Prohibit the publication of addresses of defendants and convicted offenders

The Government should ban the publication of the address of defendants and anyone found guilty/sentenced in court. Publishing the addresses of individuals in the media can put their family/children at risk from people who might choose to take matters into their own hands. Protect innocent families.
