Toronto women Po Lin Wan & daughter Alice Mei See slain in Atlantic City

Two Toronto women visiting Atlantic City were stabbed to death Monday in what police believe was a botched attempted robbery.
According to pressofAtlanticCity, police officer Jacob Abbruscato witnessed the unprovoked attack against the Canadian women and drew his weapon in a bid to stop the bloody assault.
The victims, aged 47 and 80, were alive when an ambulance arrived about 10 a.m., but died from their wounds in the afternoon at AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center’s City Campus.
Both women, from Scarborough, had been stabbed several times in the upper body.
Abbruscato ordered the assailant to drop her weapon in the random daylight attack, which she did before being apprehended on Pacific Avenue, near Bally’s Casino.
WPVI TV reported that the accused was trying to take a purse from one of the victims before the fatal knifings.
Antoinette E. Pelzer, 44, of Philadelphia, is charged with aggravated assault, and weapons and robbery offences. ::snipping2::

Woman charged with two Atlantic City slayings had history of mental illness
MAYS LANDING — "I'm just trying to find out where's my public defender at," the Pennsylvania woman arrested in a fatal knife attack on two Canadian tourists told the judge this afternoon during her first appearance on murder and other charges.
Antionette Pelzer, 44, is accused of a brutal attack Thursday morning just a half-block from the city's hospital that killed two women ages 47 and 80. The Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office is still trying to reach the next of kin to determine the women's identities and whether they are related to one another.
They were visiting the city from Scarborough, Ontario, police said. Scanner reports and members of media in Canada have indicated the women are saying the women are from the Asian community.
Atlantic County Prosecutor Ted Housel, who presented the case to the judge himself, asked that the record be sealed and the women be referred to as Jane and Sally Doe until next of kin have been notified. The Canadian consulate is assisting with that, Housel told media outside the courtroom.
Superior Court Judge Michael Donio said he would seal the names for 72 hours, at which time the office will either have released them, or they will have to come back to court for a possible extension.
Charges read in court indicate Pelzer attacked the younger woman with a 12-inch butcher knife and, when the older one intervened, she was stabbed as well. When the younger woman was on the ground, Pelzer tried to remove the purse from the woman's shoulder. When she wouldn't relent, Pelzer stabbed her some more.
During the her court appearance, Pelzer indicated she wanted a public defender. Defendants in Atlantic County typically do not have representation at a first appearance, but will indicate whether they can afford to hire an attorney or will need to apply for a public defender. A form has to be filled out, although Pelzer didn't know if she had done that.
She also seemed surprised that both women had died: "Both?" she asked, shocked.
Police have indicated Pelzer had mental problems and had been under care in Pennsylvania, where she's from. It was unclear how long she had been in Atlantic City.
"She's not from here or had anything to do with any of our social services," said Office William Wenz, who works with the city's homeless. ::snipping2::

Canadian mother and daughter from Toronto ID’d as victims of fatal Atlantic City, NJ stabbings

Antionette Pelzer reacts to Judge Michael Donio reading of the charges during her arraignment in Superior Court in Mays Landing, N. J., Tuesday, May, 22, 2012. Pelzer is accused of stabbing two Canadian women, ages 80 and 47, on Monday morning, May 21, as they were walking in an area where most of the city’s casinos have their entranceways and parking garages.
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — Authorities investigating the stabbing deaths of two Canadian tourists during a mugging said Wednesday that the victims were a 47-year-old woman and her 80-year-old mother, who tried to aid her.
Po Lin Wan and her daughter Alice Mei See Leung, both from the Scarborough section of Toronto, were killed by a Philadelphia woman across the street from Bally’s Atlantic City, the Atlantic County prosecutor’s office said.
The office also corrected a chronology of the attack it initially released Tuesday night.
It said Wednesday that the younger woman was being stabbed numerous times in her upper body with a 12-inch butcher knife when her mother came to her aid and also was stabbed.
Autopsy results determined that Po Lin Wan bled to death, while her daughter died from being stabbed in the heart. A prosecutor’s office news release Tuesday night had reversed their causes of death.
Authorities said the suspect, Antoinette Pelzer, was trying to steal a pocketbook from one of the women.
Pelzer is charged with murder and was being held on $1.5 million bail. Her aunt says Pelzer has been homeless and mentally ill for years.

Pelzer had been living in an Ohio shelter until December, when her mother brought her back to Philadelphia, said Pelzer’s aunt Nadine King, also of Philadelphia.

Aunt: Suspect in NJ tourist killings mentally ill
May 22, 2012
ASSOCIATED PRESS
The scene of fatal stabbings that occurred earlier in the day is seen in Atlantic City Monday, May 21, 2012 along Pacific Avenue between Michigan and Ohio Avenues.
::snipping2::
A police officer on patrol intervened when he spotted the attack, subduing Pelzer at gunpoint. The two women died at a hospital a half-block from the scene.
Pelzer had been living in an Ohio shelter until December, when her mother brought her back to Philadelphia, said Pelzer's aunt Nadine King, also of Philadelphia.
Pelzer has long suffered from schizophrenia and had been homeless since January, said King, who said she had seen her niece out "begging for money."
::snipping2::
King said her niece, a mother of three, did not have a criminal record. She blamed her mental illness for what happened.
Gladys Pelzer, the defendant's mother, told WPVI-TV in Philadelphia that the stabbings apparently occurred while her daughter was trying to get money to buy cigarettes.
"I feel sorry about the people she hurt all because she wanted a cigarette. That's what this was all about," she told the TV station.
