Sad: Mom of Four Murdered; Note at Scene Warns to Release Lee Boyd Malvo

A woman who seemed to have her whole future before her, including a new marriage- found herself murdered instead, also claiming the life of her unborn baby. At the crime scene was a bloody note that warned that other pregnant women would die unless DC Sniper Lee Boyd Malvo was released from jail.

From NBC here:

A pregnant mother of four stabbed to death in her Brooklyn apartment the day before her wedding was found with a note vowing more pregnant women would die until “the DC sniper” is released from prison, NBC 4 New York has confirmed.

Smith was found on the floor of her home in East Flatbush on Saturday. Neighbors said she had moved into the area in recent weeks. Her other children are grown and did not live with her.

The note referring to sniper Lee Boyd Malvo was found underneath her body, a source confirms to NBC 4 New York. The source also says a bloody fingerprint was left on the note; investigators are analyzing the print.

Detectives do not believe the woman or her killer had any connection to the sniper; they think the message is a diversion attempt.

Police said there was no sign of forced entry, and no weapon was recovered.

Meanwhile Monday, Smith’s fiance, who remains married to a woman in New Jersey, was arrested for having a forged license plate. He is a person of interest in the case, law enforcement officials said.

The video at the website is pretty heart-wrenching. I hope they catch her murderer.
