fails WP:VICTIM and WP:EVENT. The coverage spikes around the event and sentencing. No long term notability years after the crime. LibStar (talk) 15:03, 1 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The article does not demonstrate the impact of the event beyond being horrible news. - Altenmann >t 17:16, 1 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep - definitely in need of a clean-up and expansion and proper format for sourcing. But sources checks out. Altenmanns reasoning for deletion also points out that the article is not formatted correctly at this time but that is not in itself a reason for deletion of a notable subject.--BabbaQ (talk) 12:17, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

sources indeed verify this happened but how does it mere WP:EVENT. Is there long term coverage? I know you like voting keep at murder AfDs but what makes this murder long term notable not a short term spike? LibStar (talk) 12:38, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. There is no evidence that the incident had a lasting effect. --DAJF (talk) 13:03, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
