:It's not POV. It's mentioned in all of the reliable sources used. It's public knowledge that the three killers are homosexual. Got it? Now, how about you cut the bullshit.

Hang On
This article contains only information from publically published sources, and is not disparaging beyond what has already been made public. Bachcell (talk) 23:52, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
- This article violates WP:BLP1E. The inclusion of the names of people who have not been charged with a crime is a severe BLP violation. There is no way this can be cleaned up unless you can write an article about what made him famous before he was killed, and remove the names of the other people. Little Red Riding Hoodtalk 23:56, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
- For accuracy's sake, each of the three subjects have been 1) arrested and charged with obstruction of justice, and 2) named as respondents in a civil lawsuit brought by Wone's widow. See here for a more up-to-date account of their legal status than the WP articles. Jclemens (talk) 09:50, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
- Correction, each of them have also been charged with conspiracy, and the prosecution has hinted they may be charged with evidence tampering as well. See the ever-expanding article for details. Jclemens (talk) 19:36, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

- Hang on is in the wrong place, I'm removing it from the talkpage (as I've removed the CSD tag). If you find it on the article, do not remove it - particularly if you are the person who tagged the article for CSD. The correct venue for deleting this article, if such is necessary, is AfD.
