ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — A man previously charged with having child pornography cut an electronic monitoring device off his ankle before carjacking a woman, fatally stabbing her and raping her 10-year-old daughter, authorities said.
David J. Renz abducted the school librarian and her daughter as they left a gymnastics class at a mall in the Syracuse suburb of Clay, about 150 miles west of Albany, on Thursday night, state police said Friday.
Renz bound both victims, raped the girl and drove a short distance to a spot where the girl escaped and was found by a passing motorist, troopers said.
The motorist told 911 dispatchers he saw a man running away from the scene, allowing police to quickly send in officers on the ground and a sheriff's helicopter in the air. Renz was caught a short time later near a wooded area.
It was unclear how the girl escaped or when her mother was killed, authorities said. "We're still trying to piece the timeline together," Trooper Jack Keller said.
The girl was being treated at a hospital Friday. Her mother died from multiple stab wounds.
Renz, 29, had been charged in January with possession of child pornography and allowed to remain free under terms that included staying off the Internet and away from places including schools, parks and arcades.
He lost his job at a supermarket, moved in with his mother and hadn't been able to find other work after his arrest, according to court documents. Federal authorities said he cut his electronic monitoring device off his ankle shortly before Thursday's attacks.
Renz was arraigned Friday on murder, rape and kidnapping charges and was held without bail. The lawyer assigned to his case, Ken Moynihan, didn't return a call seeking comment.

The state should give this guy a public hanging.
what no rape whistles?
disarming Americans is a real war on women
There is no pit in Hell deep enough.
If this woman had a gun she would have been able to save herself and save her daughter the hell of being brutally raped, but hey, according to leftists, guns are bad bad bad. Prayers for this woman’s family and the little girl left behind to suffer with these horrible memories of what she had to endure
This poor little girl doesnt even have her Mommy to comfort her now...
and she witnessed her mother being murdered..absolutely horrible..watch this guy get a slap on the wrist..didn’t New York abolish the death penalty?
>> The state should give this guy a public hanging.
The state let the douche bag roam. More than one deserves to be hanged.
Another triumph for leftist New York.
The state is complicit by forbidding its citizen from defending herself and family.
Okay, the guy was arrested with a huge collection of child porn. He faces a long time in jail, separated from porn and children so he rapes a child and murders her mother. The child escapes, avoiding being killed herself and prompting the arrest of the murderer. From hindsight, it has a twisted logic. It also has a lot to say about the sub human thought processes of grown men who are obsessed with children as sex objects. Cull the herd.
Wouldn’t need 10 rounds to take care of business with this one. 7 would do just fine, they’d be big ones.
roger that...
Too bad that poor lady didn’t have a .45 to stick in his eye socket.
Oh well, another pedophile murderer out running free. Par for the course in NYS.
I’d urge anybody to go up on the net and check how many registered sex offenders are living in their counties.
The number of them will shock you.
I wonder if Joe Biden will criticize her for not having her shotgun with her.
This is sick. Libtard gun free zone murder and rape. Guess we know which side the libtards are on, and it ain’t the victims.
weapons are not a guarantee - she may not have been able to save her life, but it’s clear that if she did, she would have had a fighting chance at least.
he’s not running free, article states they caught him.
She might have had a shot, Id rather be armed and take a chance protecting myself than being a sitting duck..if Im gonna go down I am gonna go down fighting, but leftists don’t want people to be armed..they’d rather people “Reason” with criminals..that never works
Of course what you say is true, and anybody can be taken by surprise. Having said that, I think in general most people, when armed, by virtue of being armed, tend to be somewhat more alert and aware of their surroundings, which can vastly decrease their chances of being caught off guard.
