Should child criminals be granted anonymity?

How utterly evil is this 17 year old ? Of course he murdered that poor woman. Nobody else was involved.

About time---the murderer has been revealed ! Let it continue regardless of age. If I were that poor woman's family I'd want his face to be shown around the world.

Not many surprises lookout: very low IQ, autism and ADHD diagnosis. Where did he get the idea of murder from? Does he know right from wrong? I assume he does or the M'Naghten rules come into play and he would end up in Broadmoor. https://www.lancs.live/news/lancashire-news/who-rocky-price-lindsay-birbecks-18748174

They’ve named him today.

Sentenced to life ? He should be sentenced to death !!

I agree Lookout, his parents are fighting it, he was caught wheeling the body in a wheelie bin and said a man had paid him to get rid of the body.  He’d never seen this man  before and he never left the money.

I wish they'd stop using excuses like ADHD, Autism and a low IQ. Many people have these but don't use it as a passport to murder. Born evil, I'd have said.
It's only 12 months ago when a similar low-life dragged and killed a policeman along a road under the vehicle it was driving.

How the jury fell for that one I will never know Lookout, 14 stone man being dragged and he said he didn’t know he was there, if a paper/plastic bag gets caught anywhere on your vehicle, you hear and feel it.

I wonder if he had a point to prove after his parents named him after the American boxer Rocky Marciano? He is certainly very strange (insane?). The parents are in denial. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8627271/Teenage-traveller-17-named-Rocky-Marciano-jailed-life.html

Makes you wonder Steve, they made a point that he was strong?  A woman said she’d been lucky earlier with him prowling around.  What is the world coming too, he even tried to saw her leg off.

Parents are bound to be insane too.

Another case here. I wonder what the criteria are for changing the stock "cannot be named for legal reasons" are? https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/third-teenager-charged-with-murder-of-extremely-likeable-lad-who-was-found-in-churchyard/ar-BB180a2b?ocid=msedgntp

I like the letter from the person who calls him/herself " coolhand ". What a great answer to the increase in violence that we're seeing.

Does the public always have a right to know, will the naming and shaming act as a deterrent, will the publicity harm the chance of rehabilitation:

69% of child criminals go on to reoffend.

The Edlington Two granted lifelong anonymity: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-38263416

Angela Wrightson killers granted anonymity: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tees-47713853

Will Cornick named: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2014/nov/03/will-cornick-leeds-ann-maguire-murdered-teacher-jail

[lookout]

The public have a right to know who they're living next door to or who prospective neighbours will be, so yes, these monsters should be named.
