When the doorbell rang, one of her daughters answered it thinking it was The Postman - instead a female journalist said: " I'm really sorry for your loss, do you want to talk to me about your brother, what was he like? "
" We hadn't been officially told that Martyn had died until about 10 o'clock in the evening, " Ms Murray said. " I didn't really appreciate my 16-year-old to be told by A Journalist that her brother had Passed Away . "

" They took photos from my husband's Facebook without permission and printed The Photos in The Paper like they had done an interview with him, " one person recalled.

The Independent Press Standards Organisation - which counts many of the UK's biggest newspapers as members - has that says enquiries or approaches " must be made With Sympathy and discretion".
