A man with a half pound of meth was arrested after a traffic stop in north Orange County, but the article failed to name the person arrested. This seems to be a common occurrence in articles lately. Are suspected criminals no longer named to protect their identity?
Our woke state legislators passed a law to protect the identity of criminal suspects. They care more for the criminals than the victims!!!
