Cape Girardeau newspaper uses name of Jetton's alleged victim

Breaking with the other newspapers carrying the story and with the Associated Press, the Cape Girardeau Southeast Missourian ran the name of former Speaker of the House Rod Jetton's alleged assault victim.

Surprisingly, not one of the 22 comments had a problem with that decision.

Considering recent facts regarding the case I think it's appropriate.


The original reports sealed guilt with the public.

New facts regarding the case and the character of the accuser are appropriate to question - in addition to the actions of the prosecutor's office.
