To be quite honest, given that it already happened online, and the depravity of the crimes involved, news agencies should have been taking clear notice it didn't happen again.
I would feel bloody awful if that was my name, and my picture got posted, given the torrents of abuse he got on twitter after the first time the picture was incorrectly posted.

I see they have now changed the picture.
How much luck would I have suing Google if my name was Ian Watkins and I got abuse?
I find it ridiculous. I see your point, but suing Google is purely to get money.

He hasn't sued anyone yet, but making murmurs that you might generally stop other news agencies being silly enough to repeat an error a third time.
Who should he sue then?
The man has been wrongly associated with some of the most vile crimes in modern history.

No. The chappy who committed the crimes in the first place.
Are you proposing this method for just this type of crime or all? Because if for all that would get quite confusing after a while.
