After looking at the website http://picktheperp.com, I was overwhelmed with a feeling of nausea. Not only are these people demoralized on the internet, but they were not convicted of any crime and don’t deserve that type of public disgrace. This site should not be legal and it is apparent that the creators of this site are reaping the monetary rewards from someone else’s worst nightmare.
I don’t see any positive reason for creating this website since the person in question has not even been convicted. If a person is seen on that site, unfortunately, they will be presumed guilty whether or not they are innocent since we all are aware of “what you see is what you get.” The creators are just playing games with what is public record and I find that obscene.
Obviously, there are those people that deserve to be displayed in that manner after being convicted, but let’s take a step back. Keeping that in mind, did the creator of “Pick the Perp” ever think twice about what kind of damage that site could do for a child of a parent or relative who is under investigation? I am sure if he or she did, this would not be on line.
Honestly, this type of public disgracing seems extremely archaic. It has no value and everyone looses. I truly am shocked and feel there is absolutely no reason for a site like this to exist. In the year 2009, we should have moved way beyond degrading someone to entertain ourselves.
