Three days have passed since the hip-hop artist Nils Grönberg - better known as Einár - was shot to death in southern Stockholm.
Since then, several media houses have sought explanations for the murder in the artist's social media feeds.
Both posts and comments have been analyzed and published.
Amplifies conflicts
But what does an Instagram feed really say about the facts about a person's life?
Media strategist Britt Stakson has delved into the research of the American sociologist Forrest Stuart, which addresses the above issue.
According to Stuart, who lived embedded with young people connected to the gang-criminal environment in the USA, social media can certainly contribute to conflicts being ignited - among other things by more people taking part in the conflicts.
- Challenges where you attack someone, which previously took place on the street corner or in front of a limited group of people, now reach a public arena.
It also reaches a public that is drawn to what is described as "ghetto culture" and gang violence, Britt Stakson explains.
Risk of over-interpretation
But Stuart also warns against over-interpreting what is happening on social platforms and believes that pro-violence posts online rarely lead to violence in real life, according to Stakson.
Could it be that the media overinterprets the posts that are published in these channels sometimes?
- Absolutely.
Using digital channels in conflicts is nothing new.
What journalism needs to do is not take them out of context.
Hear Britt Stakson reason about the headlines that connect the murder of Einár with his social media feed.
