Lisa Ramsarran, chief crown prosecutor for CPS Thames and Chiltern, said: “Our thoughts remain with the Hunt family and all those who have been affected by this tragic incident.
“As criminal proceedings are active, there should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online that could prejudice the defendant’s right to a fair trial.”
The three women were found fatally injured at the family home in Ashlyn Close just after 7pm in July.

She was then able to call the police, reporting that she had been shot, as had her mother and sister. She gave her address before the call cut out, the hearing was told.
Senior coroner for Hertfordshire Geoffrey Sullivan heard that officers found Hannah alive in the main doorway of the home.
Carol died from stab wounds to her chest and abdomen, while her daughters Hannah and Louise died from crossbow bolt injuries.

“Over the past couple of months, we have been working hard to gather as much evidence as possible and establish the full circumstances of what happened that day. Today, we have managed to secure charges against Kyle Clifford in connection with the murders of Carol, Hannah and Louise Hunt.
“Although it has taken some time to reach this stage, we can now move forward with the judicial process and seek justice for their family.”
Paying tribute to the three victims, Hunt and his third daughter Amy previously said: "The devastation that we are experiencing cannot be put into words.”
In a further statement read to Sky Sports Racing viewers by his colleague Matt Chapman, he paid tribute to his “magnificently inspirational” surviving daughter.
He said: "Notwithstanding the horrid evil that’s swept through our lives, wreaking devastation on an unimaginable scale, the counter to that has been the breathtaking messages of support, some of which are still to be read. Amy, my eldest daughter, has been magnificently inspirational with her control and support for me, which I am trying, trying so hard, to replicate.
"Every message has felt so important, the same as a reassuring hug. We know people are worried about us. We will get through this."
