Basically not notable - small time crook with some convictions. In addition, this is a BLP with poor sourcing.
If anyone is interested in helping, we've got scores of "crime family" BLPs in the attached categories, most are of questionable notability, and many are also sourced from primary sources (DOJ inmate locators) and court-transcripts reproduced on fanboy sites. When I say lots, I mean lots. A review is essential (taking into account heightened BLP standards since many were created) and a clear-our IMO desirable. Scott Mac 15:29, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - Myself, I'm less concerned with matters of notability and use of "primary sources" than I am with UNSOURCED BLPs in this area. Attack those first, assuming you have a queue. Carrite (talk) 16:59, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
