This post lands randomly...
I am seeing many posts sleuthing the family’s and boyfriend’s social media. This is against TOS. I am having technical issues with the forum right now and may not be able to get to some. Be mindful of the following rules while posting:

Not Allowed
Social media pages that fall in the following categories are OFF LIMITS.
Family members of either a victim or a suspect
Friends of either a victim or a suspect
Most any other individual
Don't link to these pages, nor make reference to information you find on them.
Rules - Etiquette & Information
The "victim friendly" rule extends to the family members of victims and suspects. Sleuthing family members, friends, and others who have not been designated as suspects is not allowed. Don't make random accusations, suggest their involvement, nor bash and attack them. Posting their personal information, including names, addresses, and background data -- even if it is public -- is not allowed. That does not mean, however, that statements made by family members and other third parties cannot come into discussion as the facts of the case are reported in the media.
