  • Walter Collins disappeared in March 1928. His disappearance was the focus of the 2008 movie, Changeing, which tells the story of the Los Angeles police department's attempts to convince his mother, Christine Collins, that they had found her son. The boy they produced was not Walter, however, and Mrs. Collins continued objections prompted the LAPD to commit her to a mental hospital. It was later estabished that Walter was most likely a victim of the Wineville Chicken Murders.

    In February 1929, Gordon Stewart Northcott was convicted of killing three young boys at his family's chicken ranch in Wineville, California. Although Collins' body was never recovered, he is presumed to have been one of Northcott's victims.
