Police: Suspect admits killing parents

WARREN

Louis R. Mann told police he strangled his mother to death with a clothes line during an argument, then “took out 31 years of rage” on his father by hitting him in the head with a flashlight and shooting him.

Later that day, Mann picked up a woman, partied with her at local motel, told her he had killed someone, then drove her to his parents’ Jefferson Street Southwest home and showed her the bodies.

Mann, who was arrested on Saturday, the day after the murders, was in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court Monday afternoon, charged with two counts of aggravated murder. He is being held on $3 million bond.
