Ray Cuddy[edit]

"Mastermind" (really!) of a kidnap. Not of anybody you've probably heard of, just some rich guy's daughter. He got the money, but six days later was arrested thanks to making a down-payment on a Ferrari in cash. NB this was in 1990s USA, not 1980s Saudi Arabia, so he does sound remarkably stupid to me -- but does either kidnapping or (Archimedes Plutonium aside) exceptional stupidity win you an encyclopedia entry?

Note that the poppet he kidnapped also gets her Wikipedia entry on the strength of having been kidnapped. -- Hoary 10:54, 2005 Jan 15 (UTC)

Not verifiable - delete. Keep if a solid reference can be found - David Gerard 15:06, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Delete. He got the article apparently as a bud off Ocean's Eleven (which made an oblique passing reference to him). Since that's the only sense in which he's notable, let the information remain there. dbenbenn | talk 18:14, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Delete, not notable. Megan1967 01:50, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Utterly verifiable, but not particularly interesting, except perhaps as a small mention in the Steve Wynn article. Delete. --jpgordon ∇∆∇∆ 04:12, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Delete. Ocean's Eleven already makes reference to this, no need for her own article. JoaoRicardo 05:19, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
