Thanks. I knew there was way more to the story and have just been waiting for more information.

There's still more, I'm sure. On one level it would be appropriate for the family to be left alone in this genuinely tragic situation. On another, though, given what a national drama this became, it would be appropriate for an investigative reporter to dig properly into the story. (E.g., how did the activists latch on to it?)

That's one of the most tragic elements of the story: The family's voice has absolutely been crushed under the entire media circus.
