The affidavit also is damning to Mark Sievers, though he has never been charged in the crime.
The evidence also shows that Teresas husband Mark Sievers was involved in the planning and subsequent execution of her murder, according to the section of the affidavit under Establishment of Timeline/Motive.
SUBHEAD
The body of Teresa, 46, was found shortly after 9:30 a.m. on June 29 by Mark Petrites, a physician and friend since 1995.
Mark Sievers called Petrites around 9:30 a.m. and asked him to check on his wife because she did not show for work. Her absence from work was not like her, Sievers said.
Petrites said he was running an errand at the post office and would then check. He knocked on the door of the home at 27034 Jarvis Road in Bonita Springs but there was no answer. He entered through the garage, using a code and keypad Mark Sievers gave him, and found Teresa in the kitchen facedown, "bashed in the back of the head", and obviously dead.
Petrites said he shook Teresa Sievers and felt her back, noting the Estero physician was cold to the touch and beyond help.
Concerned that a possible assailant remained in the home, Petrites, went outside and called 911 at 9:43 for emergency assistance.
Petrites later told detectives he had no idea who could have harmed Teresa Sievers and said he had not noted anything in her lifestyle that would cause concern and described the Sievers marriage as good.
An autopsy by The Lee County Medical Examiners Office said she died from blunt force trauma. The autopsy showed 17 crescent-shaped and irregular indentations on the front, rear and both sides of Teresas head as well as skull fractures, extruded brain fragments and a fracture at the base of her skull.
