If you going to go as far as saying the persons name and everything like that give more details on if she was in the crosswalk? jaywalking? also Drunk? that’s extremely poor ass reporting in my book …

biff

good point. also questionable is that sometimes names are released, sometimes not – while i prefer that names are not released until trial/resolution, there needs to be consistency rather than being left to the whims of whomever is in charge of name releasing.
