lol is this a gimmick account?

Based on the IP address it appears not to be.

However, I see no reason to delete this.

I don't care whether that was a gimmick account. How about blocking out the home address? If you don't have a policy which covers posting that level of personal information about people in general, and minors in particular, now is a good time to make one.

I thought about making a poll, but this should be guided by good sense, not a vote. I think the overwhelming majority would say that including her full name and home address didn't make the story better in any way, and the overwhelming majority of us would not want our home addresses posted, or those of our kids.

I just copied and pasted straight from a news story. Any issue you have with the posting of her full name and city should be taken up with the news report. (I'll see if I can find it and link to it.)
