Personal
Delete these instructions after filling in personal details about the journalist. What do you know about this person's life outside of career and death? In most cases, you don't need a great amount of detail. You might know where the person was born or where the person lives and about his or her family. You might have learned about their education. What did the person do before he or she became a journalist. Sometimes you know where and when the memorial service was held and where the person is buried. Don't go into any details about how the person died here.

Delete these instructions when you have written about the death of the journalist:
- Use "killed" or "murdered" here. Reserve "died" or "passed away" for natural causes. About the attack: What happened? Include all the important information like who (all parties involved), what, where (all relevant places), when, why and how/how many? What was the journalist doing before he or she was killed? Was the journalist working on any story that may have created enemies? Who last saw this person? Did the person die on the spot or later? Did any other people get killed or injured in the attack? How many perpetrators and who do we know about them? What kind weapon? Was there any possible motive? Was there an investigation? Who led it? Were any suspects charged? Were there any convictions?
