I don't think this passes WP:EVENT. It's a sad murder, but I fail to see how it is separated from any other murder. SL93 (talk) 05:43, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The fact that this was a dual-racial crime, as opposed to a single-race crime, is possibly what has gotten it the extra visibility to some, by dint of its being featured on far-right sites. StonyBrook (talk) 16:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - There are approximately 15,000 murders a year in the United States and this one, though sad, is no more notable than most of the others. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:34, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
