Mark O'Mara

I think that this is a fairly reasonable application of WP:BLP1E. He is a defense lawyer who is participating in one high profile case, and the only non self published sources regard his participation in this case. He does play some role in the case, but it seems to me that this page should be deleted, and potentially the content merged into Shooting of Trayvon Martin.

 * Keep - his role in the case is substantial and as such notable enough for his own article which I'm sure will fill out as editors contribute further. --WGFinley (talk) 21:59, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect - to Shooting of Trayvon Martin. There is no indication that he has done anything outside this case that would indicate he is a notable lawyer independent of this case.  -- Whpq (talk) 14:17, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep The most famous contemporary lawyer of modern all times. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.112.110.65 (talk)
 * Reply - Can you provide some sources to substantiate that? -- Whpq (talk) 20:29, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep - with so much current coverage, his notability is already established, and though Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, you can bet he will only get more notable as the implications of the decision materialize (regardless of the decision or, for that matter, indecision).

 * Keep -- I would remind those wishing to delete or redirect that Jose Baez has his own Wiki entry. I think that the lack of information currently on O'Mara's page is somewhat of a concern, but remember, Baez's article didn't start out with too much detail either; I'm sure someone with time could dig up some more background on O'Mara if they wanted.
