Saturday-Night Documentary Showdown: ‘Murder in Mansfield’ vs. ‘Jonestown’

A Murder in Mansfield

The Setup: A son seeks answers with the help of Oscar-winning documentarian Barbara Kopple (Harlan County USA). Collier Boyle was 11 on New Year’s Eve 1989 when his father, John, bludgeoned his mother in their Ohio home and hid her body under the basement floor of a newly purchased place in Erie, Pennsylvania. Twenty-six years later, Kopple accompanies Boyle to his childhood house, to a reunion with detectives — and to prison to ask Dad for the truth.

The Most Disturbing Bits: Early on, we see archival footage of an eerily composed preteen Collier testifying at John’s trial. Video evidence of his mother’s body being extracted from her concrete grave is horrific. Yet John’s selfish, occasionally angry letters to his son after his conviction are almost as upsetting.

Try to Wrap your Brain Around… John’s protestations of innocence. When the two men sit down at Marion Correctional Institution, he

Skylar Neese murder recounted in Saturday Oxygen network show

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — The horrific murder of a Star City teenager by her so-called best friends is recounted in a network showing on the Oxygen network.

“Snapped, as well as Dateline and 20/20, all the networks have done a pretty good job covering the story. There’s only so much they can
in an hour like that to cover such complex material, but they do a good job,” explained Geoff Fuller, the co-author of Pretty Little Killers.

The book explores the brutal stabbing of Skylar Neese, 16, in July 2012. Fuller, interviewed for the season premiere of Snapped this month, watched the episode after it first aired August 7.

“They essentially took the chronological thread following the story from Skylar’s disappearance to Rachel’s confession and the arrest and conviction of Shelia,” detailed Fuller.

Rachel Shoaf and Shelia Eddy are jailed for Neese’s murder. They attempted to bury her body in a wooded area across the state
