Upon arrival, the deputy located a female victim inside the residence who had been stabbed to death.
A witness on scene explained to the deputy that they witnessed the suspect, Sean Little, on top of the victim with a knife in his hand.

Little fled the scene, but was later apprehended and arrested.
Little pled guilty to second degree murder, and was sentenced to 21 years in prison.
