This article was turned (correctly) into a redirect twice before being reverted by IPs and SPAs. Undoubtedly, the kidnapping and murder of Nicholas Markowitz is a notable incident. However, coverage conveys that Jesse Rugge is only notable for this single incident--a clear WP:BLP1E violation. A biography is simply unnecessary/inappropriate unless you can established his notability outside the crime. TheGracefulSlick (talk) 00:20, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Murder of Nicholas Markowitz (seems most of the content is there - a merge result is also possible if we really want to move over the petition on parole and Alpha Dog). This is actually not a clear BLP1E violation (due to extended coverage - e.g. his parole hearing) and since there is some depth to the coverage (and perp spinout is possible, particularly post-conviction per WP:CRIMINAL) - however as the murder article isn't overly long, and content here is rather sparse - I think a redirect is the correct outcome. Should the murder article be expanded and/or Rugge receive more coverage then this is liable to change.Icewhiz (talk) 14:08, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Murder_of_Nicholas_Markowitz#Legal_outcome where the subject is already mentioned. Not notable outside of the crime and anything worth mentioning about the subject can be done in that section. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:29, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
