OK: so, just the facts: brutal murders were committed by a gang popularly known as the Shankhill butchers, using horrific and primitive means,from which one can draw legitimate inference as to the true motivators for the manner of selection, abuse and dispatch of their victims. What the victims said is hearsay. Strip it out. What the motivation was e.g. "more like serial killers" is speculative albeit with classical indicators towards a non-political motive. Let the horrible deeds speak for themselves and confine the article to reportage. The personal testimonies, while deeply moving and affecting, are not objective fact but the testimonies of families whose loss was and remains immense. Future generations will judge these murderers all the more accurately if we present them with the simple,awful deeds on their own.
