"Police say evidence indicates the killer left Feldman's home around 1 a.m. [Wednesday, after speaking to her father on Tuesday evening], meaning he would have been unaccounted for late Tuesday evening until early Wednesday morning.
Police say he may have suffered minor cuts or injuries to his hands or arms when Feldman tried to fight him off.
Investigators believe he stole only a few items from the home, including Feldman's Apple iPhone 6, credit cards, and possibly a Tiffany bracelet and other jewelry."

"...authorities don’t know who did it, they’re assuring members of the community that her murder was an “isolated incident.”
"... there were no signs of forced entry in the home of Allison Feldman, which is usually an indicator that the killer was someone she’d either known and trusted or had been acquainted with in some way."

Remembering Allison Feldman
February 24, 2015
"She poked around on JDate, and at the time of her death had been seeing a Jewish guy for about eight months.
It was the first time she found someone she could relate to, her father said. “He’s Jewish, and tall, and they had bonded. They were very, very close. And we found out from him that he was going to propose to her in Israel in July, when he was over there for a family bar mitzvah.”
"Family was the most important thing to Allison. She talked with her parents almost daily, and she texted with her mom and sister all the time. The family knew something was wrong when she hadn’t returned calls and texts after a mere couple of hours. “She’s in medical sales,” sister Kelly said. “Her phone is her life, it’s never off. I mean, she loves her phone.”

There is a Tiffany's within a 20-25 minute drive from Minnetonka at the Galleria.

There is also a Tiffany and Co. in Tucson, where she graduated from college, and one located in Scottsdale, where she was currently living. Just wondering if the bracelet was a gift or if she purchased it for herself. Since it is the classic Tiffany's heart charm bracelet, I lean to it being a gift.
If the killer had injuries to his hands and arms, that indicates death by strangulation, jmho.
Did Allison have a clue that her boyfriend was going to ask for her hand in marriage during the month of July in Israel? If so, I don't think she was seeing or dating any other guys. Since the boyfriend has been cleared, I presume the PD obtained his DNA sample.
