WikiProject Georgia (U.S. state) To-do:

Here are some tasks awaiting attention:

motive?

Nothing in here discusses her motive. That would be an important addition to this article. Kingturtle = (talk) 13:02, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I read it and said, "But Why?" Was he abusive? Was there some other dynamic going on? Was she deemed competent to stand trial? 205.172.21.143 (talk) 15:05, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There needs to be more about the victim. Murder is a non-achievement, and execution is banal in the US criminal justice system.

Besides, Wikipedia attempts by policy to avoid giving a age to a criminal. It is the victim, and not the murderer or rapist, who is to be recognized in Wikipedia titles. Search for Jodi Arias, and you get "Murder of Travis Alexander". This policy is intended to discourage people from committing crimes so that they get some perverse recognition in Wikipedia. Murderers are not to be recognized unless unavoidable due to notability for other reasons (including legal decisions related to the case that change legal practice)) or to unavoidable attachment to mass murder or serial murder. Wikipedia seeks to avoid tempting anyone into delinquent behavior.
