Could someone report on this and it not be “ article is simply monetizing the issue”?

Not using victims name. They are a minor. Report the facts. "A young man was shot dead by a former police officer after the man blew a whole in his front door. The young man had stalked the daughter living at the house." Facts. You'd need far better writing than mine, of course.

The piece is not a report. This is a shock / emotion piece and is part of the US behavior of sexualizing young girls. It is promoting her. You may find it reasonable that a 15 year old girl has one million followers, at least one of whom purchased pictures from her for $300. Or you may not. I'm just saying that the article is part of that system, and that putting yourself out there is going to get this kind of attention and that it demonstrably works as a means to get famous.

It sounds like you want the newspaper to pass judgment on her or something.

Er, I am literally arguing for the opposite: report the facts; protect identity; don't get into the social mores / titillation conversation.
