British Rape Case Stirs Call to Not Identify Accused
Date: 05 November 1993
By John Darnton
John Darnton
After a much-publicized court case in which a defendant accused of rape was found not guilty, Britain's senior judge has come out in favor of a change in the law to allow a defendant in a rape case to remain unidentified in the press unless and until he is convicted. At a law conference in Brighton over the weekend, Lord Taylor, the Lord Chief Justice, said the law, which permits only the rape victim to remain anonymous, was unfair to the accused. He called for a return to the situation before 1988, when newspaper and broadcasters were allowed to identify the defendant only after he had been found guilty.

DUST off a seat in the press box, boys. Sid Frenkel's back in business.

And now at last, word has reached him over at the Ideal Meat Market that his journalistic skills are once again required.

AMERICAN SHIP SEEKS BANKRUPTCY PROTECTION

The American Ship Building Company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection yesterday, a week after losing an appeal to keep a $176 million Navy contract. The loss of that contract to build two Navy oil tankers left the company with just one $63 million contract to build a Navy surveillance vessel and no commercial work. On Tuesday, the Navy put the company on notice that it would cancel the remaining contract unless the company showed it had the financial means to finish the ship. American Ship, based in Tampa, Fla., had already laid off 1,100 people, leaving an administrative crew of about 50 people. The acting chairman of the company is George M. Steinbrenner, the majority shareholder of the New York Yankees baseball team. His family started the company more than 100 years ago.
