Jeanine Luciano was 59 and a registered nurse from Plantation, Florida when she was killed on March 15, 2014. The shooting happened inside the home she shared with her longtime domestic partner, Michele McCann. McCann then called Jeanine’s mother, Joan Luciano, and said she had shot her daughter; Joan called 911 and officers found Jeanine already deceased.

Michele McCann was arrested at the scene and charged with murder; she was held without bond after an initial court appearance. Court statements and interviews noted McCann’s history of alcohol abuse and increasingly controlling behavior toward Jeanine, and friends and family described a pattern of emotional and psychological abuse. Neighbors said McCann’s behavior changed after a head injury in an industrial accident years earlier. No prior reports of domestic violence at the couple’s home were documented.

Jeanine’s colleagues at SeaView Nursing & Rehabilitation Center in Pompano Beach remembered her as a compassionate, dedicated nurse. Does anyone have information about Jeanine, Michele, or the neighborhood that might help clarify what led up to that night?
