Spare a thought for a young man called David Calvert who was 'outed' as Jon Venables five years ago.
Now his name is all over the Internet again.
Scouser Mr. Calvert, 27, was threatened and abused and feared for his family's safety when neighbours were told he was one of James Bulger's killers.
Police even installed a panic button in his home in Fleetwood, Lancashire.
The clamour eventually died down when he was interviewed by his local paper and opened up the family album.
Published pictures of him growing up, crucially between the ages of 10 and 18, convinced even his most neanderthal accusers.

I guess this would only really interest our UK residents.
With all the furore with whats going on over Jon Venables' recent arrest, the rumours in Liverpool of who and where he his are rife at the moment.
My brother in law today told me that he is now called (though probably not for much longer) David Calvert, who lives in Fleetwood near Blackpool. Then over the day more people told me the same name.
So after a five min Internet dig I found this:
www.blackpoolgazette.co.uk...
This article was five years old and says that a guy called David Calvert is living in fear after being accused of being Jon Venables after he told a neighbour that he was in prison as a youngster. I don't know how they made a connection from what he said, because strangely enough the article doesn't mention it.
So anyway, the theory goes that this david calvert was arrested for downloading child pornography. And when the neighbours got wind of his arrest they told the media who this guy really is. The government just clamped down and banned the papers from telling us the whole story. Why is anyones guess.
Just thought I'd share it. No doubt there are tons of other rumours, but this one sounds quite plausible.
Any thoughts....?
