Kansas Suspect Arrested Charged With Rape, Burning Woman Alive


 
Cornell A. McNeal, 26, of Wichita, had been charged with attempted capital murder and rape in the attack.

[From article]
A 36-year-old woman who had been sexually assaulted and set on fire died Saturday morning, police said, just over a week after she was found in a Wichita park with severe burns on more than half her body and cuts on her head.

Cornell A. McNeal, 26, of Wichita, had been charged Friday with attempted capital murder and rape in the attack, as well as with two counts of arson stemming from fires that were set that day in the park and at a garage.

Police said McNeal was linked to the attack by forensic evidence obtained after the woman was taken to a hospital.
[. . .]
Sedgwick County District Court records show that a woman whom McNeal had once dated got a protection from abuse order against him in 2007, alleging that after she broke up with him, McNeal had threatened her and had broken windows out at her home and car.
That woman is not the same person as the victim in the park case, police said.
