I wonder why her bond was set so low.
This was a horrible murder.
That must have been an absolutely, horribly painful way to die. The problem probably first started with alcohol, then jealousy, maybe domestic violence or the threat of it. But the woman must have gotten really angry and went into overkill. It didn't take that much beating of the man with her shoe to defend herself. She must have kept attacking him long after he stopped fighting with her.
It's unclear who the luxury apartment belongs to. I'd like to know if he was trying to quit seeing her, putting her up in style, what she does for a living, was she drunk and been out partying in stilettos, etc. She's no spring chicken but he was quite a bit older.
Tequila would explain a lot because I can't imagine her state of mind that this happened. Self Defense, oh no, not another one. Quick, send her one of those liar's survivor tee shirts.

"Trujillo had recently moved in with Andersson, and she told investigators that he grabbed her, and a struggle followed, KTRK reported."

"A prosecutor says a Houston woman accused of stabbing her boyfriend to death with her stiletto heel had been drinking tequila with him at a nightclub earlier.
...Prosecutor John Jordan told the judge the victim became angry at the nightclub after a man tried to buy Trujillo a drink. The defendant's statement says the victim became abusive at the condo."

I saw this on the local news last night, and then tonight I'm watching JVM and see her reenacting the murder with a stiletto heel on an innocent watermelon! Not even kidding.
I smell Jodi Arias...she's already claiming self defense. I agree with Time that if he was attacking her first how on earth would she be able to subdue him with a high heel? A lot of the injuries were to his face, I think she attacked him when he was vulnerable, probably sleeping.
I suppose it's possible that the first blow was extremely disabling (I'm having a difficult time knowing how much damage a stiletto heel can do vs a knife or, say, a letter opener/ice pick/etc.)....maybe in the eye or in a vulnerable area on the head? It does sound like a rage kill so I assume she will say she was defending herself but got out of control. I'm not ready to say there wasn't any threat to her yet (and maybe they threatened each other), just don't see how her reaction was justified.
Tequila - funny how you can be smashed on it and think you are not even drunk. My bet is that they had an ongoing and caustic relationship. Doesn't mix well with tequila or drugs. Add in some jealousy and....
