Death of Nicole van den Hurk[edit]

(

)

... that following the death of Nicole van den Hurk, her stepbrother falsely confessed to killing her to get her body exhumed for DNA testing? Source: "In an interview on Thursday, Andy van den Hurk said he confessed to his stepsister's murder in January 2011 in an attempt to get her body exhumed. "I wanted to get her exhumed and get DNA off her. I kind of set myself up and it could have gone horribly wrong," he said."

Not new enough now, but it was when you submitted it and I'm pretty sure that's allowed. Long enough, and from what I can tell from the english sources it's within policy. Hook is short enough and very interesting but you didn't actually link to your own article... I've made the bold assumption that it's Death of Nicole van den Hurk and fixed the link for you. No image to review so you're good there. Looks like your QPQ is exempt so you should be good to go. Sa An Ke 06:59, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

Thank you! Yes that was the article, I forgot to link it (I've uncapitalised it in the hook for grammar reasons). And this is my first DYKN so I am QPQ-exempt. Once again thanks! Linguist¹ 1 ¹ 13:12, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
