http://www.latimes.com/world/europe/la-fg-death-american-woman-italy-20160110-story.htmlItalian police on Sunday were investigating the death of an American woman whose naked body was discovered in her home in Florence.
Ashley Olsen, 35, from Summer Haven, Fla., who moved to Florence from the United States three years ago, was found strangled on Saturday in her one-bedroom apartment in the arty Santo Spirito district of the Tuscan city, authorities said.... Investigators found bruises and scratches on Olsens neck, and no evidence of forced entry at the apartment. Olsen was strangled, and we are trying to establish her movements before her death, said a police source in Florence, who added that an exact time of death had not yet been fixed. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the case publicly...
Postings on her Instagram account suggest she may have had a stalker.
