I removed the speedy because A7 does not apply; notability is asserted. Non-notable deputy sheriff who was murdered in 1996. Google News Archive returns many results; however, this should be deleted because the subject is notable for only one event, his death. Wikipedia is not a memorial. I cannot find any coverage of him before he died. Cunard (talk) 06:05, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - I agree, sorry to say. This has become an all to common an occurrence. Though considered notable 50years ago, has become just a news item for a day or two, and only a local news item at that.  And Wikipedia is not a news service.  Typically I would have said merge into the Ventura County Sheriff's Department, however, these officers are alreay listed there and memorlised.  ShoesssS Talk 06:37, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:BLP1E. Neither his job, nor anything he has done (apart from dying) bestow notability. Ohconfucius (talk) 09:59, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete I don't see how asserted notability applies to not speedy deleting this, see WP:N/CA. Even if there is a news article about the crime, that does not make someone automatically notable. Clubmarx (talk) 14:45, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
