San Diego
San Diego police responding for the second time to complaints about a loud party early Wednesday found the body of a woman who apparently had been stabbed to death.
Her 8-year-old son, who was asleep in a nearby bedroom, was not hurt, a police spokesman said.
An autopsy was scheduled for today for Jacqueline Griffin, 26, of the 5700 block of Bates Street, according to the county medical examiner’s office.
Police found about 20 people in Griffin’s apartment at 12:21 a.m. when they initially responded to complaints about a raucous party. She assured police the noise would stop, the spokesman said, but when officers returned to the apartment at 1:24 a.m. after another complaint about noise and glass breaking, they found only Griffin dead in a rear bedroom.
She had been stabbed numerous times, the spokesman said.
