They must have changed the linked article. I don't see that anywhere (nor in the video). Just that they were in the elevator together.

Hence why I said "news coverage", not "the linked article". In Lagos we've been following this story for over half a day now - here's the article that broke the story https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc-crime/ny-headless-t...

But this specific article makes no mention about it.

Personally I think it common sense that an out-of-state, local paper (the article is from ABC 7 Chicago) can hardly be taken as a primary source in a developing crime story - hence why I said "news coverage" and gave details.

Local papers are just about the best possible news source you can have. Not to mention they are the actual primary sources that your nebulous 'news coverage' would be relying on.

Here on HN the articles that start conversations are often not the articles that later people read because the URLs get changed. There needs to be some obvious indication of that so that people are discussing the same thing.

"Suspect" is OK, but "killer"? Offering conclusions before a proper investigation has been conducted isn't police work, it's gossip.

The actual police haven't even ruled it a homicide yet. I'd suggest reading a range of news coverage and not taking the paraphrased words in an article that's itself a summary of coverage from elsewhere as literal quotes.

There are official classifications, and there are clear classifications.

This is the latter. You don't lose your head and limbs by natural causes, and an accident ending with body parts stuff in bags is unlikely.

The rather clear point was that law enforcement is not in fact jumping to conclusions as they were accused of, but alright.
