John McNeill More News
On November 8, 1995, a North Carolina state jury convicted McNeill of first-degree burglary and of the first-degree murder of Donna Lipscomb. The evidence presented at trial tended to show that McNeill had been dating Lipscomb periodically prior to her death. On November 17, 1992, after McNeill and Lipscomb’s relationship encountered difficulty, McNeill went to Lipscomb’s apartment armed with a knife. After cutting the apartment’s telephone lines, McNeill forced his way into the apartment, where he began arguing with Lipscomb. The two then began shoving each other, and McNeill stabbed Lipscomb repeatedly in the upper torso, fatally wounding her.
