This has been nominated before, and I fail to see where this isn't WP:NOTINHERITED. Most of the coverage says "Jerry Remy's son" or some variation thereof, especially the non-local coverage like the Daily Mail (which I thought we considered a tabloid anyway. This is not a WP:CRIME-type article where the crime itself is noteworthy.  The majority of the sources are local, with 24 references from just one Boston Globe article.  None of this would be notable if this was some random person, especially in the United States.  As it stands, it's only maintained such because of the connection to Jerry Remy.

 * Keep - Yes this article has been through two previous AfD with clear Keep results. Little more than 2 years ago. This one clearly passes WP:GNG and WP:CRIMINAL. There are also good sources to verify. BabbaQ (talk) 05:16, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep Meets WP:GNG as he has received significant coverage in reliable sources, including the Boston Globe, Seattle Times, Bangor Daily News , RDS , ABC News , CBS News , USA Today , and LA Times for three separate incidents over the course of eight years.

 * Keep: The nom is misreading NOTINHERITED in putting a spin on it the rule doesn't warrant. I quite agree that if Jared Remy wasn't Jerry Remy's son, the media wouldn't give a damn about him, just the same way that no one would give a damn about the Kardashian sisters if Kim Kardashian never had been in the public eye.  The GNG, however, makes no value judgments as to the reason someone is in the public eye, and we have no business doing so either at AfD.  Jared plainly meets the GNG in his own right, however many of those sources namedrop his father.   Ravenswing   16:20, 13 September 2016 (UTC)
