I cant find if there was ever a thread on this, but now we know for sure that she wasnt shot

BETHESDA, MD -- A woman was convicted of first degree murder Wednesday for viciously stabbing and hitting her co-worker 331 times at an upscale yoga shop.

The Montgomery County jury deliberated about an hour before returning the verdict against 29-year old Brittany Norwood.

Prosecutors say Norwood killed Jayna Murray, 30, inside the Lululemon Athletica shop in Bethesda on the night of March 11.

She initially told police that 2 masked men had attacked the women inside the store.

She later admitted killing Murray, but said the attack was not premeditated.

Her attorney claimed the two women got into an argument and that Norwood snapped.

But prosecutors say Norwood lured Murray back to the store after closing on the pretense of leaving her wallet behind.

A medical examiner, Mary Ripple, testified that she found at least 331 wounds on Murray's body and that the woman was alive during the duration of the attack.

Prosecutors said Norwood used at least a half-dozen weapons inside the store to kill Murray, including a hammer, wrench, rope, knife and a metal peg used to hold up merchandise.

Norwood faces life in prison


Sweet Jesus at all the stuff she used to kill her

WTF? What was her motive?

[HockeyGirl]

The original mds article said she suspected her of stealing, but it has to be more than that.
331 times to stab someone means she was passionate about something

[deeply shaded]

I'd have to have naps to get through 331 stabs.

A jury on Wednesday night found Brittany Norwood guilty of first-degree murder in the beating death of her co-worker at a Bethesda yoga store.
The jury deliberated about an hour before returning its verdict against Norwood, who could spend the rest of her life in prison for killing 30-year-old Jayna Murray. Norwood will be sentenced Jan. 27 in Montgomery County Circuit Court.
Prosecutors said Norwood, 29, lured Murray to the Lululemon Athletica in Bethesda where both women worked, then brutally beat her to death. Norwood's attorneys admitted Murray was killed in a fight between the two, but said the attack was not premeditated.
"The jurors were all leaning towards first-degree murder from the beginning of the deliberations," juror Donny Knepper said outside the courtoom after the verdict was announced. "They were really persuaded by the number of injuries Murray suffered while she was still alive."
In closing arguments, State's Attorney John McCarthy tried to portray Norwood as a cunning woman who staged a crime scene and posed as a victim. She faked shoe prints and cut herself "to throw the investigation off, away from her," he said. Her lies "terrified this entire community."
The jury of six men and six women considered charges of first- and second-degree murder. To prove the first-degree charge, prosecutors had to show that the killing was willful, deliberate and premeditated.
McCarthy said the killing was planned, telling jurors that there was enough time for the two to have an argument overheard by employees at the adjacent Apple Store, and that Norwood moved around the store during the fight to pick up at least five different weapons.
"There are decisions being made here," he said.

Earlier Wednesday, Dr. Mary Ripple, Maryland's deputy medical examiner, testified that Murray was alive when she suffered the 331 stab wounds, cuts and bruises found on her dead body. The fatal blow was likely a stab wound to the base of her head that chipped a neck bone, went through her skull and into her brain, Ripple said.
"I felt the brutality was indescribable," Phyllis Murray, Jayna's mother, said after the verdict was read.
The prosecution's "trump card," said McCarthy was tapes of her conversations with detectives -- including statements about two masked men beating Murray and sexually assaulting her that turned out be made up.
But defense attorney Douglas Wood argued that Norwood should be convicted of second-degree murder, which carries a maximum penalty of 30 years behind bars.
The lies that Norwood told police show she was "the exact opposite of cunning" and the killing was not premeditated, Wood said in court. "She is clueless, so she spins out this story that makes no sense," he said.
Wood said after the verdict that Norwood had been "remorseful from day one."
Murray's family expressed relief at the verdict. After the jury foreman announced that Norwood was convicted of first-degree murder, a whispered "yes" was heard in the courtroom.

WTF? What was her motive?

Ah, found this:

In a nutshell, victim Jayna Murray discovered that her co-worker nigger Brittany Norwood was stealing from the store where they worked. Murray told her manager who fired nigger Norwood. Nigger Norwood then asked Murray to open the store so she could retrieve her wallet. Nigger Norwood then bashed in Murray's skull and severed her spinal cord before ripping the victims pants to make it look like a sexual assault and tying herself up. when the police arrived nigger Norwood claimed it was intruders.

This happened down the street from my office. My coworkers and I were suspicious of her story from the get-go because the likelihood of two masked men strolling around downtown Bethesda on a Friday night without being spotted seemed very, very low. This town is crammed with restaurants and upscale shops and there are always loads of pedestrians milling around, especially in the area where Lululemon is located. I was relieved that they caught Norwood so quickly, and equally relieved that her guilty verdict was reached so quickly.

Snitches get stitches. Post-mortem anyway.

Yoga store worker guilty of bludgeoning colleague to death with 331 wounds by 6 different weapons - after they fell out over a pair of pants

A woman who killed her co-worker in a Lululemon yoga clothing shop has been convicted of first-degree murder and now faces the prospect of spending the rest of her life behind bars.

Brittany Norwood, 29, used at least half a dozen weapons from inside the store to kill Jayna Murray, 30, in a 'prolonged and brutal attack' on March 11.

These included a hammer, wrench, knife and peg used to hold up a mannequin.

Norwood was yesterday found guilty after a jury in Montgomery County, Maryland, took an hour to reach a verdict.

Norwood attacked Miss Murray inside the Lululemon Athletica shop in Bethesda, Maryland - a Washington, DC suburb - and then staged a robbery.

She used numerous weapons to kill her, then lied and told police that they had been attacked by masked men.

Her defence lawyer conceded that Norwood killed Miss Murray, but said it happened during a fight and wasn't premeditated.

A judge's ruling prevented both sides from discussing the fight, but prosecutors have previously said it began after suspected stolen merchandise was found during a search of Norwood's bag.

The legal argument was aimed at sparing Norwood a first-degree murder conviction, which can carry a sentence of life in prison without parole.

Murray allegedly found a pair of pants in Norwood's purse at the end of the work day, when they did mutual bag checks, as per store policy.

Norwood initially said she'd bought them from another employee, but Murray called the other employee, they denied it, and Murray confront Norwood for stealing.

Miss Murray's family choked back tears as the verdict was read and a 'yes' sounded from their side of the courtroom. Norwood and her family sat impassively and declined to comment afterwards.

Norwood's attorney Doug Wood said she was disappointed at the speed of the verdict.

She said: 'I think that we were surprised that this happened so quick. I thought we had established a pretty good case for second-degree murder.'

Mr Wood said he expects to appeal the verdict and will argue against a life-without-parole sentence that prosecutors are seeking. Sentencing is set for January 27.

State's Attorney John McCarthy told jurors during closing arguments that there was abundant evidence of premeditation.

He said Norwood lured Miss Murray back to the shop after closing by saying she had forgotten her wallet and needed to get back inside.

A medical examiner, Mary Ripple, testified that she found at least 331 wounds on Murray's body and that the woman was alive for the duration of the attack.

Juror Donny Knepper, 36, said the panel was essentially convinced from the start of deliberations. He said he was swayed by the sheer number of wounds.

He said: 'There's no (rational) argument that this was anything other than first-degree murder, and we tried.'

all this over a pair of pants?

[HyperU2]

I'm not sure it's been mentioned but the people next door, at the Apple store, heard the attack and didn't call 911. So there's that.

[deeply shaded]

Stupid, stupid woman. How could anyone believe they were both attacked when one had 331 wounds and the other had, what a few minor injuries? Makes no sense. And Holy huge pool of blood.

[irishkat]

A friend of mine was very close to the deceased. It was a horrible story.
