She’s been stabbed and cut 16 times before she was decapitated.

Peacemaker has admitted walking her home from a downtown bar after a night of drinking, but he says he was only there for about 20 minutes before leaving.

His defense counsel made a motion during trial seeking an acquittal due to a lack of evidence, but the judge denied that motion.
