Why doesn The Bee publish all the names of people who are arrested?

As a matter of fairness to those accused of a crime, The Bee’s policy is to report the names of those arrested only if follow-up coverage is planned. This is because many people are released or acquitted after being arrested, and it is impractical to follow up every crime report.
