Danielson arraigned for murder of ex-girlfriend

NORWICH – William H. Danielson, 48, charged with the Dec. 27 murder of his ex-girlfriend and mother of his child, was arraigned in Norwich Town Court Monday.
Danielson was initially arraigned last week without representation in Chenango County Court for the class B felonies of attempted murder in the second degree and robbery in the first degree.
He was remanded to the Chenango County Correctional Facility without bail by Judge Frank B. Revoir, Jr.
After the victim, 39-year-old Lucinda Knoll, died from sustained injuries at UHS Wilson Medical Center in Johnson City Sunday night, a further charge of the class A-1 felony of murder in the second degree was brought before Danielson.
Lieutenant Richard Cobb and Detective Gary Miller with the Chenango County Sheriff's Office attended the arraignment, along with District Attorney Joseph McBride and First Assistant District Attorney Stephen M. Dunshee.
Danielson, dressed in orange and bearing handcuffs and shackles, was escorted into the courtroom by corrections officers and his appointed attorney, Public Defender Scott. J. Cippinger.
Danielson kept his head down and eyes on the ground. He made no expressions with his mouth and did not say a word.
Judge James Fox presided over the arraignment.
Despite assertions from Clippinger that a full reading of the charges should be waived, Fox said, “Due to the circumstances of this case, Mr. Clippinger, I am going to read the full charge.”
The charge stated a deputy of the Chenango County Sheriff accused Danielson of murdering victim, Lucinda Knoll, in the second degree.
It is alleged that on Dec. 27, at approximately 6:30 a.m. at 110 Bourbon St. in the Town of Norwich, the defendant, with intent to cause the death, did cause the death of another person by “striking the victim on the head several times.”
Clippinger waived a reading of Danielson's rights and entered a plea of not guilty for his client.
When Fox asked about the matter of bail, McBride said the statute precludes bail.
“We are not seeking bail, Judge,” said Clippinger.
Danielson will continue to be incarcerated in the Chenango County Correctional Facility without bail.
Danielson will have a preliminary felony hearing in the Town of Norwich Court on Thursday, Jan. 2.
