Willard Collins Hill Trial Postponed Today
Willard Collins, 54, indicted for a double slaying, has had his trial postponed due to illness. He is under observation at Lakin State Hospital. Prosecutors say he was not physically able to stand after hospital admission. Collins allegedly killed Lovell Foster and her husband at Kaymoor, saying voodoo spells had targeted his wife. Foster is jailed on a peace bond and lunacy charge. An examining physician deemed him mentally ill, with no action yet from the mental hygiene commission. Chester Flint, jailed for murder, faces trial today. This is the current term’s next case in Fayetteville circuit court. Henry Lesher was found guilty of second-degree murder. Denver Evans was acquitted in the Melvin Foster murder. The jury deliberated about 93 minutes before convicting Evans of the fatal churchyard shooting at Mose’s Tavern on Oak Hill-Ingeam Branch Road. The verdict was signed by Foreman J. G. Ramsey.
