Why was the AIBU thread

'To think that this man should not be allowed to live in student halls'

deleted?

Deletion message states that personal information was divulged, but it wasn't: there was a link to legitimate news sites that reported the info. Public domain!

Why are you more interested in protecting a violent criminal than the youngsters he may gain access to? Why can't we discuss this?

Hi folks - so sorry, it looks like this was deleted in error. We'll reinstate it shortly.

To be brutally honest, it was pretty much just a big error of judgement on our part - a cock up, rather than a conspiracy if you like. There was confusion over whether this was an active police investigation - and, obviously, that's not the case here. We're sorry for the upset caused - this is an important discussion.
