Innocent until proven guilty: Naming potential sexual offenders before court appearancesIt was the second day in court for Caroline Peters, who is facing a criminal charge for allegedly identifying a man accused of a sexual offence before he entered a plea. Prosecutors argue that by naming the accused, she contravened a section of the Criminal Procedure Act designed to protect the identity of those facing rape allegations until formal pleas are made. Outside the court, supporters say the case raises broader concerns about gender-based violence, survivor advocacy, and the limits of free expression.
