Murder defendant stabbed California mother and daughter to end their screams, detective testifies
"Jacob Allen Wright removed his shoes to avoid making any noise as he slipped through an open sliding glass door and tiptoed up the stairs of a Rancho Cucamonga home in the dead of night on March 7, 2021, carrying a knife with a serrated edge and a black handle with grooves for fingers. Wright was feeling empty and lonely that night, according to testimony by San Bernardino County sheriff's Detective Malcolm Page at the preliminary hearing in Wright's double-murder trial on Wednesday, Jan. 28."
"Wright saw Zhu and hid behind the open door, Page testified. Zhu, who was 38 at the time of the attack, said a man then grabbed her with his left hand and stabbed her in the left shoulder and head. I thought I was dying, Zhu testified, crying. I can hear my blood is draining out and streaming on the floor like a river."
Jacob Allen Wright removed his shoes, slipped through an open sliding glass door and tiptoed up the stairs of a Rancho Cucamonga home on March 7, 2021, carrying a serrated knife with a black grooved handle. Wright left his home about 2 a.m., walked roughly three miles to a cul-de-sac on Bergano Place, and, wearing a cloth COVID mask, bypassed two closed bedrooms to enter an open bedroom where Jia Jia, 44, and her 8-year-old daughter Ruby Meng slept. Screams from the bedroom unnerved Wright, who stabbed the screaming occupants. A houseguest in an adjacent room was also attacked, sustaining stab wounds and calling 911 as the attacker fled.
