A murder occurred in which the victim, a young female, was found in the living room floor of her single family home with stab wounds to her chest. The victim was fully clothed. The victim was not married but had a male friend who visited her often. The living room floor was carpeted and on the living room coffee table was a drinking glass, half filled with a brown fluid. The drinking glass appeared to have smudges on the exterior of the glass including along the rim. The victim had a dog, a rottweiler that was locked in the basement of the home. The back door to the residence was left open. In the backyard was found a knife that appeared to have a dark substance on the blade. A neighbor was heard saying, “I heard the dog was locked in the basement. That dog hates strangers and is vicious.
