'''Michael Ray McLellan''' (c. 1989) is a African American sex offender, rapist and murderer from Lumberton, N.C. and was responsible with the murder of Hania Aguilar

== Murder of Hania Aguilar ==
'''Hania Aguilar''' (March 21, 2005 - November 2018)

Over the last 12 years of his life, Michael Ray McLellan has spent more than nine years locked up. His criminal record dates back to 2000, which would make him 16 at that point.

According to Robeson County court records, his first crime was a misdemeanor assault on a child under 12 in 2000. Over the last 18 years, he has been charged with 26 offenses, 10 of them pending from the Hania case.
Hania was kidnapped Nov. 5 outside her mobile home on the outskirts of Lumberton as she was preparing to go to school. Her body was found Nov. 27, after a desperate three-week led by the FBI. McLellan was charged with the murder on Dec. 8, the same day that the eighth grade student’s funeral was held in the Lumberton High School gym.

“It has become a very big case,” Robeson County District Attorney Johnson Britt said last week.
McLellan’s charges include kidnapping, first-degree murder, first-degree forcible rape and concealment of a death.
“Ultimately,” Britt said, “this may have been a crime of opportunity. The unfortunate thing is it happened. A young teenager is dead. She did nothing more than what a lot of people have done in their lives. Gotta go to school. Gotta start the car. That simple act, her alone outside.”

McLellan was released from prison in June and was still under post-release supervision when Hania was killed. State records show he was convicted on felony breaking and entering and stealing a car in February and sentenced to serve nine to 20 months in prison. He was given credit for time served.

He was convicted in 2007 on assault with a deadly weapon and first-degree burglary. Records show McClellan was sentenced to prison for at least 10 years, up to 12 years and 9 months. “We’ve done about as much to him in the cases we have as we could,” said Britt, the district attorney.
But one case, which resurfaced in recent days, could have kept McLellan off the streets. His DNA existed in a federal database linking him to an unrelated rape in Robeson County on Oct. 20, 2016. Britt has said the Robeson County Sheriff’s Office made a mistake by failing to conduct a follow-up investigation on the rape evidence collection kit.

On Wednesday, the Sheriff’s Office announced that it had launched an investigation to find out why the evidence was overlooked. “It leads to the question, could Hania’s death have been avoided?” Britt said. “That answer? Yes, I think it could have been avoided. He would have been in jail, because he couldn’t make his bond.”
