Unsure if the Emiliano Sala tragedy has been discussed elsewhere, so here is the latest episode in the saga:
Two to appear in court over Emiliano Sala mortuary photograph
On 23 September 2019:
Sherry Bray, from Corsham, pleaded guilty to three counts of computer misuse, and perverting the course of justice and was sentenced to 14 months in prison; and
Christopher Ashford, from Calne, pleaded guilty to three counts of computer misuse and was sentenced to five months in prison.
Judge Peter Crabtree said: 'You were both driven by morbid curiosity. You have both abused your positions and the access you had in quite an appalling way.
'You both knew it would be a gross intrusion on privacy and respect for the deceased and cause considerable distress to his family if they became aware of that'.

As well as viewing the footage of Emiliano Sala's post-mortem, both
Bray and
Ashford showed images of it to other people and were caught after images ended up circulating on social media.
Police investigated and found a text message exchange between
Bray and
Ashford while the postmortem was taking place.
The first message, from
Bray, read:
“Nice one on table for you to watch when you are next in”, followed by an emoji of a face being sick.
Ashford replied:
“Not from the plane that crashed into the sea?”
Today,
David Henderson pleaded guilty to a charge of attempting to discharge a passenger without valid permission or authorisation.

Henderson will now stand trial accused of endangering the safety of an aircraft, an offence under the Air Navigation Order (2016)
