Officially, Rebecca Zahau died at her own hand.
Investigators who first looked around the Coronado mansion where she reportedly was found hanging — naked, gagged and bound hand and foot — suspected they had a homicide on their hands.
But after a seven-week investigation, Sheriff Bill Gore held a news conference to announce that evidence and autopsy results led to the conclusion that Zahau's death on July 13, 2011, was a suicide.
Zahau's mother and sister have refused to believe that the 32-year-old surgical technician with a strong Christian faith killed herself. This week, trial is to start in San Diego County Superior Court in the family's wrongful death lawsuit.
Their suspicions have fallen on the only other person known to be at the home at the time: Adam Shacknai, brother of Zahau's boyfriend, Arizona pharmaceuticals tycoon Jonah Shacknai.
Adam Shacknai called 911 to report having found Zahau hanging. He said he cut the rope to lay her on the ground before Coronado police and medics got there. With no criminal charges pending against anyone, Zahau's family initially filed a wrongful death lawsuit in 2013 against Adam Shacknai; Jonah Shacknai's ex-wife, Dina Shacknai and her sister, Nina Romero. It was alleged that the three had attacked, strangled and hanged Zahau.
The sisters were dropped from the suit when evidence revealed they were not present...
The suggested motive for the alleged assault was that Zahau was the adult in charge at the mansion when Jonah Shacknai's 6-year-old son, Max, took a fatal fall from a second-story stair landing two days earlier, on July 11. His death was ruled an accident.

One of the most inexplicable features in the evidence was a phrase scrawled on the bedroom door in black paint: "She saved him can he save her."

It happened at the Spreckles Mansion in Coronado, CA. You should see the pictures of that beautiful old beach front mansion next to the Hotel Del Coronado. Now it is a beautiful old beach front haunted house.
The pharma exec’s kid was thrown over the balcony and then two days later his lady friend was found hanging bound and gagged. There is something going on with that brother and the pharma exec is probably going to go the same way after the rest of the heirs are taken care of.
Sheriff Bill Gore…

As I recall, they killed her dog first, and then her.
Either an outright kidnapping/murder, or a kinky time gone bad.
The dead woman then apparently got up, got the nail file and stored it neatly back in her purse that was in the car.
I didn't buy that one either.
“It’s like shooting yourself in the head, twice.”
A lot of Hillary Clinton’s friends and acquaintances have managed to do this.
Nope. The gun was found with his thumb through the trigger guard.
Just no way to tell. She’s oriental which is already inscrutable. She’s in California. And the family is very wealthy.
Three kinds of crazy going on there.
“This always seemed like murder and retribution for the apparent accidental death of the kid. “
Just as likely to be a reason for suicide. And asians do suicide in odd ways.
That Broward county sheriff sure gets around.
BINGO!
My thought exactly.
Not stupid. Corrupt.
SDPD are notoriously corrupt, likely means the DA is also.

As to the first question, haven’t thought about it enough yet.
As to the second question, “Gloves?”
Now it is a beautiful old beach front haunted house
