Quoting: Do you see what I see Reading the article, it appears they will post the info when they arrest people, not after conviction or charges filed. It sounds like they will just round them up, post their names, and charge them later. Praise God from Whom all Blessings flow !!!

A lot of people are arrested and then let go, and NOT charged. Praise God from Whom all Blessings flow !!!
