsky.social @edschechter.bsky.social · 25/09/2026... accused rapists. There's a presumption of innocent until proven guilty. Once they are convicted, put their name in every headline. 300
edschechter.bsky.social @edschechter.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Because they're accused, not convicted. Once they are convicted put them in every headline. If it turns out one was elsewhere, his reputation is still ruined. The legal system does have a presumption of innocence, until proven guilty. 700
edschechter.bsky.social @edschechter.bsky.social · 25/09/2026No, of course she shouldn't be named. But I'm not sure what purpose it serves naming the defendents either before they are found guilty. 200
