See WP:BLP1E. Wikipedia shouldn't be a publisher of true crime stories. This person has no historical significance that would merit an article, nor are there any truly biographical sources (where he, rather than the one event he gained notoriety for, is the subject of the source). He committed a murder that was briefly the subject of news reports, and that is all. But Wikipedia is not a newspaper. Delete. Dominic·t 21:06, 8 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per BLP1E indeed. All articles, although spread out over some months, are related to him being arrested and then convicted. No indication that this murder and conviction have any further significance. Fram (talk) 08:56, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
