Throughout her life Princess Di was a target of the paparazzi. The photographers, journalists, and the public loved her. In return, she gave respect to the paparazzi who deserved it. When she was dating Dodi Al-Fayed and the paparazzi became obsessed with her. In 1997 in Paris Diana and Dodi were leaving the Ritz Hotel when a group of paparazzi on motorcycles began to chase her. Her driver entered a tunnel at around 100 mph. Suddenly, Diana's car crashed into the wall, killing her, the driver, and Dodi. This created a worldwide backlash against the paparazzi.
People around the world urged laws against the paparazzi. The possibility that her death could have been a result of photographers turned many celebrities and magazines against them. Her brother and Dodi's father both blame the paparazzi for the crash. American celebrities started to speak out against the paparazzi, for example, Elizabeth Taylor called the 7 photographers murderers. These 7 photographers were taken into custody.
The most disgusting part about this situation is that one specific photographer took a picture of Princess Diana laying dead in her Mercedes. Harry and William were furious and the world was disgusted. How could someone just stand there and not help her if she was dying? How could someone be so terrible as to take a picture of Diana dead and sell it for money? That right there is the reason why the paparazzi should never be allowed to harm anyone.
