Morbid pictures - Freedom of speech?

This family by FAR should win this legal battle. The CHP officers that took the horrible pictures
deserve to have their jobs removed and to be either fined HEAVILY or thrown in prison for a few years.
It surprises and disgusts me, some of the things said about this girl. Although she had it all, that doesn't mean she deserved a gruesome death. People don't seem to understand that passing judgement will shrink your mental capacity so much that you end up not ever having lived life to the fullest because you didnt let people in over what you believed is true about them. I bet this girl had a great personality, and even if she was snobbish and spoiled she was still a person, and NO ONE deserves to have their post-mortem pictures floating around the internet like some kind of freak show.

The internet should be restricted more than newspapers about this. People assume that just because the internet isn't something you can hold in your hand or burn or put through a shedder that it isn't quite as used as newspapers and magazines. Of course it is. It's used by billions of people every day, and some people should be prosecuted for some of the things they do on it.
Stealing media is one thing but actually making a point to break someone down, to hurt them the way that these sick freaks have tried to hurt that girls family... It's just depressing.

This has nothing to do with free speech. If the CHP officers decided to post those pictures in a newspaper or personally walk up to the father of the girl that was killed and hand the photos to him, the situation would be alot different. But because of the circumstances, NO ONE is being prosecuted and this poor family is being emotionally beaten and tortured because of morbid and sick people.

Those photos should never have been released in the first place, and if they were top secret Government photos, the CHP officers would probably already have been classified as "terrorists" and been put to death. But this is far more important, this vastly effects the way that everyone in the world views the internet. The internet is place for the worst kinds of things, and even though it's helpful, it seems like this stunt pulled by officers of the LAW will only add to the vile and disgusting content already on the internet.
