Chock full of press releases and general fluff, no real in-depth coverage. A search also shows much of the same: lots of PR. Fails GNG. The only non-interview and non-press release I can find is this and several like it. The move to mainspace reason "he will be the greatest speaker at SXSW" doesn't really hold weight here.

 * Comment Except that coverage seems to have petered out before he actually went to trial (but a couple of sources do cover the guilty plea of an alleged associate and mention that he was out on bail), he seems to be almost as notable for the alleged shenanigans in Long Island as for anything else.

 * Speedy Delete Fails WP:GNG creator has repeatedly removed the speedy tag and is now blocked. Theroadislong (talk) 06:58, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete As above, non-notable. Eagleash (talk) 09:32, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - if the companies he headed were notable, maybe. But they aren't. I could swear we had notability guidelines for company founders and executives, but I can't find any. ~Anachronist (talk) 20:56, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Scant news about some minor criminal offence cannot establish notability. No reliable sources to pass WP:BIO. –Ammarpad (talk) 19:16, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
