'The End Violence Against Women Coalition (EVAW) has urged for the campaign to be dropped, claiming it to be "misdirected". '
'The BBC radio presenter and Sir Cliff Richard, who both had cases against them dropped, are fronting a campaign calling for suspects to remain nameless until they are charged. '

It's in V/Worldnews so? Or am I misunderstanding? do you mean there's no crisis in the U.S. or that the accused should not be anonymous?
