Jameson McNeil, 26, of Washington, D.C., was sentenced yesterday by Superior Court Judge Lynn Leibovitz to 22 years in prison for a series of crimes he committed between August 2022 and February 2023.
The sentence was announced by U.S. Attorney Matthew M. Graves and Chief Pamela Smith of the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD).
McNeil pleaded guilty on May 6, 2024, to one count of armed carjacking and four counts of robbery. According to court documents, on February 7, 2023, McNeil was armed with what appeared to be a handgun when he ordered a woman out of her car while she was inside a parking garage in the 800 block of P Street NW.
The robberies stemmed from McNeil’s targeting of female victims who were walking alone.
On August 1, 2022, McNeil approached a woman walking alone in the 600 block of 21st Street SE and robbed her of her purse.
Between February 13, 2023, and February 15, 2023, McNeil robbed three other women of their property – one in the 400 block of 7th Street NE, one in the 400 block of G Street NE, and one in the 1700 block of A Street SE.
McNeil committed an armed carjacking on Capitol Hill in April 2023. He was running from the victims’ car when MPD officers found him hiding under a different car.Â
