Milwaukee, WI - On Wednesday,  Dajuan Shaquille Collins, 19, was charged with two felony counts of murder for the January 15, homicides of Arthur L. Robinson, 29, and Michael J. Parker, 44, at the 1100 block of S. 24th St. Collins is facing two life terms in prison without the possibility of parole. A $500,000 cash bail for Collins was set and he remains in custody.

The criminal complaint stated, Maltese Williams and Collins' girlfriend told police that Collins had fatally shot both victims. 

Collins confessed that he and Williams had gone to Parker's residence to steal drugs and money. When they arrived at Parker's home, Parker and Williams went to the kitchen to make a transaction while Robinson slept on the couch. Then a scuffle ignited and Williams shot both men.

In contrary,  Williams told police that Collins had fatally shot both men and Collins' girlfriend told police that Collins had confessed to her that he actually shot the victims. After shooting the victims, Collins jumped out of the living room window dropping a hat and his cell, which police recovered at the crime scene and traced back to Collins.

Parker apparently fled the scene after being shot and dropped dead at the southeast corner of S. 24 and W. Scott. Police recovered his body and went into the residence where they found Robinson's body inside.

Williams has not been charged in the crime.
