Observations from spammers still showing as nearby observations

This user has been suspended:

https://www.inaturalist.org/people/jasmin39

But a number of their observations are still showing up in the nearby observations, and locations for a place. If you click on any of their observations it says “This user was suspended” but the images still show up.

Example observations:
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/34680417
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/34680412
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/34680399
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/34680369

They are all (currently) showing up in the following search:

https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?lat=55.9655007858&lng=11.8684413684&verifiable=true&radius=50&order_by=observed_on&preferred_place_id=6857&locale=en&ttl=-1

Shouldn’t observations of a suspended user be removed from all searches immediately?

Looks like someone inappropriately marked this user as a spammer, but that only applies to commercial content, not other inappropriate behavior.

That said, spam accounts’ observations shouldn’t show up in Nearby Observations.
