TRENTON -- A city man has been indicted for the brutal stabbing death of his girlfriend in March.

Brian Carlos Oliver, 40, is charged with murder, theft and a weapons offense in the death of 38-year-old Lisa Glennon, the mother of his daughter. Prosecutors say Oliver brutally beat and stabbed Glenn 23 times before stashing her body under the basement steps of a Melrose Avenue home.


Oliver fled to New York and was arrested hours later at a Bronx hotel. Police found Glennon's body after a relative of Oliver reported that Oliver had said he killed her. Prosecutors said two children, one 15 years old and the other 7 years old, were asleep upstairs during the murder. Neither child was harmed.

Prosecutors said an autopsy showed that Glennon had no defensive wounds on her body and appeared to have been dragged under the basement stairs.
