Appellate court denies ex-girlfriend’s DNA and crimes in Barton McNeil’s request for new trial in 1998 Bloomington murder

An appeals court has denied Barton McNeil’s request to reconsider evidence and grant him a new trial in a 1998 Bloomington murder. McNeil was convicted of first-degree murder for the smothering death of his 3-year-old daughter, Christina. He has long maintained his innocence, claiming his ex-girlfriend Misook Nowlin to be the killer. She has denied that.
