John Norman Collins – Part 6 of 8

What started in July of 1967 would go on to last nearly three years, culminating in the conviction of John Norman Collins on August 19, 1970. Even before the death of 18-year-old Karen Sue Beineman, John Norman Collins was on police’s radar, having been identified as the last person with Beineman prior to her murder. He was ultimately arraigned on August 1, 1969, resulting in a trial that was anything but simple.
