Non notable biography. Wikipedia is not a memorial. Kumioko (talk) 02:26, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Userfy. So far the coverage for this is very light, too light to really qualify for an article at this point in time. There has been some comparison to the Treyvon Martin case and the "stand your ground" law, so there is the potential for more. However, we can't guarantee that the upcoming September trial will garner that coverage. Since there is the potential for more coverage, I recommend userfying the information if anyone is interested. If more comes in the future then we'll have an article ready to go. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 03:55, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Userfy - good call by Tokyogirl79. At first glance my reaction was "Delete", but the lengthy Rolling Stone news article shows the murder has received significant national attention and comparisons made to the Trayvon Martin case. I would be teetering on "Weak keep" if someone was to flesh out the article on this basis. Sionk (talk) 17:58, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
