The subject of this article killed 6 people in a single spree, and is not notable for any other reason. Per WP:BLP1E we should not retain these kinds of articles.

For those who might argue to move to Killing of..., WP:N/CA states that criminal acts may be notable if they have been the subject of "intense media coverage", which is not the case here. Kevin (talk) 09:31, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Thanks, I'm aware of the location of the buttons, and of the results. I didn't think it showed intensive coverage of the crimes themselves. Kevin (talk) 21:59, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
