This case surfaced this weekend in a discussion of another unsolved case that happened a week earlier near Chicago:
The unsolved murder of Valerie Percy
It's not hard to pop the lenses out of sunglasses.
All letters mailed to the media while Thoresen was alive contained two stamps and a notation containing the word editor (you seem to have ignored the editor part.) Both MOs ended at the point in the timeline when he died. Not to mention that...
You are missing something.
My last post was 478 words.
When I checked back today, it had been reduced to 111 words.
So it would appear that what you're missing is 367 words.
Speaking of evidence. I have noted the circumstantial evidence that connects the Morrison Means murders to Alice Kalom's murder.
People here might want to look at the "Muskegon Mixer" handwriting evidence that police believe Jane Mixer's killer left at her school and compare it to the...
You write posts where you show a bunch of knives and talk about how Collins owned a knife (gee, a young guy in a small town in Michigan owned a knife? Wow!) and, in a fit of pure speculation you suggest that there just isn’t the DNA to connect him to a knife or the knives in question.
And you...
In a recent news media story on the case, Tom Voigt noted similarities between the 1962 slaying of cab driver, Ray Davis, in Oceanside, CA and various Zodiac crimes.
Yet both the news media and Voigt continue to ignore that there seem to be even more similarities between the crimes of Zodiac...
That theory sounds like hearsay.
How about "Pam" in that "documentary" who appears may not have even been born, let alone was old enough to have known Collins prior to his arrest? And why is she, fifty years later, only identified as "Pam" when it's 50 years later? What could she possibly be...
A month before Alice Kalom was murdered, high schoolers Mike Morrison and Debbie Means were murdered in Illinois.
Abducted at night, they were taken to an industrial site, property owned by the Peabody Energy Company, a mine. Morrison was shot in the head with a .22. Both were murdered there...
When the point was made that most serial killers don't become serial killers until they're at least in the mid 20s. and Collins was just 21 when arrested, Richard responds by saying Gacy jumped into a coffin when a teenager. Such a response is a page out of the spook playbook. Respond to a good...
Your bias is showing in your writing. "Even if the following turned out to be true." You're questioning whether someone who didn't know these guys wouldn't think their basic descriptions were strikingly similar when they were...height, hair color, hair styles, build. Not only that, I've supplied...
I see a long list of former FBI agents make up the team now claiming to have cracked this case. FBI documents confirm that they believed Thoresen to be a prime suspect for the murder of Valerie Percy. Six years later, on the admission of one of their agents after he retired, they planted a...
Gacy was also a story teller and pathological lair. Why would anyone trust what he said?
Chicago produced H. H. Holmes, Leopold and Loeb, Ralph Raymond Andrews, John Wayne Gacy and William Thoresen.
But little John Collins, 21, of little Ypsilanti, with one conviction is a "serial killer."
Your story about Gacy in the coffin proves my point. Jumping in a coffin with a body is not being a serial killer. He was too young at that time and didn’t actually kill until a decade and a half later.
Even if Collins did commit the murder he was convicted of, which it’s clear he completely lacked the resume for, there is the mystery of why it was all over the media that he is a “serial killer” when there is no evidence he is one and there are numerous reasons to believe he is not one...
