I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{helpme}} before the question. Again, welcome!

I see you are off to a good start. I am sorry I had to delete the material from your article (and, if you knew him, I am sorry for your loss), but any statements on criminal activity must have a reliable source. And if the case is still going on, we cannot report allegations as fact, if they are yet to be proven in court. Please see WP:BLP for more information.

Happy editing!
