I'm not sure what the right answer on this one it. I certainly see the argument that this is public information, yet also that out of respect for the family showing the images doesn't add a lot of value.
It sounds like these images are especially troubling. I think the fair play is to delay using them until the family has time to mourn, and then only use them as appropriate if it's necessary to tell an important story.

I respect them families honor to not publish a picture. However, just having a list in the paper of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice is not enought, IMHO.
