Talk:Michigan Murders

message: This article mentions Jane Mixer, who was murdered during the same period of time as the other murders, though in an adjoining county.  Her killer, Gary Leiterman, was arrested in late 2004 and convicted in July 2005. (See http://www.courttv.com/trials/leiterman/072205_verdict_ctv.html .)  It is generally believed by those who have studied and written about the murder cases, that John Norman Collins committed all of the other murders.  This was definitely the view of people who lived in the area at the time and were privy to evidence that was reported in newspapers regarding the other victims, but which was inadmissable in the Bieneman trial.  Incidentally, anyone who edits this article should probably mention that John Norman Collins had his name legally changed while in prison.  This was part of a scheme (which failed) to get himself transferred to a Canadian prison at which some Canadian relatives might visit him...and "coincidentally", he would have had a much greater chance of obtaining release from a Canadian prison, than in the States.

message: I copy edited the article for punc, style, grammar, etc. It needs a whole lotta help, such as updated info, more sources, more footnotes and clarification. I'd attempt to tackle it myself, but I prefer to copy edit articles rather than write them. momoricks make my day 00:29, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

message: *Although well-researched and thorough, this lengthy article would certainly benefit from a list of the victims.  I would imagine that at some point in the past, there probably was such a table and that it was removed by a well-meaning editor who thought that he or she was making an improvement.  At some point, I'll check to see if there is one hidden in the history.  Mandsford 16:33, 5 October 2018 (UTC)

message: Currently, the talk page has the listas parameter in the WP Bio tag listed under Collins, John Norman; however, the article title is Michigan Murders; shouldn't the listas align with the article title? Thank you. --FeanorStar7 (talk) 21:53, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

message: "After [Collins' mother's] last prison visit, Chapman said, his aunt told the rest of the family her son confessed to killing Beineman, and after she died, left instructions in her will to give Collins nothing "for reasons that John is all too well aware of"
Chapman corresponded with John from the age. of ten onward, and he said that John expressed misogynistic views throughout the entirety of. their correspondance, theorizing that he took out his anger with his mother's dating choices on intelligent brunettes whose appearances were reminiscent of his motber's JointCompound (talk) 04:23, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
