What makes this article notable? The lead sentence should explain why a person being found dead is notable. It should also explain why the circumstances of the death indicate a culpable homicide has occurred, rather than an accident or natural event. Using the word "dead" says nothing about why the deceased's death is notable. There is evidence suppression in place that suggests that what the accused has previously written about is not relevant to the trial. Without that coincidence, this article does not explain its claim to notability. Also, when writing about crimes it is normal practice to assume a person charged with an offence is innocent until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt. An article about the murder of a victim should not contain the word Murder unless and until a person has been convicted of that offence. Otherwise this is speculating about the verdict of any trial, as the crime of murder is only suspected, not proven, until then. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 09:21, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Events are presumed notable when they fulfil general notability guideline, which I believe this has. It has significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject as stated in the guideline, and in this case, over a significant span of time and even in international sources which sets it apart from routine local crime coverage. There are many more national and international media sources that have not been used in the article. Just as two examples of each, Associated Press/USA Today and Washington Post; Sky News and Irish Independent. ☆ Bri (talk) 19:47, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The full name of the defendant was being used here continually except in one instance in which she was adressed by only her surname preceded by 'Ms.' I changed the latter and another instance just now, but my explantation came out garbled, so I'm repeating it here: Titles like 'Mr.' and 'Ms.' are no longer used in most modern reputable sourses, and it's tedious and clumsy to keep referring to Crampton-Brophy by her entire name. Most of the news sources call her Crampton-Brophy most of the time (Crampton-Brophy to distinguish her from her late husband, Brophy, but also to distinguish the person from her pen name, Nancy Brophy.) Otherwise, nice recent article expansion. 01:38, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
