True Murder, with your host, journalist and author, Dan Zufansky.

Good evening.

Between the summers of 1967 through 1969, before the term serial killer was coined, a predatory

killer stalked the campuses of Eastern Michigan University and the University of Michigan

seeking prey until he made the arrogant mistake of killing his last victim in the basement

of his uncle's home.

All American boy John Norman Collins was arrested, tried, and convicted of the strangulation

murder of Karen Sue Bynamen.

The other murders attributed to Collins never went to trial, with one exception, and soon

became cold cases.

With the benefit of 50 years of hindsight, hundreds of vintage newspaper articles, thousands

of police reports and countless interviews, terror in Yipsilani, John Norman Collins

unmasked, tells the stories of the other victims, recreates the infamous trial that took

Collins off the streets, and details Collins' time spent in prison.

Terror in Yipsilani compiles an array of physical and circumstantial evidence, trying an unmistakable

portrait of the sadistic murderer who slaughtered these innocent young women.

The book that we're featuring this evening is Terror in Yipsilani.

John Norman Collins unmasked.
