Background
NZ Herald story here
The 77-year-old pensioner was stabbed about 25 times in the subsequent attack. The knife pierced her heart and skull. A number of wounds to her arms and hands showed she had attempted to fight off her attacker. The offender then stole $50 and a set of car keys from Mrs Reed's handbag, and fled in her Rover car. The killing of Mrs Reed was so brutal it attracted the attention of the FBI.
