As per WP:NOTNEWS. While news resurfaced due to parents wanting the case re-opened, no long-lasting effects. Simply another tragic occurrence. Onel5969 TT me 15:34, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
- Keep I did consider this issue when creating the article and decided it was notable per WP:EVENTCRITERIA points 1,2 and 4. The sad chain of events begins with the disappearance of Jessie Earl in 1980, then the case was re-opened in 1989 and 2000, now in 2020 there are further developments, all of which demonstrates enduring historical significance. At every stage the event received national mainstream media coverage. Mujinga (talk) 16:02, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
