All murderers aren't notable, in fact, most probably aren't and I can see no evidence that this case garnered anything more than brief local attention. Fails GNG, WP:NCRIME etc... Praxidicae (talk) 17:54, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep First of all, it looks like his crime was covered in non-local sources (e.g. Fox News). This would still not be enough to establish notability if it received only routine coverage at the time of the crime/conviction, but I see evidence of WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE and WP:LASTING effects. For example, it's cited as a precedent in this 2013 news story. It's used as an example in this 2009 HuffPost article. It's given as a case study in this scholarly book. Also a Google Scholar search turns up several mentions in papers, though admittedly not highly-cited ones. The article needs a lot of work though. Colin M (talk) 20:58, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
