"...A person botched an attempt to rob Stiaes and fatally shot him instead..."

Does anyone else find something innately offensive about that statement? This sounds like it was written by the same people who describe 9/11 as a "man-caused disaster".

“Does anyone else find something innately offensive about that statement?”

Yes - it sounds as if the writer were saying, “had the thief performed his armed robbery in a more professional manner, this unfortunate ‘accident’ wouldn’t have occured.” As if the armed thug who killed this poor guy just needs a bit more training in order to “get it right” next time.
