Kalamazoo man gets prison for neighbor’s murder

KALAMAZOO, Mich. (WOOD) — A Kalamazoo man who murdered his neighbor more than four years ago is heading to prison.

A judge Monday sentenced Todd Maneke to 15 to 20 years in prison in connection to the August 2013 death of Alfred Minka.

Maneke was charged with murder in the case in August 2016, about three years after police found Minka’s body inside his Brookmont Drive home.

In the probable cause document filed the day of Maneke’s arrest, a Kalamazoo detective testified that Maneke eventually admitted to borrowing Minka’s car to go buy drugs. Police found the victim’s blood on the steering wheel and driver’s side power window button.
