Per WP:PERPETRATOR, no indication of notability outside of the crime he committed, for which coverage was not long-lasting. The crime itself is now covered in Vehicle matching scam, created by same WP:SPA. Prod contested by anonymous editor. NeemNarduni2 (talk) 15:41, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

So I ran a quick search: cocaine dealing [1], assault and battery [2], othe stuff on a google news search, so I went to a Proquest search and he popped up being denied bail after slugging someone because he was already on bail for something else [3] , there was a surprising amount of national and wire service coverage for the car seller scam, including some form later dates in which he was interviewed about how this sort of scam works in article prompted by some new scam being uncovered. I kept this as a sort of running iVote as I scanned the news hits, not simple becasue there is a police officer in Northern Isreland named Kiernan Cassidy who arreste people for this sort of crime. Overall, our boy Kiernan appear to be an all-round bad apple who must have a fair amount of charm because the press covers his career with a certain degree of relish. Not certain that being a career criminal with arrests, convictions & news hits spreading over a decade or so is enough to get you a spot on Wikipedia.E.M.Gregory (talk) 17:32, 19 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as questionable for the applicable notability, none of this is better convincing. SwisterTwister talk 06:11, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
