To help deter those who may commit atrocious crimes such as the "Dark Knight Rises" mass shooting in Colorado, or the recent "Sandy Hook Elementary School" shooting in Connecticut, the name(s) of the offending parties should not be released to the public.
These people who carry out heinous acts will be forced to think twice before committing crimes against society because they will never get recognition for what they've done.
Let us not speak in ignorance to say that this would completely resolve the problem, but let us also understand that any deterrent is a good thing.
