She is innocent until proven guilty in court. But, I think, for the reporter to include all of the available public information about the story is fine. The press is free to publish and report public information. So, they reported her name, address, age, bail amount, and other public information about the case. If they are going publish a report, they may as well be as complete as possible. I guess the only relevant part of the story is that she lives in The Villages, so to include her address makes it even more accurate. So, I don't have a problem with the news story.
