MI MI - JOHN NORMAN COLLINS Co-Ed Murders 1967-69, Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti

[Brotherfudz]

Roxie Ann Phillips, age 17, was visiting California from Oregon when she was murdered on 30 June 1969.

Roxie was very likely a victim of John Norman Collins and/or his partner Andrew Manuel while they were on a road trip in June and July 1969 to California. Collins was indited for her murder and his extradition from Michigan to California for trial was requested. However, Governor Milliken of Michigan wanted all charges, convictions, and appeals in Michigan to be completed first. When Michigan appeals were exhausted, the extradition request was approved, but California then declined to pursue the case, and Collins remained in Michigan where he has been incarcerated for the past 54 years.

At the time of Roxie's death, California investigators believed that her murder was connected to a similar June 1969 murder - that of Susan Mary Hennessy, age 17.

Susan Mary Hennessy, age 17

The nude body of Virginia Lynn Smith, 13, was found June 23, 1969 in a creek bed in a deserted canyon near her home in Claremont, California. She had been raped and strangled. Her death was believed by investigators to be connected to the murders of Roxie, Susan, and another then unidentified woman.

Roxie's murder, along with three others which occurred in California during the June/July 1969 time frame, suggests that Collins also killed outside of Michigan - and that Andrew Manuel (aka Richard Diaz) may have been a willing partner in his murders.

Was curious what you thought the role of Andrew Manuel was in the killings? Wonder if he was ever connected to anything after these killings?

Was curious what you thought the role of Andrew Manuel was in the killings? Wonder if he was ever connected to anything after these killings?

Excellent Question. Andrew Manuel (alias Richard Diaz) and Collins worked for a short period of time together at an Auto parts manufacturing company. They soon became partners in burglarizing homes and businesses.


Andrew Manuel in custody August 1969

Although Manuel was married, he moved in to the same boarding house in Ypsilanti, Michigan with Collins and Arne Davis.

In June 1969 Collins and Manuel stole a camping trailer by providing false identification and a forged check to a rental company. They drove cross country from Michigan to California, living out of the trailer before abandoning it in the backyard of Manuel's grandfather's home and returning to Michigan near the end of July 1969.

Collins abducted and murdered Karen Sue Beineman on 23 July 1969 in Ypsilanti and was arrested a few days later. Andrew Manuel took a number of items from Collins including some stolen rifles which he sold for quick cash. He immediately fled Michigan by bus, taking with him a pistol owned by Collins (which he claimed to have disposed of along the way). That pistol might have connected Collins forensically to some of the other murders.

Manuel returned to California where he may have cleaned out the stolen trailer of any incriminating evidence. When investigators later found it, it had been wiped clean of any fingerprints.

Manuel next headed south and east to the home of his sister in Phoenix, Arizona where he was captured in early August 1969 by the FBI and returned to Michigan.

Manuel was not charged with any of the Michigan Co-ed murders, but was considered an important witness. He was offered a light sentence to plead guilty to two felony theft charges (related to the stolen camping trailer) and to testify against Collins in his murder trial. He agreed, but gave prosecutors nothing in the way of evidence. He was not called to testify at the trial.

Part of Collins' alibi story regarding where he was and what he did on the day of Karen Sue Beineman's murder was that he spent the afternoon with Arne Davis and Andrew Manuel at their boarding house watching television. It would have been interesting to hear what Manuel had to say about that.

Given a light fine and parole, he was out by Christmas 1969 and soon blew town again. He was picked up and served about 3 months in the county jail for violating his parole. He later served two separate terms in Federal Prisons for committing unspecified federal crimes. He has since died.

Although John Norman Collins was indited for the murder of Roxie Ann Phillips in California, and the Governor requested his extradition from Michigan, there was no similar charge or request regarding Andrew Manuel.

Exactly how much Manuel knew about or participated in the murders in Michigan, California, or other states is a mystery. At the very least, he should have been considered an accomplice before and after the fact in regard to some of the murders - if not an active participant.

Susan Davis (left) and Elizabeth Perry (both age 19). Murdered near Sommers Point, New Jersey on Friday 30 May 1969

These young women had been staying in Ocean City on vacation since the Tuesday before. At 4:30 a.m. they were headed back to Pennsylvania in hopes of beating the traffic, but stopped to have breakfast at Somers Point Diner.

After leaving the diner about an hour later, the sequence of events leading to their deaths is uncertain. A state trooper found their powder-blue 1966 Chevrolet convertible abandoned by the Parkway around noon that day, and had it removed.

Three days later at about 1:30 p.m., the bodies of the two young women were found hidden under piles of leaves in dense woods, 200 yards from the Garden State Parkway and about 150 yards from the abandoned car. Davis was nude, and her clothes were found in a pile near her, including her jacket and purse. Perry was clothed except for her underwear, which was missing. Contemporaneous news reports vary on whether the victims were sexually assaulted...

Both had been stabbed to death with a small knife, possibly a penknife or pocketknife, though the murder weapon was never found. Perry died of a penetrating stab wound to her right lung; she also had three stab wounds in her abdomen and side of her neck. Davis died of a wound in her neck that cut her larynx; she also had four wounds on the left side of her abdomen and a non-fatal wound on right side of her neck...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This unsolved double murder case was considered by Michigan State Police investigators as possibly being connected to the Michigan "Co-ed" Murders, and two officers traveled to New Jersey to study it. They could not find any forensic evidence to connect it at the time.

The murders of Susan and Elizabeth occurred between the murders of Dawn Basom (15 April 1969) and Alice Kalom (7 June 1969).

Of note is that following Dawn's murder, the actual murder site was located in the basement of an abandoned house, and items found led police to conclude that other murders had occurred there as well.

News of that discovery hit the media as did a well written letter to the public by the sister of Mary Fleszar pleading for the public's assistance in the unsolved murders. Many tips were generated and police were busy following up on them, asking questions throughout the Ypsilanti area.

Up to this point, the "Co-ed"murders had been accelerating with the time between killings getting shorter - then there was a 6 week break. Could Collins and his partner Manuel have left the state for a while until the heat was off? Perhaps a trip east to New Jersey?

They certainly did that after the murder of Alice Kalom when they left Michigan on a cross country drive to California. And again after the murder of Roxie Ann Phillips - leaving California to return to Michigan.

Andrew Manuel did this AGAIN after the murder of Karen Sue Beineman and the arrest of Collins - And AGAIN after his plea deal.

Do I sense a similarity here?

Michigan Suspect Linked Directly to Salinas Case

By George Murphy

Salinas
John Norman Collins, charged with the most recent of seven coed slayings in Michigan, was linked directly as a suspect yesterday in the murder of a Salinas teenager.
The handsome 22-year-old student who police said had "a magnetic effect on young girls," met and made a date with a close friend of Roxie Ann Phillips, 17, the day before Miss Phillips disappeared June 30, investigators learned.
Miss Phillips' nude body was found with a red belt around her neck near Carmel July 13. She had been strangled to death and, as with several of the Michigan victims, one earring was missing.
Monterey County Sheriff's Detective Darol Smith said "Roxie Ann was well aware of the existence of Collins."
Captain Smith said Collins "picked up" Nancy Albrecht, 17, a visitor from Fort Worth and a friend of Miss Phillips, on Pajaro street in Salinas June 29.
He drove her to the home of her sister and brother-in-law, where she was staying, and spent 30 minutes talking with Miss Albrecht and her sister, Frances Gautier, Smith disclosed.

He said Collins told them he was attending Eastern Michigan University and had come to Salinas in a house trailer he was "living with friends."
Captain Smith said Miss Albrect later told Miss Phillips about her meeting with Collins and described him and his car to her.
The next day, Miss Phillips disappeared. On that day, too, Collins was to have a date with Miss Albrect, but he never showed up and she never saw him again.
The house trailer was found Friday behind the Salinas home of the grandfather of Andrew Manuel, 24, known to have come with Collins to California from Ypsilanti, Mich.
Police and FBI agents are searching for Manuel, a 6-foot-1, 235-pound Filipino-American with a tattoo, possibly of an eagle, on his left forearm.
Michigan State Police Sergeant Ken Christensen sent to Salinas for the investigation, said he "felt certain" Manuel "could be helpful."

Christensen said he and his associate, Detective Tom Nasser, would probably go to Los Angeles later this week to investigate the June 23 murder of Virginia Lynn Smith, 13.
She was killed in much the same manner as the seven Michigan coeds and Miss Phillips.
Collins and Manuel left Ypsilanti, with their trailer, on June 21, and returned sometime in July, police said.
Miss Phillips, Miss Smith and a still-unidentified girl whose murdered body was found near Salinas, were killed between June 17 and July 16.
Christensen described Collins as "a very handsome, clean-cut attractive young man who seems to have a magnetic effect on young girls."
He was arrested in Michigan Friday and charged with the murder of Karen Sue Beineman, an Eastern Michigan University student.
The Ann Arbor News reported yesterday that a witness told police Collins was the driver of a care that picked up Joan Schell shortly before she became the second victim in the string of seven Michigan coed killings.
The victims were all found nude, sexually mutilated and had one of their earrings missing.
The FBI entered the case when a Federal fugitive warrant was issued for Manuel for failing to return the rented trailer.
Christensen and Detective Nasser examined the trailer, but would not disclose their findings — if any.
Smith said the police believed Manuel was "without money and without any means of transportation."
In San Jose, Chief of Detective Barton Collins said "I'd like to talk with Andrew Manuel" about the murder of Gay Furlong, 14, and Kathy Snoozy, 15.
The bodies of the girls were found savagely stabbed to death Sunday night on a San Jose hillside.
"I'd like to talk to anyone who could tell me anything about how these two kids were killed," the San Jose chief said.
He would not speculate, however, on any link between the deaths and those of Miss Phillips and the unidentified Salinas girl.
"We don't have anything that positively connects them," Collins said.

Excerpted from my previous post from the 6 August 1969 edition of the San Francisco Chronicle:

Police and FBI agents are searching for Manuel, a 6-foot-1, 235-pound Filipino-American with a tattoo, possibly of an eagle, on his left forearm. Michigan State Police Sergeant Ken Christensen sent to Salinas for the investigation, said he "felt certain" Manuel "could be helpful."

Christensen said he and his associate, Detective Tom Nasser, would probably go to Los Angeles later this week to investigate the June 23 murder of Virginia Lynn Smith, 13. She was killed in much the same manner as the seven Michigan coeds and Miss Phillips.

Collins and Manuel left Ypsilanti, with their trailer, on June 21, and returned sometime in July, police said.
Miss Phillips, Miss Smith and a still-unidentified girl whose murdered body was found near Salinas, were killed between June 17 and July 16....

The FBI entered the case when a Federal fugitive warrant was issued for Manuel for failing to return the rented trailer.
Christensen and Detective Nasser examined the trailer, but would not disclose their findings — if any.

(Monterey County Sheriff's Detective Darol) Smith said the police believed Manuel was "without money and without any means of transportation."

Commentary on the above article:

It is interesting to note that at the time this article was written, Andrew Manuel was still at large. He had fled Michigan on or about 26 July 1969 just prior to Collins' arrest. It known that he first went to Salinas, California and from there to Phoenix, Arizona where he was caught by the FBI - coincidentally on 6 August 1969, the same day that the above article appeared.

Although he was still at large, both California and Michigan investigators seemed to strongly believe that he had returned to California. This would have had to have been so for him to be a person of interest in the Furlong and Snoozy murders which occurred on 3 August 1969.

Very likely Manuel's grandfather or other relatives had told Michigan detectives that he had indeed been home to Salinas and had left town again.

Incidentally, the murders of Gaye Furlong and Kathy Snoozy were solved in 1971 with the arrest and conviction of Karl F. Werner who confessed to killing them and another young girl.

The murder of Virginia Lynn "Ginny" Smith, age 13 occurred in late June 1969 near her home in Claremont, California - some 300 miles from Salinas. She was badly beaten and died from head and neck injuries. That case was later closed with a conviction (after three trials) of Leon William Short, followed by his sentence to life in prison. The evidence against him all came from statements that Short made to Florida Investigators who picked him up on unrelated charges. Short later recanted his confession and denied killing Ginny, stating that he told Florida investigators he had killed her only to get mental health services. Could she have actually been a victim of Collins and/or Manuel?

There were a number of references (as in this article) of an "unidentified girl" who was also murdered in Salinas about the same time that the murder of Roxie Ann Phillips occurred. I have not been able to find any more information on that murder. I do not know if she was later identified or if the case was ever solved. But this was clearly a murder which took place when Collins and Manuel were active in the area.

NOT mentioned in the article was another still unsolved murder which had occurred only days before - that of an unidentified woman whose body was found on 3 August 1969 near Lompoc, California (see post 316 this thread).
She was stabbed numerous times and her body left in an isolated rural area. Although Collins was probably not connected to her murder, note that it occurred at a time when Andrew Manuel was in California and in a location that was between Salinas and Phoenix.

Left to Right: John Norman Collins, Arnold Davis, and Andrew Manuel.

These three lived together in a boarding house in Ypsilanti, Michigan in 1969 at the time of the Co-ed murders. They participated together in burglaries and other activities. Were they also partners in murder? If not active participants in murder, Davis and Manuel certainly had key knowledge about Collins and were accomplices after the fact. Davis allowed Collins to hide a knife in his dresser and Manuel disposed of Collins' pistol when he fled Michigan, cleaned out a camping trailer, and evaded capture.

Collins has accused Davis of having committed two of the Michigan Co-ed murders and of being connected to a third. Strangely, Collins has never implicated Manuel in any crimes.

Collins has been serving a life sentence for the murder of Karen Sue Beineman for the past 54 years.

Davis testified at Collins' trial, graduated from college and then moved to the east coast.

Manuel received a very short sentence only for theft of a camping trailer and later served two separate terms in Federal Prisons for unspecified subsequent crimes. He has since died.

The end of this month will mark 54 years since John Norman Collins was arrested and charged with the murder of Karen Sue Beineman, whom he abducted and killed on 23 July 1969. He was subsequently convicted of that crime and sentenced to Life in Prison - where he remains today. It is very likely that he killed others in a connected series. Whether he had accomplices who participated in those murders remains an open question. And just how many other victims he attacked and killed in Michigan and other states also remains an unresolved mystery.

Arnold Davis: The price of silence...



Arnold "Arne" Davis, seated on the right in the above photo, was a fraternity brother and room mate of John Norman Collins, seated on the left. He was granted immunity from prosecution in turn for agreeing to testify for the prosecution at Collins' Washtenaw County (Michigan) trial for the murder of Karen Sue Beineman, and other murders under investigation at the time.

Davis stated to police that he had been with Collins on the night of 30 June 1968, riding in a red and black automobile with a third male (whom he could not, or would not identify) in Ypsilanti, Michigan. He stated that they picked up a young woman near a bus stop and that Collins offered to drive her to her destination in his own car (a late 1950's DeSoto). He said that Collins and the young woman departed the red car and got into the Desoto at their boarding house, while he (Davis) went to his room and the third male drove away.

According to Davis, later that night or early the next morning, Collins returned to their shared boarding house without the young woman, but carrying her purse. He told Davis that he had tried to "make out" with her, but that she had left his car, leaving behind her purse, which contained her identification cards.

Six days later, the naked, mutilated body of Joan Schell, age 20 was found and reported by the news media. She had been missing since the night of 30 June 1968 when she failed to arrive at her destination. Davis said that he confronted Collins about this "coincidence", and Collins told him to keep quiet about it and not mention it to anyone.

Arnold Davis, by his own admission, had direct knowledge about Joan Schell's murder and of Collins' connection to it. Yet he remained silent - even after several other young women turned up murdered in a similar fashion. Why did he keep quiet? Just how much more did he know about Collins and the murders taking place? Was he involved in a more active way?

At the very least, the silence of Arnold Davis allowed Collins to continue killing. How many of those young women would still be alive today if Davis had gone to police with his knowledge?

When questioned by police during their search of Collins' room (late July 1969), Davis showed them where he claimed Collins had placed a sheath knife (that he had seen earlier in the seat compartment of Collins' motorcycle) in a dresser drawer in Davis' room. The knife was taken into evidence and tested, but found to have been wiped clean of any blood or fingerprints. Davis stated that he had never touched the knife.

Davis also told police that shortly after the Beineman murder, he had seen Collins remove a blanket and a box containing various items like purses, jewelry, and articles of women's clothing from a storage area and take them to the trash. It is likely that these were "souvenirs" which would have connected Collins to other murders. Again, Davis didn't think it important enough to mention this until several days later when questioned by police.

Davis did testify during the trial, but was not allowed to say anything about the Joan Schell murder, or about Collins' knife. This was because Collins was not charged at the time with Joan's murder, and Karen Sue Beineman had been bludgeoned to death rather than stabbed with a knife. Davis was only allowed to answer questions pertaining directly to the Beineman murder.

Arnold Davis graduated from Eastern Michigan University and quickly moved from Michigan to a state in the eastern United States.

In 2013, DNA testing of old evidence linked John Norman Collins to the murders of both Karen Sue Beineman and Alice Kalom. Collins - after decades of denials about never even knowing the women - changed his story, and now claimed that it was Arnold Davis who murdered both Karen Sue Beineman and Alice Kalom.

It would be interesting to hear what Arnold Davis might have to say today.

Christine Rothchild, 18, Murdered 26 May 1968 in Madison, WI

Christine was murdered at the University of Wisconsin. Many of the details of her murder seem similar to the Michigan Co-ed murders. Could they be linked?

 

[Richard]

John Norman Collins owned a blue/gray 1958 DeSoto similar to this one and drove it at the time murders of Mary Fleszar (9 July 1967) and Joan Schell (30 June 1968). Eye witness statements to police indicated a similar car being involved in both of those abduction/murders.



Some time in late 1968 or early 1969, Collins' mother bought a silver/gray 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass with black interior - similar to this one - for him. He drove it with his buddy Andrew Manuel from Michigan to Salinas, California in June 1969, using it to tow a stolen camping trailer.

Collins had met 17 year old Roxie Phillips on 29 June 1969, and had driven her to the home where she was staying in Salinas. He even went into the house with her and met another resident of the house. Although nobody saw him with Roxie on the day of her murder, later evidence tied him to the crime. Roxie was strangled to death with a piece of her flowered summer outfit, and a piece of cloth from that same clothing was later found in Collins' Oldsmobile. Roxie's body was found in a ravine near Carmel on 13 July 1969. Some of her personal items were found in various places along the route 68 roadside.

On 27 July 1969, the day after police first questioned Collins, he was seen cleaning the Oldsmobile inside and out at his mother's home in Center Line, Michigan. It was taken into evidence on 5 August 1969 and, even after the thorough cleaning, investigators found traces of blood and the portion of Roxie Phillips' clothing in it, linking him to her murder.

Following the 23 July 1969 murder of Karen Sue Beineman in the basement of the Leik house, her body was removed and transported to a remote rural area and dumped. This would have required the use of an automobile, and it is highly likely that Collins used his Oldsmobile for that job.
