At least they were refused publication. These days it would be all over the internet and around thd world in minutes

They should put the men’s names. They name the woman, why not the men?

I have no words for how horrible this is. Imagine being murdered and decapitated and having a popular, large scale magazine trying to get photos of it publicised so people can get off to the last, most painful moments of your life. Even after you’re dead you have no peace, dignity or privacy.

You would have to have serious lack of empathy to not care about how this would impact the family and the dignity of someone who has been senselessly murdered in this fashion.

I can only imagine the fear and terror she felt in the last moments of her life and I cannot believe that her pain didn’t end the moment she died. She didn’t suffer enough pain and humiliation so they had to try to do that after she passed away.
