Man Indicted For 2009 Murder
June 8, 2012
An Escambia County man was indicted Thursday on murder charges.
An Escambia County grand jury returned the indictment charging Joseph Rhashawn McNeil with first degree premeditated murder or felony murder for the death of Derry Dickerson.
Dickerson was stabbed in his own home on Crescent Drive on October 9, 2009. Investigators said McNeil stabbed Dickerson several times and took beer and money from Dickerson. During the investigation and forensic tests, McNeil was developed as a suspect and subsequently charged, according to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office.
He was arrested late last month in Pollock, LA.

One Response to “Man Indicted For 2009 Murder”
I would like to point out that there is not always an arrest right after a crime has been committed. Sometimes folks wait until they have enough evidence to be sure, or at least relatively sure, they have the guilty party.
This is a good thing.
