See WP:BLP1E. Wikipedia is not a news source or a true crime publisher. This person has no historical significance that would merit an article, nor any truly biographical sources (where the one event he gained notoriety for aren't the subject). He committed a murder that was briefly the subject of news articles, and that is all. Delete. Dominic·t 09:41, 23 August 2009 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice.
