Quote - Not that I would photograph someone puking in the street myself. (Not my style at all)  But, Why can Paparazzi get away with stuff like this all the time?

If he was on a public street taking pics it should be ok (IMO).

Hey but I'm no lawyer.

I've got a feeling that if it is someone famous it is "in public interest" to be able to publish that photo.  But yeah - i get your point.  And the chivalrous comment by the judge was really rather the opposite of what chivalry should be... princesses in distress locked up by evil fathers ring any bells?
