Mr. Said is charged with second-degree murder for killing Kara Abruscato, a 40-year-old woman who lived in Fairfax, on the 30th of last month. Ms. Abruscato was shocked when she was found dead with injuries to her upper body in her tent at her camping site around 3:09 p.m., in broad daylight on the 30th of last month.
