Tragic but nothing not notable murder/crime. ...William 16:18, 13 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree The case is prominent in the UK and involves someone who is a serial attacker and parents who are prominent in local politics and covered-up for the murderer. Also her friends who campaigned for many years to keep the case in the public eye. Please also get the poor girls name correct - it is "Claire".

  • Keep - seem to cover GNG and CRIME.--BabbaQ (talk) 11:54, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - case has had extensive media coverage over a long period of time. The potential for further charges relating to the alleged cover-up also mean this already notable case may become even more so. The fact that the murder victim was a child tends to also increase notability.Shakehandsman (talk) 02:05, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - notable murder with long-term coverage in the mainstream media. Jim Michael (talk) 21:27, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Shakehandsman and Jim Michael. We have tended to keep articles involving well-known deaths that have ongoing significant coverage in reliable sources. Bearian (talk) 20:43, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, sources indicate notability. Everyking (talk) 03:59, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
