A Las Vegas woman brutally killed her pregnant sister-in-law, stabbing the
young mom repeatedly while moaning so loudly neighbors thought they were
hearing the sounds of kinky sex, police records allege.
Elinor Indico, 30, faces charges of murder and voluntary manslaughter in the
bloody slaying of her brother’s wife, Ashley Indico.
A neighbor told police Ashley’s 5-year-old son came to her door with blood on
his hands.
“My mom is bleeding,” the boy told neighbor Stephanie Vasquez,
Vasquez rushed next door but couldn’t get in. Elinor blocked the door and told
her to “get the (expletive) out of here,” according to a police report reviewed
by Nevada reporters.
Ashley lay dead inside the apartment. An autopsy report showed Ashley was
stabbed at least three times in the neck, once in the bicep and once in the
ankle.
Her unborn child — due in about a week — was also killed. Her 3-year-old
daughter was sitting in the bathroom.
Elinor was treated at University Medical Center for two shallow stab wounds
on her stomach.
Aristeo Indico had let Elinor, his sister, move in with his young family but
reportedly planned to kick her out when she broke his two rules: Get a job
and quit using drugs, the Las Vegas Sun reported.
Neighbors said the tension was building between Elinor and Ashley built as
the move-out deadline loomed.
Elinor reportedly told detectives she was only defending herself, claiming her
sister-in-law went “stab crazy.”
The husband told police he and his sister were trained in martial arts and his
sister owned a Chinese fighting knife, made with blades on both ends.
Investigators found just such a knife next to Ashley’s body.
