Although I am reluctant to put this on AfD, as I suggested merging this to Tonya Harding, another user suggesting either PRODding or AfDing this if this article fails to meet WP:BIO, which I feel it fail to do anyway as he states in the talk section that the person concerned is deceased therefore, any BLP concern does not apply Jay Pegg (talk) 10:24, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep due to the subject's involvement in a well-publicized news story. If Wikipedia had existed in 1994, this article wouldn't even have been called into question. Unless someone actually endorses deletion here (such as the "another user" mentioned in the nomination), I would recommend a speedy keep due to lack of expressed support for deletion. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 17:26, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Merge to Tonya_Harding. This guy is notable for WP:BIO1E. VG &#x260E; 18:23, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge to Tonya Harding where his criminal act has its notability.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 18:51, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge. This could be the poster child for WP:BIO1E. Bongomatic (talk) 06:55, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep and also do a redirect for Brian Sean Griffith The attack, the trial, and his death are separate events covered by reliable sources and the death articles do verify what he did after leaving prison (like changing his name, starting a computer business, and assaulting someone else). Yeah, he's famous for one event but so is Rodney King. I would consider merging it to a Kerrigan attack page if one existed but a merge to Harding with all of his bio is inappropriate.

 * Comment, whoops, I see the redirect has already been done. Morbidthoughts (talk) 02:30, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
