Algene Vossen, suspect in 1974 Willmar homicide, committed as mentally ill
A Kandiyohi County District Court ruling finds Algene Leeland Vossen mentally ill and orders him committed for six months, but the ruling does not find him mentally ill and dangerous, which would have resulted in placement in the Minnesota Security Hospital in St. Peter. Vossen was earlier found incompetent to stand trial on a murder charge in the 1974 homicide of Mabel Herman.
