Latasha Norman’s Boyfriend, Arrested and Charged for Murder, Leads Police to Her Body

The body of a Jackson State University student missing since Nov. 13 has been found, and her boyfriend arrested and charged with murder, police said Thursday.

Latasha Norman, a 20-year-old accounting student from Greenville, Mississippi, was found dead in a wooded area on Brown Street near County Line Road in Jackson, said Sgt. Jeffrey Scott, spokesman for the Jackson Police Department.

“The agencies involved in this case worked very hard,” Scott told BlackAmericaWeb.com. "Regrettably, it came to this outcome."

Norman’s boyfriend, 24-year-old Stanley Dwayne Cole, is in the Jackson jail, being held without bond in connection with the death, Scott said. He did not give a motive for the murder.

Cole was arrested Thursday morning when he appeared in a Pearl, Mississippi courtroom on charges of simple battery involving an earlier incident with Norman, authorities said.

Investigators questioned Cole several hours, Scott said. Based on information from the interviews, authorities were able to locate the body, he said.

Cole also was a student at Jackson State, according to Anthony Dean, university spokesman

Giving Thanks for Latasha's return...in advance!

JACKSON, Miss. — A college student has been missing for a week, and this city’s police chief says her race is the reason her disappearance hasn’t gotten more attention.

Latasha Norman, who is black, was last seen November 13 in one of her classes at Jackson State University. Her car was left on the campus, and the 20-year-old never returned to her dormitory room.

Luther Samuel, a detective with the campus police, said investigators have combed the campus and have been searching all over the state, but no sightings of Norman have been reported.

Police say they have no suspects. Among the people they have questioned are her current boyfriend and an ex-boyfriend who was charged Thursday with hitting Norman last month.

Jackson Police Chief Malcolm McMillin said Norman’s disappearance should get “the same kind of concern” as that of Stacy Peterson, 23, a white woman from suburban Chicago who has been missing for three weeks.


“As far as the interest by the national media in the story, I think race probably had an impact,” said McMillin, who is white. “It’s a small college in the South. It’s the daughter of simple people who maybe are not important outside of their circle, and maybe we don’t attach the same importance to them that we do for other people.”

Police have named Peterson’s 53-year-old husband, a former police officer, as a suspect in her disappearance. Drew Peterson denies any wrongdoing, but prosecutors also are investigating the 2004 death of his third wife, which they now believe was a homicide staged to look like an accident.

Norman is a junior accounting major from the Mississippi Delta city of Greenville.

“We’re not going to stop until we know something. We’re going to be relentless,” said her father, Danny Bolden. “I’ll ask that God may touch whoever … may have done this, that they may come forward and bring Tasha back to us because we love her very much."

Ole School "Bad Boy" Norman Mailer...In Heaven Causing More Controversy!! :)

Goodbye, Norm!
Whether you loved, or hated him Norman Mailer could care less.
The famous or infamous (depending on the perspective) author Norman Mialer has died at the age of 84, of kidney (renal) failure.

Known for not kowtowing to society's expectations, Norman was a man of total unexpectation.

He was a brawler, drank, smoked weed, married 6 x's-stabbing wife #2 almost fatally, had 9 children, refused to use a computer-writing with a pen 1500 words/day.
Because of his staunch position against women's lib--he was known as " the ultimate chauvinist pig."


Mailer's greatest literary work (according to some) was called "The Naked and The Dead" which was based on his experience in the army, and was a bestseller at the age of 25.

The literary world will never be the same without hellcat Norman Mailer.
