 One for the Daily Mail haters - Iffy
The Mail - and The Sun - are in official hot water over publishing a picture online of a murder suspect with a gun.

They did so during his trial, and the accusation is the jury could have been influenced against the defendant had they seen the picture.

The trial judge decided to press on, and the defendant was convicted and is now doing a life sentence with a tariff of 14 years.

Both papers have since been charged with contempt of court:
