NORWICH – Monday was the one year anniversary of murder victim, Lucinda Knoll's death. Her ex-boyfriend is to go on trial for her murder in 2015.

On Dec. 27, 2013 at approximately 6:45 a.m. Chenango County Dispatchers received a 911 call reporting a female had been assaulted and robbed outside a residence at Maple Grove Trailer Park in the Town of Norwich.

Knoll, 39 of Norwich was found in her driveway, unconscious and covered in blood with severe trauma to her head. Her then seven-year-old son was close by and had witnessed her being attacked.

The mother of three died of her injuries two days later at Wilson Medical Center in Johnson City.

William H. Danielson, 49 of Oxford was arrested for the class B felony of attempted murder in the second degree and the class B felony of robbery in the first degree on the same day Knoll was attacked.

Danielson was Knoll's recent ex-boyfriend and father to the seven-year-old witness.

County dispatchers received another 911 call at 7:10 a.m. that morning reporting a one-car MVA involving a truck striking a utility pole off County Road 36 in the Town of Preston. According to the caller, a driver was not with the vehicle.

Sheriff’s investigators quickly discovered that the vehicle was registered to Danielson, who was found approximately one mile from the scene of the accident at his residence off of County Road 36. According to the investigator, the accident occurred while Danielson fled the scene after allegedly attacking Knoll.

After authorities investigated the physical evidence and spoke to witnesses, they believed Danielson had waited for Knoll to leave for work on Friday morning and attacked her after she had finished buckling their son into her vehicle.

Knoll's neighbor, Mitch J. O'Neil, heard the boy's cries for help and ran to his aid. O'Neil's wife called 911 and stayed with the boy, while O'Neil remained by Knoll's side until help arrived.

According to District Attorney Joseph A. McBride, the former couple had a contentious relationship over family court proceedings regarding their son. He said Danielson was “very mad and upset, because he felt family court had failed him.”
