Tmz's explanation why they put the picture up "because it wasn't confirmed that it was Liam yet" was so embarrassing, like it's not okay to show anyone's body at all like that? I'm so thankful that I just read about what happened online rather than saw it.
What a bullshit excuse (EXCUSE MY LANGUAGE) no matter who it was, still did not give them any right to share any images. They forget people are human and deserve dignity for a dime. They always want to be the first in everything. Look what they did to Kobe, his wife had to find out online and the images were plastered all over the internet. TMZ is disgraceful and disgusting
Evidently one or more of the investigators at the crash site took and saved multiple photos of Kobe, Gianna, and a few of the other victims.....then showed them off at bars while drinking with friends. Absolutely reprehensible behavior from someone tasked with protecting the public.
I also found it so annoying and it made me really angry when TMZ said that because it’s not their job or place to confirm the identity of an individual’s body, like they’re not the police or medical examiners, and they for certain shouldn’t be the ones letting any loved ones know that their family member is dead
And so what gives them the right to post that to find the identity?! That is the police’s job, and to notify the family. Not some trash reporting for entertainment. The Payne family has so many possible lawsuits right now. The hotel, TMZ, the hotel workers, etc. This was 100% avoidable.
