Durham Man Kills Mother: Alexander Glenn Jr. Arrested in Shocking Red Mill Road Homicide
Durham man kills mother in a disturbing domestic incident that happened on May 15, 2025, at a home on Red Mill Road. Authorities have arrested 38-year-old Alexander James Glenn Jr., who is now facing charges for the brutal killing of his 64-year-old mother, Stephanie Donita McCoy.
According to the Durham County Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded to a disturbance at McCoy’s home on the morning of the incident. Upon arrival, officers found McCoy and Glenn Jr. in a heated argument. McCoy told deputies that her son had refused to give her the keys to a vehicle registered to her boyfriend and would not allow her to leave the house.

Deputies intervened and instructed Glenn Jr. not to drive the vehicle due to his expired driver’s license. Court records state that Glenn Jr. became upset and eventually left the home on foot. Hours later, deputies returned to the residence after a second 911 call—this time, McCoy was found dead with a deep puncture wound to the left side of her neck. The vehicle was no longer in the driveway.

In a defiant Facebook post made under the account name “AJ Glenn,” the suspect denied the accusations, writing: “I did not kill Stephanie McCoy. I was told to leave the house and not return by the sheriff deputies and that’s what I did.” He continued: “I maintain my innocence and will speak with authorities when it’s time.”

Family members told reporters that the relationship between McCoy and her son had long been strained and “complex.”
