GUILTY NY - Sarah Coit, 23, murdered in her NYC apartment, 10 April 2011

Uncontrollable rage, and one split-second decision that changed everything, and ended a young life. So, so sad.
 
Barrera, a 33-year-old public relations worker with a violent past, told cops he "became enraged and picked up a knife which had fallen to the floor and stabbed Sarah Coit," a criminal complaint charged

What a beauty she was!!! RIP.

Some (not all, but most) of the comments listed under this story make me want to scream. They are so insensitive.

A beautiful young girl lost her life.

Bottom line.
 
Kudos to the kid upstairs who called the police.
 
When I read these horrible stories, I always hope there is a point very early on in the crime when the victim stops feeling pain and is no longer associated with what is happening to them.
 
The New York Post says today that she was still alive when the police got to her door. When they asked her if she was able to open the door herself, she said, "No." That was her last word.
 
Wow, just wow.

The hotheaded Manhattan man accused of stabbing his girlfriend to death didn't just try to cut off her head - he tried to destroy her face, too, police sources said.

"It was pure anger," one of the sources said Monday - a day after cops found Sarah Coit's body in a blood-spattered Clinton St. apartment on the lower East Side.

"He didn't want her to leave, and he didn't want her to be beautiful for anyone else."
