Christopher Sepulvado

Until Sepulvado's execution actually goes ahead I would say the case is NOT notable enough yet for Wikipedia. Perhaps it can remain in draft for the time being, but it is extremely unclear yet whether his execution will go ahead. Inexpiable (talk) 20:36, 13 February 2025 (UTC)

@Inexpiable. I get where you are coming from. I was thinking about asking for your help with finding old newspaper articles from the 1990s about the trial and murder of Sepulvado's stepson, from newspapers.com because I cannot access or subscribe it for some reasons. Perhaps it can be a great help to me if you can chip in for a bit. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 21:53, 13 February 2025 (UTC)

Though, I not sure if you have a subscription. Haunted Spy got say I can ask him but now his subscription is expired so I could not seek his assistance. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 21:54, 13 February 2025 (UTC)

Unfortunately mine expired last month and I have decided not to renew it as I am less active on here than I once was and at creating articles but in the future if I decide to get it I will help out if I can. Inexpiable (talk) 22:05, 13 February 2025 (UTC)

@Inexpiable,thanks for the reply. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 22:08, 13 February 2025 (UTC)

Probably can be published actually as he was nearly executed in 2013. I would go ahead and publish the article, there's enough coverage for notability here. Inexpiable (talk) 17:58, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

@Inexpiable. I am now adding in the details. About the other Louisiana guy, Jessie Hoffman Jr., I am thinking about writing his case (provided if I can find more sources) but might prioritise either the ones in draftspace or branch out on the female death row inmates first (I am thinking about advancing a couple of them that interest me).

@NelsonLee20042020: Unless he becomes Louisiana's first execution since 2010, I don't think his case is particularly notable and warrants an article. Inexpiable (talk) 08:44, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

You are referring to Hoffman right? @Inexpiable NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 08:50, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

Yes. Inexpiable (talk) 08:55, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

@Inexpiable. I think we now have a valid reason here about Hoffman, after what happened to Sepulvado (he just died in prison of natural causes). [1] NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 15:35, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

@Inexpiable. Of course I will find the sources to see if we can establish the level of notability first. Would like to hear your opinion too. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 15:48, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

Go for it then. Label the article as his name rather than "Murder of (victim's name)" because predominantly his notability comes from him being Louisiana's first execution in over 15 years. Although I am still doubtful the execution will go ahead as I'm sure some judge will step in, however, it seems he is likely to be first in line if and when executions do eventually return in Louisiana. Inexpiable (talk) 17:40, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

I understand your concern about the possibility of resuming executions. I will take the time to read through the case. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 21:00, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

RE: Help request

According to my talk page (at the time of this writing), you asked me if I could help you find from the locked archived news sources about Hoffman's case updates in the 1990s, like from newspapers.com. At the time of this writing, I do not have a subscription to said website, so I cannot (at the time of this writing) help you with that. Sorry. Heart of Destruction (talk) 20:30, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

@Heart of Destruction. Its okay. I understand NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 22:37, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

List of people scheduled...

Thanks for that edit. Insightful what Ivey said: "There is also other circumstantial evidence, but it is riddled with conflicting evidence from seemingly everyone involved. In short, I am not convinced that Mr. Myers is innocent, but I am not so convinced of his guilt as to approve of his execution." I guess that's something... Drmies (talk) 22:36, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

@Drmies. You are welcome. I myself am a strong supporter of capital punishment, but of course, his case does have some area of concern here. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 22:41, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

I have met with people who've spent decades in jail, unjustly, and there's plenty of people who were on death row unjustly, of course. COI: I have a friend who's a lawyer working for an organization that advocates for some of them, and got a few of them off. I can never support it. Thanks for updating that list, thought--that's actually real work, and you probably don't get a lot of credit for it. ;) Drmies (talk) 22:44, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

it's okay. @Drmies. I respect your views and hope you respect mine too. I am thankful for your acknowledgement of my work too. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 22:51, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

That's what we're here for, to do the work. Take care, Drmies (talk) 22:53, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
