Deborah Kincy has been charged with first-degree murder for killing her neighbor, Charlotte Nicholas. According to the Broward Sheriff’s Office, she had been stabbed more than 70 times with what investigators believe is a knife and a screwdriver.

On October. 21, Kincy told a reporter: “I walked towards the kitchen cause she said something about doing a few dishes earlier. And the body was laying there on the kitchen floor”.

Carter’s news release says, “Kincy admitted to investigators that she argued and had a physical struggle with the victim”.

Detectives say evidence shows Kincy had been harassing Nicholas for more than a week about jewelry she may have stolen.

‘How can you be so cold? Marleen Schiessl, a friend of Nicholas, said.

Authorities said Kincy harassed the victim before her death.

Broward Sheriff’s Office Homicide Detectives revealed texts between the two women. Another text message Nicholas sent to Kincy reportedly read: “Stop”. What do you want?

Nicholas’ loved ones said they were heartbroken over her death, WSVN reported. She said Charlotte graduated from Cony High School and was a nurse for several decades. “Charlotte was fiercely independent, ‘ her sister, Mary Nicholas, said”.

She is accused of killing Charlotte Nicholas, 64, stabbing her multiple times in the head, neck and torso.

‘We watched TV in the morning, we’d have coffee, we’d have beers and smoke cigarettes, ‘ Kincy said, according to the Sun-Sentinel.

“Charlotte was way too generous … and trusted everybody. Just a tragedy that her life ended this way”, she said.
