The most applicable rule would be WP:NPOV#Undue weight. It is not acceptable for a minor or tangential incident, with respect to notability, to become inflated in importance by sheer volume of coverage in an article. This provision is particularly applicable when it is fairly obvious that an editor has intentionally expanded such a section to advance a point of view. From Jango's comments above, I'd say that's a fair assessment of the situation here. Clearly there should be some discussion, as the media picked it up. But, the bottom line fact is that he was never prosecuted. More of the detail still should be cleaned up as unencyclopedic and tangential under Undue Weight. Derex
