Sometimes the coverage is because the victim or the perpetrator are famous or notable in their own way; sometimes it's the circumstances of the crime. This crime may or may not have major historical significance. You're right in

I do not believe we should be exactly the same as an encyclopedia on paper, we aren't and will never be Brittanica, but I do think that crimes like this (which happen every x minutes) are outside of the scope of an encyclopedia. The fact that there are sources doesn't make it worthy of inclusion in
