I think Rita Cosby snagged the first interview with McNeill. The video is the last of the videos here:

He said: * He and the accuser were married 4 yrs, and divorced around 5 yrs. ago. * He ran into her at Walmart after the incident, spoke with her a few moments, and thought she looked "spaced out". * He told Rita he was just now finding out about her claims. * He made no comment to Rita's mention that at one time he and the accuser had restraining orders out on each other.
I'm not sure when they divorced. See also GAgal's post.
At 19, she married, but got separated two months later. She was divorced about a year later. In a brief interview Monday, her ex-husband described her as "very loving" and said she's usually quick to smile. He said he saw her about a week ago, and knew something was wrong by her demeanor. He also said she "has been hurt before," but didn't elaborate.
In 2002, she was working at a topless club in Durham, when she stole a cab driver's car keys while giving him a lap dance, according to a police report. When the driver went to the bathroom, she drove off in the cab and led police on a lengthy car chase. In the process, she smashed into a patrol car and attempted to drive through a fence, but was eventually arrested after her car got a flat tire. She tested at 0.19, more than twice the alcohol limit.
