This story comes from the Daily Mirror and was written by Gail Shortland .
The tone of writing is very opinionated and presents the story as almost a piece of gossip rather than an objective report of what happened in this case.
The man in the above photograph Daniel Wozniak, murdered both Sam Herr, 26 and Julie Kabuishi, 23 in an attempt to steal $40,000 to pay for his wedding and honeymoon the following week.
I found this story interesting because of the inclusion of the men's occupation, like it had something to do with the motive or the execution of the murders. The writer stressed very strongly about how much of a good person Sam was and how the tragedy was emphasised as it was done to someone who 'defended their country'which somehow suggests that his death is a greater loss than Julie's or if he were not a solider- even though as a solider serving in Afghanistan Herr is most likely to have killed others himself due to the nature of his work.
I personally think that the way in which this story is presented takes away from the seriousness and sadness of what has actually happened and makes it seem like a bad plot for a serial drama.
