I haven't been following this news story at all, but I checked last night to see if the verdict was in, and I was *appalled*.
I couildn't believe the testimony about a former child star by *name* was allowed at all. Perhaps it might personalize things for the jury, but I can't think that worth *at all* the embarassment they are putting on a person who was a child at the time this was allegedly happening. I thought it was required that minors be referred to without name if they aren't involved in the trial.
I can't believe the judge is allowing that.
