GUILTY FL - Sasha Samsudean, 27, raped & murdered, Orlando, 17 Oct 2015

His LinkedIn states he was a pharmaceutical tech in the Armed forces. Could he have drugged her? In any event what a piece of crap. She probably felt safe that he was walking her back to her car. She was with "security". He deserves extra hell for that. So sad.

This brings tears to my eyes. Nobody who opens their heart in trust should ever so deceived. This man is pure evil.

I feel very sad for his wife too. What a nightmare for her.

Anyone else thinking of Jennifer Kesse case with this guy?

I think the guy on the Kesse video was smaller and had darker hair IMO. I think Jennifer was killed/abducted by a construction worker from that condo complex.

I keep searching and can't find any new information on this case- but just today I found this article dated 12/16/15 which says Stephen Duxbury is hiring Casey Anthony's attorney Cheney Mason to defend him!!!

Anyone who knows how to search court records in Florida - the article says he was going to be arraigned in mid-December.

Ok, I did a bit of digging - the next court date is 3/3/16 - all it says is "status 3/3/16" - I don't know exactly what that means... but at least now folks know when to come back to this thread....

Crime scene photos and video of perp with victim (watch the video in this link to see)

I wonder why this case doesn't seem to get much publicity- is it because they caught the guy so soon?

 

[Blondie in Spokane]

I'm surprised there's not more interest in this case as well. This scenario is one of those awful nightmares every woman fears, I think. it frightens me and I can't imagine how terrifying Sasha's last moments were at the hands of this creep who was supposed to protect her.

I agree about it being a worst nightmare situation.

I am glad though that if creeps are going to do things like this, at least they often get caught on video tape these days. In this case, that is good evidence, but his fingerprints in her apartment would probably be enough to get him convicted.

He didn't enter the apt with her? He broke in later and attacked her when she was sleeping, raped and killed her.

With these type of crimes on the raise, young women should trust no one, period.

Both articles listed above talk about how the accused man looked/googled how to over-ride the key pad code. Those don't sound very secure.

This is preplanned. Would the murder be considered premeditated?

The family of a woman raped and strangled to death at a downtown apartment in 2015 filed a lawsuit Monday against the apartment complex and the security company that employed her alleged killer, court records say....

The 102-page lawsuit alleges that the apartment complex and Vital Security, which employed Duxbury, ignored other residents’ complaints calling him “sketchy” and said they felt “harassed” by him.

I've always wondered why this case never got more attention. It seems like it has all the makings of the type that get widespread coverage.

This article goes into more depth about the allegations in the law suit...

“Not long after Duxbury started patrolling the Uptown Place Apartments, residents began to complain about Duxbury and his behavior,” according to the lawsuit."

Haven't been to this thread in a while- glad to see there will be a trial!! Surprised he hasn't done a plea deal yet.

Defense wants statements thrown out in Sasha Samsudean homicide case

http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/breaking-news/os-stephen-duxbury-police-statements-20171024-story.html

Lawyers argue Duxbury, 35, made involuntary statements to police because he feared losing his job as a security guard, the motion filed last week said.

Duxbury’s attorneys also are trying to get a polygraph test and subsequent interview with police tossed, according to the motion. Polygraph tests are often inadmissible as evidence.

The attorneys say Duxbury’s interview with police after the polygraph test is prejudicial because it is inferred he failed it.
