My understanding is some of the newspapers have been trying to contact friends only, because they don't want to bug the families. I agree though.
I e-mailed a G&M reporter criticizing this piece (
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/...ticle18037787/) because they used the accused's picture as the preview piece as well as right above the victims. I feel order is important, and it is hugely disrespectful to profile the accused right directly above the victims. Perhaps I'm just being nitpicky, but I suggested he should be on the bottom, not the top if they're going to do a "general profile" of all involved.
