What is ‘Killer Sally’, the Netflix documentaries?

There are disturbing documentaries on Netflix, but there are others that tell shocking stories about murder.

Such is the case of “Killer Sally,” a documentary that tells how Sally McNeil, a former professional bodybuilder, ended her husband’s life on Valentine’s Day.

It has a total of three episodes featuring interviews with Sally and her two children. In these they recount their testimonies of what happened.

And it is that the woman was sentenced to 19 years to life in prison after being found guilty of second degree murder.

But what really exposes ‘Killer Sally’ is the fact that before she committed this heinous crime, the former bodybuilder was a victim of psychological and physical abuse from her partner.

The True Story of ‘Killer Sally’, Netflix Documentary

As mentioned in the Netflix documentaries, Sally McNeil is a former American bodybuilder who served for years in the United States Marine Corps.

There she met the father of her children (Sadina and John). But he turned out to be an aggressive man, so she parted ways with him.

Years later he met Ray McNeil, a Marine with whom he shared a great passion for bodybuilding. She married him and they started living together.

But his “love story” ended in disaster, as Sally shot him twice with a shotgun in the house they shared, thus ending his life.

She always maintained that she did it in self-defense, as she claimed that both her children and herself had been victims of various acts of violence by Ray.

However, Ray’s friends and those in charge of the case insisted on characterizing Sally’s actions as a cold-blooded murder.

In addition, she was portrayed as a violent woman due to her large muscles and was stigmatized because she had previously dedicated herself to making fetish wrestling videos.

What happened to Killer Sally and her kids?

Sally was eventually found guilty of second-degree murder and sentenced to 19 years to life in prison.

He was paroled in June 2020. He later remarried and currently lives in Northern California.

For their part, their children, Shantina and John, grew up with their maternal grandparents and both decided to pursue military careers.

Both now have families of their own, and although they also suffered the ravages of their mother’s abusive relationship, they are currently trying to have a good relationship with her.

However, there are those who believe that the Netflix documentary, “Killer Sally,” did not delve into what happened to Sally’s children while she was in prison.

Additionally, some feel that the documentary focuses primarily on Sally’s perspective on events, which leaves out Ray McNeil’s perspective. What do you think;
