It was the worse two-week killing spree in Ohio's history. On the
night of July 21, 1948, Robert Daniels and John West entered John
and Nolena Niebel's house with loaded guns. They forced the family
including the Niebel's 21-year-old daughter, Phyllis, into their
car and drove them to a cornfield just off Fleming Falls Road in
Mansfield. The two men instructed the Niebels to remove all of
their clothing, and then Robert Daniels shot each of them in the
head. The brutal murders caught national attention in the media,
but the killing spree didn't stop there. Three more innocent people
would lose their lives at the hands of Daniels and West in the
coming week. Scott Fields tirelessly researched the killings, the
capture and trial of Daniels and even interviewed a surviving
member of the Niebel family to weave this tragic story into a
must-read novel bringing the reader back to those dark days in the
summer of 1948. What led to these brutal killings, and why was the
Niebel family singled-out to be savagely murdered? It has been more
than sixty years since the tragedy, and, yet, this question still
remains unanswered. The killing spree is not only remembered to
this day, but is an important and dark part of Mansfield lore.
