Kilroy’s friends call him
ambitious, ‘typical kid’
AUSTIN (AP) — Mark Kilroy’s friends at the Uni
versity of Texas describe the pre-med junior as a “typ
ical kid” whose ambition to go to medical school drove
him to succeed.
“School came first to him and he knew how to draw
that line,” Frank J. Padula, Kilroy’s neighbor and a se
nior history major at UT-Austin, said. “He was just an
average, typical incoming kid. He was nervous, he
wanted to meet some girls, but he knew he had school
work to do.”
ber him winning all kinds of math and science awards !
know he was confident about school. There was no
doubt in my mind he would get into medical school.”
Shead said she was in shock when she heard Kilroy’s
body had been found, and she found it hard to compre
hend that he may have been sacrificed in a satanic cult
ritual.

Paul Dugas, a neighbor and friend of Kilroy, said
classwork was very important to the 21-year-old stu
dent, whose mu.tilated body was found with 11 others
west of Matamoros, Mexico, on Tuesday.
“He used to come over for dinner and he would be
completely exhausted, and it wasn’t from physical activ
ity; it would be from studying to his capacity,” Dugas
said.
Tammy Shead, who attended Santa Fe High School
with Kilroy, said he was always trying to be the best.
“He was very intelligent, a super-smart guy,” Shead,
a UT psychology junior, said. “In high school I remem-
“I don’t remember hearing about satanism in high
school,” Shead said. “You don’t expect one of your
good friends to be an innocent victim of it.”
University president William Cunningham said the
school shared the grief of Kilroy’s family and friends.
“This is a tragedy for the Kilroy family and the uni
versity,” Cunningham said. “Mark was an excellent stu
dent who had a great deal to offer our state and nation.
The entire university community joins Mark’s family in
their sorrow.”
Ronald Brown, vice president for student affairs,
said the university will offer counseling to Kilroy’s fam
ily and friends.
“Our sympathy goes to the family,” Brown said.

Officials: Murdered millionaire
more than merely monogamous
DALLAS (AP) — As a millionaire
wholesaler and retailer, Harold E.
“Jack” McCollum had a yen for
travel but it wasn’t always to manage
his far-flung enterprises, according
to authorities who claim he headed
households in different cities.
More than two years after McCol
lum was slain on the banks of the
Navasota River in East Texas, inves
tigators are no closer to solving the
crime. But they say the businessman
had been married to at least four
women at the same time.
vive the controversy over the slaying.
“He was a great man, very intelli
gent, with high standards, out
wardly,” he said. “But he was a sick
man — mentally sick. He had a quirk
about him. Outside of that, he was
normal.”
Wilson said that until recently, in
vestigators were still pursuing leads
in the slaying.
“It came to a dead end,” he said.
“We worked on a little lead about
three weeks ago. It’s turned out to be
nothing so far.”
Wilson said Jack McCollum’s slay
ing was unrelated to the June 1988
slayings of four people in Houston
and Irving, including former mem
bers of a polygamist cult.
Before his 1986 death, McCollum
was leading a double life with mar
riages to Angeline McCollum of Dal
las and Marguerite McCollum of
Waco, and neither family knew
about the other for 29 years, said
Leon County Sheriff Royce Wilson.
“You would think, over those
years, that there would be some
medical problems — maybe the flu
or a heart attack — that would cause
somebody to suspect something, but
there was none,” Wilson said. “He
just was marrying and getting di
vorces.”
Investigators found evidence that
McCollum had been married at least
10 times over a half-century, the
sheriff said.
“We finally stopped counting
then,” said Wilson.
He said the 68-year-old business
man apparently juggled the differ
ent marriages by telling his families
his enterprises forced him to travel
constantly.
Robert McCollum, the business
man’s brother and former partner
who now runs his own Waco tire
company, said he did not want to re-
Judge orders arrest
of probation violator
DALLAS (AP) — A 27-year-
old Dallas man who confessed a
probation violation to what he be
lieved was a sympathetic state
judge was shocked when the
judge ordered him arrested.
Thomas G. Jones was sen
tenced last month to 10 years pro
bation after pleading guilty to
robbery and unauthorized use of
a motor vehicle. At the time, state
District Judge Larry Baraka told
Jones to come to him if he needed
help. So when Jones had trouble
continuing a court-ordered drug
treatment program, he showed
up in Baraka’s courtroom.
“He thought I would just talk
sweet to him,” Baraka told the
Dallas Times Herald. “When I
put him in custody, he got scared
and broke and ran.”
Bailiffs chased Jones down the
hall from the fifth floor court
room and cornered him in an
other courtroom.
Jones had told the court’s pro
bation officer the drug treatment
sessions the judge ordered were
too tough, so he stopped attend-
AiA£ C4 v xOidLlOli Oi Ilia pi uuaiiOll.
When the officer took Jones
before the judge, who was busy
with an unrelated jury trial, Bar
aka told bailiffs to find Jones a
seat. But when bailiffs asked
where, Baraka replied: “It
doesn’t matter. He’s in your cus
tody now.”
Hearing that, Jones bolted
from the courtroom with bailiff
Nolan Davidson in hot pursuit.
Davidson cornered and hand
cuffed Jones, eventually return
ing the sheepish-looking prisoner
to Baraka’s courtroom.
“I told him he was acting like a
real weakling and it was time for
him to be a man,” said Baraka,
who told Jones he should have
known he could be arrested when
he came in confessing a probation
violation.
“I know, sir,” Jones told Bar
aka. “I just lost my head.”
But Baraka gave in — some
what. Rather than sending Jones
to prison, he allowed him to con
tinue on probation provided
Jones attends a different drug-
treatment program.
