How about something like the "Denied Claim Hero"?

Wouldn't positive wording be more appropriate given the public response?

It'd feed into wording something like "Might need to re-think automatically denying that claim, as the Denied Claim Hero is still at large".

Encouraging murder is generally frowned upon.

Agreed. The favourable public response to the news is rather unusual.

Well I'm not saying I necessarily agree with it, but it begs the question of whether 'celebrating' (or, perhaps, simply not mourning) the death of some individuals is actually wrong? This would be different than encouraging/celebrating the murder itself.

I also think it bears consideration what 'public response' means here. Obviously I am just one person, but nobody I know (personally, or in the communities I'm in) has celebrated this in any capacity, let alone applauded the murderer. Are we basing public perception mostly on social media comments, which are a selective representation of public opinion at best, and blatantly fraudulent at worst?

I wonder how most of the world reacted to the news of the death of the leader of Hamas... or how they'd react to the news of Putin's death. Etc, etc.

BTW thinking the comments of people outside of your bubble to be fraudulent seems... elitist.

Well I didn't say that, and I even noted that I recognize my bias in the matter, but ignoring the widespread use of bots to shape narratives online for various purposes and taking social media comments at face value to indicate actual public perception in 2024 seems... naive.
