    “did not want to eat the pancakes she made and stabbed her in the back,”

    the U.S. attorney’s office said in a statement announcing the arrest.

    Police were called to a stabbing incident at 3:40 p.m. When they arrived they discovered Sharron Schwartz with injuries and Steven Schwartz with self-inflicted injuries. Both individuals were transported to a hospital, where Sharron Schwartz later passed away. According to a police affidavit filed in the district criminal case, Steven Schwartz stated that he has a strong dislike for food, and his wife was attempting to make him eat, which led to an argument.

    Steven Schwartz told police that he suffers from a condition related to food aversion and depression. He expressed remorse, stating that his wife did not deserve to die and that he wished he had died instead.

    During a following interview with investigators, Schwartz disclosed that he and his wife had been married for 40 years and that he loved her deeply. He also mentioned that he had hoped the act of killing his wife was a figment of his imagination, according to another police document submitted to the court. Schwartz explained that he was in the process of recovering from a stroke at the time of the incident.

    The U.S. attorney’s office has charged Steven Schwartz with second-degree murder while armed. A Superior Court judge, after a hearing on Thursday, ordered that Schwartz be held without bail.

  • Man Finally Sentenced To Life For The 2021 Fatal Stabbing Of His Father, Prosecutors Say Suspect Stabbed Father With The Same Knife He Gifted Son With

    Man Finally Sentenced To Life For The 2021 Fatal Stabbing Of His Father, Prosecutors Say Suspect Stabbed Father With The Same Knife He Gifted Son With

    A California man is facing a life sentence for fatally stabbing his father with a knife he gifted him with, Radar reported. 

    James Shade, 32, was found guilty of first-degree murder for the fatal stabbing of his father, whose identity has not been disclosed. He was sentenced to 26 years to life in the California Department of Corrections. 

    Roseville Police Department said they responded to a call on March 14, 2021, about a stab victim. The unidentified victim was reportedly found lifeless on his neighbor’s front porch. According to the outlet, Shade was caught on surveillance footage fleeing the crime scene. Investigators later found documents in the victim’s home that revealed that the suspect was his son. 

    Police later apprehended Shade at his home in Paradise. Shade admitted to driving from his residence in Paradise to his father’s house in Roseville because he planned on serving his father with a restraining order, Radar reported. According to prosecutors, Shade arrived at his father’s home while armed with a knife, viciously stabbing him over 20 times with the same knife the victim gave to him weeks before the murder. 

    He claimed to be acting in self-defense, according to the outlet. 

    “Lack of remorse has been particularly disturbing [and] he showed no signs of remorse immediately after killing his father, during his testimony at trial and in statements he made after the jury rendered its verdict. His anger toward his father did not in any way justify his decision to brutally end another human’s life,”

    Deputy Director Attorney Anna Duffy said in a statement.

    Bronx Man Stabbed By Girlfriend In Stairwell Where He Slept On Nights She Wouldn’t Let Him In

    A Bronx woman is now in police custody after allegedly stabbing him to death in their apartment building’s stairwell, Daily News reported.

    On Saturday, at around 10:30 P.M., John “Biggie” Levestone began knocking in the door of the apartment he shared with girlfriend Crystal Fryson. Despite the 37-year-old begging to be let in, Fryson refused. The two then began a shouting match. “He was shouting and screaming at her,” said neighbor Justin Sanchez. “She kept shouting back from inside the apartment, ‘I don’t want to talk to you, you piece of s***!’”

    After a few minutes of back and forth, Levestone gave up and started walking towards the nearest stairwell, where he frequently slept when he was not allowed inside their apartment. On his way there, he attempted to break neighbors’ Ring cameras as he passed by them. “Now his broke a** is running,” Fryson was heard yelling from behind their apartment’s front door.

    Moments later, when Levestone was well into the stairwell, Fryson and two other women left the apartment to follow him, leaving a small child waiting and watching from the doorway. “He stopped hollering and went into the stairwell and she came out screaming,” Sanchez recalls. “The real fighting happened in the stairwell. They just kept yelling in the stairwell but I don’t know what happened after that. I just heard children start screaming and crying.”

    Fryson was then heard yelling in the stairwell as the two women she was with sprinted back to the apartment. “Move back, move back, move back, move back!,” she can be heard yelling at her boyfriend. “I dare you to come over here.”

    Shortly after, police arrived to find Levestone with stab wounds. He was taken to a nearby hospital where he sadly succumbed to his wounds. Fryson was arrested and charged with murder, manslaughter, and weapon possession.

  • Serial Killer Super Fan “Giggled” After Fatally Stabbing Boyfriend

    Serial Killer Super Fan “Giggled” After Fatally Stabbing Boyfriend

    In July of 2022, a 27-year-old woman in Havant, Hampshire slit the throat of her boyfriend before plunging the blade into his chest 17 times, The Telegraph reports.

    In her bedroom, which was decorated with framed photos of serial killers and weapons, Shaye Groves and Frankie Fitzgerald would have sex as they filmed. Both interested in BDSM, they would regularly videotape their sexual counters to imitate rape, despite it being consensual. Groves would later use the footage to claim self defense, but unedited versions refuted her claims.

    On the day of Fitzgerald’s death, Groves discovered that her boyfriend had been messaging who she mistakenly thought was a 13-year-old girl on social media. Though the individual had actually been 17, Groves acted out of jealousy and attacked Fitzgerald as he slept. Afterwards, she called a friend via video chat and “giggled” as she revealed the victim’s body.

    According to prosecutor Steven Perian, Groves used knowledge obtained from watching crime documentaries to portray herself as a victim of sexual violence. He says that “the defendant, by reading about and watching murder documentaries, she was familiar with crime scenes, how to create a false narrative, and how to set up a false alibi.”

    Despite her efforts, Groves was found guilty to murder following a trial. The 27-year-old has been sentenced to 23 years in prison.

  • Pittsburgh Man Arrested After Fatally Stabbing Estranged Wife And Sending Photo Of Her Body To Her Friend

    Pittsburgh Man Arrested After Fatally Stabbing Estranged Wife And Sending Photo Of Her Body To Her Friend


    The Pittsburgh man accused of fatally stabbing his wife, sending photos of her body to her friend, and then fleeing the state has been located and arrested.

    On Thursday, January 5th, when calls and texts to Tarae Washington went unanswered, her father looked for her at her Pittsburgh home. Inside the kitchen, he discovered his daughter’s body, People reported. He then dialed 911 and told dispatchers that his daughter “had been stabbed, is beyond help, and it was not self-inflicted.”

    Investigators noted that there traces of blood throughout the house: the bathroom walls and floor, bathtub, toilet, throughout the second floor’s hallway, the stairwell, the living room, the dining room, and the kitchen. Officials believe that a blood-covered carving knife that was found in the second floor’s hallway was used as the murder weapon.

    According to CBS News, Washington was in the process of divorcing her longtime husband, William Fitzgerald. She had filed for the divorce on November 1st, which was set to be finalized in February. Though her would-be former spouse wanted to reconcile the marriage, the police report states that Washington “was not interested.”

    Photos of Washington with another man were taken from her phone and sent to two people. The first recipient of the photos with a message reading, “This is why she wasn’t answering her phone in Baltimore.” The second person to receive the messages accused Fitzgerald of killing Washington. “Fitzgerald replies to the (witness’) accusations three times within the text message string,” police documents report. “Fitzgerald does not make any attempt to assert his innocence in the replies.” A third person later received a photo of Washington’s body after she was fatally stabbed. “This what y’all got her,” Fitzgerald texted.

    Four days later, on the following Monday, Fitzgerald was located in Morgantown, West Virginia, about 75 miles away from where the incident occurred. He was arrested and will remain in West Virginia pending an extradition hearing. Washington leaves behind two adult children, who have created a GoFundMe page in order to receive help for funeral expenses.

    “She gave so much of herself to us, to her grandkids, to all of her family and friends,” the fundraiser reads. “Her spirit shined like the morning sun, warming those who saw her and spreading joy and hope. It hurts to even write that she’s gone.”
