It isn't a matter of sensationalism. If cops involved in these raids were routinely named in newspapers, their names could be searched to see if they were involved in more than one such clusterf--k, to see if there is a pattern in their behavior.
Printing one side of a story, while making accusations is wrong. The wronged person does not get any chance to defend himself and gets smeared in the newspaper. In our particular incident, the officer was getting threats from as far away as Moscow. And the story in the paper was not true.
And in this particular case, these cops were doing their job. They were brought into the school at the request of the school, regardless if they found something or not. If they were told there were weapons and drugs in the school they did what they were supposed to do.
People don't like it but the people are barking up the wrong tree in my opinion.
