The subjects notability is unimportant. The subjects notability exists over a single crime that he didn't commit nor was a part of. The article is essentially a short rewrite of the two obituaries that it is sourced to. I fail to see any importance in this stub. Keegan (talk) 06:59, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment: I'd also note that this article is covered under BLP, the recently dead. Keegan (talk) 09:26, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete I PRODed this a few weeks ago. I think it might be a case of mistaken identity, but either way there is a complete dearth of information about this person out there. I'd expect at least a few books by now, but what there is is minimal at best. I don't think this meets WP:GNG even remotely, and I can't see where we would redirect it either. § FreeRangeFrog croak 16:40, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete fails WP:CRIMINAL. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 18:30, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete, not notable. John Reaves 20:17, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment -- A release on appeal after 10 years might indicate that this was a notorious case of a miscarriage of justice. I do not recall the case, but that might make it notable.  Peterkingiron (talk) 23:08, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete Not enough reliable sources to establish notability or justify inclusion per WP:GNG. —Tom Morris (talk) 10:30, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
