Lily And The LA Weekly

The July 30 issue of LA Weekly has an article about the loss of Lily Burk, the 17-year-old murdered last week in downtown Los Angeles. What the story doesn’t mention – and I respect the author’s need to maintain journalistic distance in the face of such a horrifying event – is that Lily was once a part of the Weekly community. Her father is Greg Burk, a journalist who worked at the paper for over two decades.
