Judge Megan Marshall emphasized the need to protect the privacy and emotional well-being of the victims' families by blocking images that could provoke distress, stating that such visuals would serve little public interest in light of the ongoing trauma for those affected by the crime. While other investigation records may still be available, the most disturbing images will be redacted to shield loved ones from further suffering.
