Lisa Ann Millican

Thirteen-year old Lisa Ann Millican (circa 1969 - September 28, 1982) was a victim of a notorious kidnapping and murder that began at the Riverbend Mall in Rome, Georgia on September 25, 1982. That day Lisa was on a shopping outing with other residents of the Ethel Harbst Home for Neglected Girls. Separated from her group, Millican was snatched from the mall's gaming arcade by sexual predators Alvin and Judith Neeley. The Neeleys had previously committed other crimes in the mall, but the Millican case represented their graduation into sexual torture and murder. Millican was sexually abused for three days and then injected with drain cleaner, shot and thrown into Northern Alabama's Little River Canyon by Judith.ref|Cook For this and other murders, Alvin was sentenced to life imprisonment in Georgia. Judith, only 18 at the time of the killing, was sentenced to death in Alabama, but in a controversial decision in 1999, her sentence was commuted to life without possibility of parole by Alabama Governor Fob James.ref|CL
