CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA — The family of 21-year-old Mary Collins, who was stabbed 133 times and stuffed inside a mattress in one of Charlotte’s most shocking murder cases, says they are outraged after a judge allowed one of the accused accomplices to remain free despite repeated violations of her bond conditions.
America Diehl, who was 18 years old at the time of Collins’ killing in 2020, has failed to charge her electronic ankle monitor multiple times, missed curfew, and violated other release terms — yet a Mecklenburg County judge refused to revoke her bond and even ordered the ankle monitor removed, prosecutors said.
