No one but Fox has reported the rage killing but they could have found castoff from wielding the knife over and over...She was probably asleep....The police press conference had no real info except to quit the mattress hunt, call ins as they already "have all they need"..

Not only from repeated strikes, but from repeated strikes in an area with large arteries, especially at the chest. This could open huge spurts of blood that would easily splash all over a 9-feet-high ceiling. Then, of course, there would be the splatters you've mentioned from the motion of the blade itself.

My guess is that Fox is the only one to report the confirmed police comment about a "rage killing" because Fox was the only one to get that scoop.
