Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jeffrey Landrigan
per . As a biography, this falls under , but that could be fixed by renaming to "Execution of Jeffrey Landrigan". All that distinguishes this from thousands of other murder-and-execution stories is that two legal issues went to the Supreme Court, one about adequate trial representation and one about the source of the lethal chemical used, supplied from the EU which has a list (not including this chemical) of goods which may not be exported because they might be used for capital punishment. The question is whether those are (a) significant legal or constitutional issues which warrant an encyclopedia article, or (b) merely desperate, ingenious but unsuccessful legal quibbles devised by lawyers anxious to find yet another appeal reason to string things out. I incline to (b), hence my ''delete'' !vote. To say that this is an issue of "foreign powers attempting to influence US justice with trade practices" is, to put it mildly, nonsense
