Name change
Notifications OFF
Evening,
I was wondering if anyone's partner had changed their name prior to being charged and if this helped when it came to press?
I'd read about it somewhere but don't know if anyone who has done it.
Any information welcome - thank you xx

Hi,
My husband (separated) did.
He changed it before charges were made, so he was charged in the new name. He did it via deed poll. He contacted the officer in charge of the investigation and told him of the name change and made sure it was listed as his new name , not just an alias. He also made clear that he'd changed his name in order to protect our child from being associated with his crimes..
The new name was read out in court and printed in the media/online. Old name was mentioned once and reporter didn't pick up on it.
His photo was still published so everyone knew anyway, but it's helpful for the Google effect in the future.
Good luck!
