Do you have a running reference list in your mind of all the people found guilty of violent crime in recent decades ?

Of course not, but since he was actually convicted, it should be part of public record. Especially since he was convicted of rape. Same as if he was convicted of murder. Only one reason you wouldn't want people to know...

Why wouldn't it reduce harm? At least people can avoid him, especially females.

That's exactly what happened ?

The suppression order was in place for many months while his trial was on going. After he was convicted, the suppression order was lifted within a week.

Are you really complaining that it took them a week to lift the suppression order ?
