I initially PRODded with the summary "G10 borderline, fails WP:BLPCRIME", then it was contested by article creator with no summary, but this person does not appear to be notable. Just murdering your mother, ~~who has an article here,~~ (striked because of Metropolitan90's comment) does not make you notable. There is no "Early life" section or anything other than that info so that makes the notability even more questionable. TL22 (talk) 01:52, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The subject murdered his grandmother Eleanor Clark, but she was not the same person that the Eleanor Clark article is about. The Eleanor Clark article is about a woman who died of natural causes 13 years before James Clark murdered a different person of the same name. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:31, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Fails WP:CRIMINAL. Nothing particularly notable about this murder. Clarityfiend (talk) 10:54, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete likely as this seems no different than any other event and this would be best mentioned elsewhere at best; my searches found nothing particularly good. SwisterTwister talk 07:53, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Fails WP:GNG. Searches turned up no in-depth coverage outside of the murder. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:51, 21 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
