[edit] Jerry Dewayne Williams
I've been reading over and researching this particular stub for a couple hours now and I can't find anything about it that suggests notability. This individual has an article due to a crime committed which is often cited as a failure in California's three strikes law. This fact makes it a clear failure to fulfill WP:BIO1E. The only pertinent information about this individual and this case is already found on Three strikes law, I see no reason that there needs to be a seperate article.

- As the person who created the article, I agree. At the time I started it, I was fascinated with Wikipedia's ability to include, well, anything. However, reading the notability guideline certainly suggests this article be deleted. Too bad Mr. Williams never made headlines with any other zany antics. :)--Metron4 (talk) 23:13, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
