• Comment Wikipedia:"Murder of" articles is an essay, not a policy or a guideline. We don’t require that murder victims be notable before being murdered. Mccapra (talk) 08:27, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: Discovery of the body in 1961 and the subsequent inquest provided grist for the mill in terms of books, articles, media coverage, thus satisfying the requirements given like so: The historic significance is indicated by persistent coverage of the event in reliable secondary sources that devote significant attention to the individual's role. So Keep. --Whiteguru (talk) 12:21, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, meets WP:CRIME and WP:GNG, has a large amount of coverage over an extended time, brought out in the article. Coolabahapple (talk) 04:59, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, significant coverage of a major news event in its time. “Murder of” guideline is misunderstood—and not even a guideline, it’s an opinion essay. Montanabw^(talk) 17:07, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, per all of the above. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 19:11, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
