I'm not one to use the category often nor am I familiar with that character but it does take some vile stuff. Generally just killing or attempting to kill a hero or their loved ones isn't enough unless they establish a clear pattern and it being brutal often in graphic detail. They also have to go beyond generic / standard villainy both overall and of their story to stand out enough while also doing the most harm they can.

For example Theo Galavan from Gotham while and irredeemable prick doesn't do as much considering his resources as Jerome thus doesn't count while Jerome does. They can't be given sympathy from the narrative or redeeming traits though based off what you described that's definitely not the case. With the character in question not sure why he doesn't count unless his crimes are overshadowed by most villains or most do similar. I hope this at least helped a little and if not I do apologize.
