If a man is accused of raping a woman his name is made public even if he is proven to be not guilty?

the woman if she she made a false claim has her identity kept secret. If a man rapes a child his name is not revealed, Is this a double standard

If a man is charged with the crime of rape, his name is made public. If a woman is charged with the crime of falsely claiming she was raped, her name is made public.

If anyone is charged with a crime, it is public record (withthe exception of minors).

If it can be proved to be a legitimately false claim, the woman will be named. The problem is, there are plenty of cases where the woman didn't consent, but the man legitimately thought she did.

That isn't rape, but it sure as hell seems like it to the woman.

You are discussing the policies of media, not any law. The names are available to anyone who wishes to sit in the courtroom. Many media outlets have policies about publishing names, but no law controls those policies.

The sad thing is the media and law agencies release pictures and addresses of these people as soon as the lynch mob arrests him. They ruin his life and put his photo every where then when he is found innocent, he has no job, no home, no prospect of ever having a normal life like before. Females who falsely accuse men for molestation or rape need to be executed on the spot.
