Everett and State Police are trying to solve the early morning murder of a young woman, after she returned home from work at a strip club.
"This investigation narrows as we speak and we fully expect this to be a successful homicide investigation," says Middlesex County District Attorney Gerry Leone.
The D.A. says ambulances and police were sent to 154 Main St. in Everett about 4:30 this morning after the superintendent of an apartment building, in which 26-year-old Sheila Santos lived alone, found her on the back steps with obvious wounds. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Leone says she had left work at Alex's in Stoughton about 1:15a.m. and went straight home.
"When she got home, we know the attack occurred sometime between 1:30 and 2:30am. We are asking the public's help about anything they might have heard or seen," says Leone.
He would not comment on possible motive or the nature of Santos's wounds but neighbors say police told them she was stabbed.
There was no comment this afternoon from Alex's. The D.A. and friends of Santos say she had two sisters who live in the Boston area and relatives in Brazil.
"We don't know of anybody who could have done anything like this. It came as a shock. No problems, as far as we know. No disputes with anybody," says Allan Souza, a recent friend.
