I'm not sure that he can claim "we posted the video in the interest of the public". What his site does is glorify actual violence, not some made up alternate reality. However, as repugnant and vile as I find the content of this site, I cannot see any criminal liability (atleast here in the U.S.)--civil liability may a different matter. Courts may award the family with a portion of the profits from this video.
