Essentially BLP1E. Only known for a single event and has not been known for anything since then not related to that single event. Burpelson AFB (talk) 00:30, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep: A freed death row inmate is highly notable, especially when the article has plenty of reliable sources. This article (that I have never edited) should be a part of this encyclopedia. Toddst1 (talk) 01:11, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep Alan Gell was a BLP1E upon his conviction and subsequent capitol sentence. Being exonerated while on death row definitely qualifies as a second event. My 76 Strat  01:38, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - BLP1E is inappropriate: I agree with My76Strat that the conviction was (arguably) just one event, but the legal and constitutional ramifications of his exoneration are far greater than that. "One event" does not adequately describe its attributable significance. SteveStrummer (talk) 02:11, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
