CROSS LANES, W.Va. — A Cross Lanes man has pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter in connection to a 2023 shooting death.
Alexander Hall, 23, was previously charged with first-degree murder of Billie Parker, 52, of Spencer, but pleaded not guilty.
In early August 2023, Hall was charged with domestic battery after an incident with a woman at a Cross Lanes apartment building. According to police, Parker, the woman’s father, came to check on her, and Hall shot him twice.
Parker was taken to the hospital where he later died.
Hall is scheduled to be sentenced on September 22.
