NEW YORK (AP/1010 WINS)
-- Police shed more light Friday on events leading up to the stabbing
of a psychologist in her office, saying the killer was in a waiting
room with another patient for nearly a half hour before the bloody
attack.
The suspect slashed Kathryn Faughey 15 times with a meat cleaver and
a 9-inch knife in her Manhattan office Tuesday evening. A psychiatrist
who worked in the building, Dr. Kent Shinbach, came to Faughey's rescue
and was badly injured.
Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said the slasher arrived at 8
p.m., telling the doorman he had an appointment with Shinbach, then sat
in the waiting room with another of Shinbach's patients until she went
into his office around 8:30 p.m.
Sometime
after that, the killer entered Faughey's office and attacked her.
Shinbach came to her aid, but was assaulted and robbed.
The killer then tried to force Shinbach's patient, who had been in
Shinbach's office during the attack, into a bathroom; she kicked at him
and he fled through a basement door, Kelly said.
It wasn't clear if the suspect was injured; blood was spattered on
the walls and pooled on the floor of Faughey's office. Blood also was
found on the basement door, police said.
