That is certainly ambiguous. I read that as "A neighbour said she (i.e. The neighbour) was home, and recalled unusual noises from the apartment downstairs".
Implying that the neighbour lived in the apartment above MH's place.
So the flatmate COULD have been out and come back to find the mess. With the neighbour upstairs being the one who heard the noises.
That quote also says (bearing in mind it was from MSM) that the flatmate discovered the man's unconscious body. So he was well on the way to dying when found. And wouldn't be moaning at that stage.
So if the upstairs lady heard moaning and noises, that may be why the police appear to be suggesting the attack was around 02:30. And that further adds to the puzzle as to why MH didn't try to control the bleeding and call for help over the time between the attack and when he was found around 03:00.
Exactly.
Is it saying that the neighbour was home and heard the noises, or is the neighbour saying that Jean was home and heard noises downstairs?
And that quote is the reworded one! The original was even more confusing.
