But corpses of minors is almost certainly against the law to show. I know there are a bunch of American laws regarding privacy protection of minors that don't apply to adults (but IANAL so...). That's something I remember from my journalism class: you can almost do any reporting you like on adults, but if children are involved its way, way more legally difficult to stay in the clear.

For example: if a minor commits a crime and is charged as a child, you are NOT allowed to publish the name of the child. This is to protect their permanent record, so that they have a better chance of reform as they grow up. If they're charged as an adult, I think the rules are different.

This also happened outside of the USA. The US has its own laws, while other countries have their laws. I'm sure details are different.
