GLOUCESTER COUNTY (CBS) — A Florida man and woman hired by an ex-boyfriend were charged with conspiracy to commit murder after attacking a New Jersey woman with acid, the Gloucester County Prosecutor’s Office said on Tuesday.
Betty Jo Lane, 38, and 39-year-old Jmarr McNeil, of Jacksonville, Florida, along with the ex-boyfriend, 49-year-old William DiBernardino, were charged with conspiracy to commit murder, criminal attempt murder in the first degree, aggravated assault and other offenses for the attack on July 26, officials said.
Lane and McNeil attacked the 42-year-old Monroe Township, Gloucester County, woman at her home in the Forrest Hills development, according to the Gloucester County Prosecutor’s Office.
As the 42-year-old woman returned home from work and parked in her driveway, the Gloucester County Prosecutor’s Office said Lane threw a cup believed to be highly caustic acid at her.
