Living Person Flag

As painful and sad as it is under the circumstances, the Living Person edit flag should be removed as the suspect has admitted culpability, both he and the prosecution acknowledge that the subject is deceased, and a body has been recovered.

In the WikiProject banner shell there is the option for an "Other" version of the Living Person flag that notes that while the victim has been murdered, others that are the subject of this article are still alive. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 06:03, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redundancy

People, I know this case is tragic, but please, PLEASE do not simply copy news reports to the bottom of the investigation section. This has over time resulted in redundancy and poor readability (e.g. mentioning 3 times in 3 different phrasings that the perpetrator has been sentenced to life no parole). Where new facts arise, find the right place in the case chronology and edit them into the existing copy.
