I suppose it depends on the crime as to whether or not something should be publicized. In this case, I believe it should have been put out to the public immediately, and it wasn't. That's why I put it out. I put it out to protect people, so that people would know, if they'd seen him, to call the police.
Yes, in some cases maybe it shouldn't be put out, to protect the victim, but in our case, he's a violent offender. He wasn't a sexual offender. His victim didn't live, so we weren't protecting her. We just wanted him found to protect ourselves and to protect the public.
