Information of this kind in the media should be restricted in a good way.

The spread of detailed description of crimes in the media does produce a negative outcome.
In my opinion, I agree that some restrictions should be placed on this kind. However, I also believe that restriction does not mean ban.
First, revealing the kind of information in an unsuitable way can cause more crimes happen. This is the major reason is that criminals easily to find ways to avoid police and achieve evil plans. The "Red River murders" has set an example. After the police disclosed details when they arrested the killer, a copycat crime happened with a more clever plan as the criminals guess the police position from the news, just a few days later.
In contrast, the absolute restriction should not be encouraged in modern society. The public can protect themselves by remembering details such as some deceitful tricks in high-crime areas. A recent study, from the Department of Psychology at the University of Bath, showed that the educational programs and articles can contribute a lot to notice people and avoid danger from crimes. Thus, the blackout has never to be a positive way to create an anti-crime society.
In conclusion, criminal details should be under censorship. It is wise that some criminal videos are published after viewed by the relevant authorities.
