To Fight lonia for Flannery tist Church, Detroit, was the scene) of the wedding Saturday evening in! Lawyer Claims He will Be Better Off at State Hospital in Northville BERKLEY — Detroit attorney Joseph W. Louisell planned to move today to prevent the commitment of Patrick J. Flannery to the Ionia State Hospital for the criminally insane. Louisell said over the weekend that Flannery, 19, of 995 Oxford St., Berkley, ‘‘desperately needs help but not at Ionia.” He said he would try to have Flannery sent to the State Mental Hospital at Northville instead. A Hillsdale County Circuit Court jury Friday found Flan- nery innocent by reason of in- sanity of the Nev. 26 slaying of Thomas Neitling, 21, of Tecum- seh. Neitling was bludgeoned to death with a shotgun as he slept in an off-campus room he shared with Flannery. Both were stu- dents at Hillsdale College, Circuit Judge Charles O. Arch sentenced Flannery under a state statute which holds a person found innocent of murder by reason of insanity must be sentenced to Ionia for life or until found sane by a competent colirt. “We think Flannery will have a better chance to recover at North- ville,’ Louisell said, ‘instead of among convicted criminal psyco- paths at Ionia."
