    Perhaps he can make that speech but not sell it so long as it’s profiting from a specific crime that happened?

      That would be in line with laws that already exist in some places. I have no issue with that. The person can still write about their crimes, they just can’t profit from it.

        It’s hard to argue that any kind of publication isn’t for profit though since attention generally means money.

          Which is still only relevant if the person is publishing something about a specific crime they committed.

            Seems they really do gotta have an authentication process pretty much. Like if the dude murdered someone and wants to have a lyric that says “I’m a killa”, is that above board?
