A new site aims to deter crime by publicizing arrests.
Matthew* Creed, 30, created BlabberMouthKC.com, where he posts the names, mug shots, and addresses of those arrested in Johnson County, Kan. after their release from jail.
For those who object to having their public record aggregated in such a way, Creed will remove the profiles from his site -- for a fee. Anyone who pays the fee and is subsequently found innocent will be refunded the money. Unsurprisingly, the site has caused a backlash in Johnson County.
See the video above for the full story.
Do you think Creed's business is legit, or should he be shut down? Share your opinion in the comments.
