Charges on David Patrick Neal

Upon awakening, he allegedly told police that he immediately confronted the hotel’s night manager, whom he recognized. Neal and another hotel employee had allegedly gone to his room the day before because the guest was experiencing problems with his room’s television, the station reported.

In an interview with WKRN, the guest said he was so shocked to see Neal in his room that he screamed before reporting the incident to hotel security and calling the police. Upon arrival at the hotel, police reportedly took the guest’s statement and spoke to Neal about the alleged incident.

Neal reportedly admitted to investigators that he had entered his room without the guest’s permission using a cloned room key. However, he told police that he only went into his room because he thought he could smell the smoke coming from inside and wanted to make sure everything was okay, WKRN reported.

In the arrest report, police noted that Neal did not notify anyone else on the hotel staff about his claim that he smelled smoke and no guests reported that he smelled smoke. Neal also reportedly told police that after leaving the guest room, he threw away the cloned key, which was never recovered.

“All my life you just have that feeling of security and that feeling of peace, right? It’s not like you’re camping and you have to keep an eye open. You have that security that is yours, and when you close your eyes, you feel like you are safe and protected and it was a total violation,” the victim told WKRN. “I was so, so shocked. It was, ‘Who are you? Why are you in my room? It was almost like a dream, some kind of nightmare. It just didn’t make sense. Why is this person touching me?

In his lawsuit against the hotel, the guest’s attorney pointed out that Neal has a criminal past, including serving five years in prison for manslaughter.

“Multiple counts of forgery, drinking and driving, a manslaughter conviction as well, which he did prison time,” said Michael Fisher, one of the victim’s attorneys. “When Hilton hired this person, they had to have known it. They have to do background checks to find out, and the fact that they would put someone like that in a position where they have the ability to clone keys, they have the ability to get into a guest room.”

It was not clear Saturday if Neal had an attorney in the civil suit or in the criminal case. Referring to the allegations, Fisher added, “He’s just shocking,” adding, “We haven’t seen a case like this.” Fisher did not immediately respond to a message from Law & Crime.

Neal was indicted in Wilson County in 1996 on one count of second-degree murder for shooting his roommate, according to Nashville NBC affiliate WSMV-TV. Although he claimed that he was defending himself, a jury in 1997 found him guilty of one count of voluntary manslaughter. In a statement to WKRN, the hotel said it is cooperating with police and is not commenting on the ongoing investigations. Neal was taken into custody Friday and being held in lieu of $27,000 bail.Read More……
