Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul Petersen (politician)
County assessor is not a role that would have gotten him a Wikipedia article on  grounds, so we have to stick with  — and per BLPCRIME, if a person wasn't already notable enough for an article for other reasons, then he has to be convicted of, not merely charged with, a crime before he might have a valid claim to being notable as a politician. Even if he is convicted in the end, an event article about the adoption fraud ring might be more appropriate than a standalone BLP of him as a person — but the time to evaluate that one way or the other will be after there's been a conviction, not today
