It's Murat I feel most sorry for. Almost certainly guiltless of anything other than trying to do what he could to aid the search, and being a bachelor; yet his name, address, personal circumstances etc. were splashed across every newspaper, etc. in the land. How on earth is the man ever supposed to get his life back to normal? Same with the initial suspect in the Ipswich murders (the supermarket worker later released without charge). Surely we could legislate to prevent the publication of suspect details in these kinds of cases, at least up until the point when the trial (if there ever is one) takes place?
