I’m confident that most of us are anti-pedo, but if he’s doing something that interferes with the administration of justice, he’s not helping the cause.
This has nothing to do with the administration of justice. We sequester juries in this country, so that people can freely report on the news of the day. We actually care about free speech in this country. What the UK is doing is unfathomable in this country. They routinely issue blanket prior restraints on all speech pertaining to a trial and, in the case of an alleged violation, forego a jury trial, declare a person in contempt and proceed with sentencing.
