Woman beaten to death in biting attack

An autopsy shows that a woman who police say was killed randomly with her husband by a 19-year-old Florida State University student was beaten to death.

Martin County sheriff’s spokeswoman Trisha Kukuvka released the results of 53-year-old Michelle Mishcon’s autopsy Wednesday. Sheriff William Snyder said earlier that Mishcon’s 59-year-old husband, John Stevens, died of multiple stab wounds and blunt force trauma.

Mishcon had also been stabbed, but the autopsy showed those wounds were not fatal. She died of blunt force trauma.

Kukuvka said accused attacker Austin Harrouff remains in stable condition but has been unable to speak because of a breathing tube.

Harrouff is accused of killing the couple outside their Tequesta home Monday night.
