The entire draft should be written using your own words and structure. Note to reviewers: do not leave copyright violations sitting in the page history. Please follow the instructions here.

You are welcome to write an article on the subject, but please do not use copyrighted work.

An additional note to this template, despite you having the same username as this Reddit user we have no way of knowing whether or not you're the same person unless you were to edit the Reddit post and release it under a Wikipedia friendly license. Additionally I would've rejected the draft even if it wasn't copied and pasted, as there's almost no sourcing and it seems to be a routine killing. See WP:NCRIME; most have to have sustained media coverage/interest. Chess (talk) (please use {{ping|Chess}} on reply) 05:17, 4 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
