'Slavemaster' indicted again, this time on federal charges
Convicted serial killer John Robinson, already serving two life sentences in two states, was indicted on a federal charge in one of the murders and may face the death penalty, authorities said Thursday. U.S. Attorney Todd Graves said the charge arose because John E. Robinson Sr. tricked 27-year-old Suzette Trouten into moving to Kansas from Michigan, and their path took them through Graves' western Missouri district.
