Sometimes newspapers make me angry. In the UK a young woman was murdered just before Christmas and a man has just been charged with her killing. The Daily Telegraph, reporting the story, said this, (my emphasis):
Quote:
Vincent Tabak, 32, a Dutch national, who lived next door to Miss Yeates in the Clifton area of Bristol, will appear before the city’s Magistrates Court on Monday charged with murdering the 25-year-old landscape architect.
He was arrested in the early hours of Thursday morning following a month long police investigation.
Detectives questioned the former PhD student for three days before announcing he had been charged with her murder on Saturday night.
David and Theresa Yeates yesterday expressed their relief following the latest development in the case and said they want to face Tabak in court when he appears.
Speaking from their £600,000 home in Ampsfield, Hants, Mr Yeates, 63, an IT professional said: "We don't yet know if we will go to Magistrates' Court…but we do want to see Vincent Tabak sometime.

What I want to know is WTF the value of the young woman's parent's house has got to do with anything - why is it necessary to included that in the report?
