Are police mishandling the case?“Besides being strikingly beautiful, she was kind and she was good and she cared as much about others as she would about herself,” Carey’s friend, Raul Griffith told WPLG News. “She was a very special person for many people.”According to police reports, Arrudasouza and Carey engaged in an argument in which she said: “she had a better man.” He then rushed to the kitchen, grabbed a knife and fork, and pinned Carey to the floor of their bedroom while he stabbed her multiple times.
The reports also say Arrudasouza said he “deserves the punishment that comes to him.”Ygor Arrudasouza, 27, emigrated to the US from Brazil, and has a history of run-ins.
