Would you name your partner if he was your best friend, and yet committed a crime that would cause him to lose everything?

If it involved paedophilia, yes, without one single doubt. I might even have my way with him first before turning him in. [/QUOTE]Ditto and ditto. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] I also might punch him in the nose.
But, I get the point. In cases less shocking the pedophelia, I may try to protect my friend. Not because he's a professional comrade, but because he's my friend. As well, I would protect those who were accused but had not yet been found guilty (as I admit is the case with some priests -- with the added layer of convolution that the church
WON'T investigate in some instances also duly noted). Anyway, as I feel Kobe Bryant's identity ought to be kept a secret as much as the golddigger's -- at least let's find out if he's guilty before we ruin his life.
Anyway, you may have picked the wrong question to ask a lawyer -- like guppie-sharks, we eat our own at every available instance.
But, I wasn't attacking anyone or any idea so much as trying to input thoughts into the discourse for consideration.
