Crime Stories with Nancy Grace

An indictment is expected against 27‑year‑old Sayed Mohassib Brooklyn in the fatal stabbing of jogger. Mohassib has pleaded not guilty to all charges including second‑degree murder, tampering with physical evidence, fourth‑degree criminal possession of a weapon.
Authorities allege Mohassib attacked Katie Suarez while she was jogging. Court documents state he told detectives he carried a knife to the path because he believed “people were going to kill his family.” He denied stabbing anyone but allegedly admitted disposing of bloody clothing and the knife. Surveillance footage reportedly shows him coming outside in his underwear to throw away bloody clothes.
Suarez’s father found her after she failed to meet her parents. She died days later from a neck stab wound
At the time of arrest, Mohassib was working as a teacher’s aide at P.S. 200 in Brooklyn. He had a brief NYPD tenure in 2022, later served in the Marine Corps, was discharged on psychiatric grounds, and had been denied reinstatement to the NYPD.

South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) is investigating Yemassee Police Chief Greg Alexander and another officer for allegedly handling and concealing the murder weapons and bloody clothing from the 2021 killings of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh
According to multiple reports, SLED is looking into whether Alexander and another Yemassee officer removed the shotgun and .300 Blackout rifle used in the murders, along with bloody clothing, and transported them to the police department. The weapons have never been recovered.
Alex Murdaugh’s attorneys have filed a motion asking prosecutors to disclose what they know about the investigation. They cite a tip that Alexander arrived early at the scene, offered the defendant a change of clothes, and that the guns and clothing were brought to the Yemassee police station.
As of now, there are no confirmed findings or charges against the officers.
