WRTV does not identify juvenile suspects unless they are being charged as adults. WRTV will take great care not to name family members or include other details in our reporting that could lead to the identification of the juvenile suspect.
This policy encompasses all platforms, including broadcast, digital, social and OTT/streaming.
The purpose of this policy is to uphold journalism ethics and standards. It is our responsibility as journalists to always provide fair, balanced, and consistent reporting, particularly in the age of digital media where the stories we choose to publish exist in perpetuity.
