Shameless actress Tina Malone is facing a police investigation and possibly prison after reportedly identifying child killer Jon Venables online, it was claimed.
Police are reported to be 'ready to investigate' posts made by the star after she was accused of breaking a court injunction.
The court order bans photosof Venables or Robert Thompson from being published by anyone in the world, reports Daily Mail.
The actress told the Daily Star Sunday: "I didn't have a clue it was illegal.
"What are you going to do... prosecute me for posting a picture?

Both Venables and Thompson's new identities are secret and their anonymity is funded by the taxpayer.
Two-year-old James Bulger was snatched during a shopping trip to the Strand shopping centre, in Bootle, Merseyside on February 12 1993.
The toddler's battered body was found two days later by children playing on a freight railway line 200 yards from Walton Lane police station, Liverpool, and more than two miles from the Strand shopping centre.
On February 18, Jon Venables and Robert Thompson - both 10-year-olds - were arrested in connection with the murder of James, and later charged.
