Suspect[edit]

I've removed 'unnamed' from references to the main suspect in this case. The suspect is named in many credible places. Law enforcement has discussed their reasons for suspecting him and have not held back from giving plenty of information which specifically identifies him. I think it is best not to put the name here as it does not seem right to stigmatise someone never charged. However, it is clear from other sources, again readily available, that there are no other present suspects. I have therefore altered the chronological paragraphs under 'suspect' to reflect the fact that there is currenly a single strong suspect and the others have been discounted over time. I am not putting citations here in order not to identify the individual myself.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Emmentalist (talkcontribs) 08:48, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the name of the suspect in accordance with WP:BLPCRIME, which states, in part, "For individuals who are not public figures ... editors must seriously consider not including material—in any article—that suggests the person has committed, or is accused of having committed, a crime, unless a conviction has been secured."
