The family of the man killed by a tiger asks people to stop sharing video of his death. An inquest is to open
The family of William Chapman, the former child actor killed by a tiger at a wildlife park, asked people to stop sharing video of the attack after Mr Trump posted an AI clip of himself with a tiger, Reuters, CTV News, the Guardian, the Evening Standard and the Mirror reported. Piers Morgan called the post 'appallingly tasteless', according to several outlets that quoted him. The Evening Standard and Sky News reported that an inquest into his death is to open.
The case combines a death, a family's grief and a political leader's choices on social media. An inquest examines how someone died and can make recommendations about safety.
If you are a visitor to a wildlife park, you may see new safety measures after the inquest.
The inquest, not the argument over the video, will answer how the death happened. Watch what the coroner is told about the enclosure.
