Glamorous Florida hairstylist is knifed to death inside her luxe parking garage by 280lb assailant
A Florida hairstylist was stabbed to death with a steak knife by a 280-pound assailant during a violent attack inside the parking garage of a luxury apartment complex. Hailey Hosford, 27, had just stepped out of a rental car at the Retreat at Sawgrass Village in Sunrise on Wednesday when a man reportedly charged the vehicle, ripped open the door, and fatally stabbed her - also injuring her male friend in the process, as reported by The New York Post. The suspect, 21-year-old Jackson Julian Sagesse, was subsequently arrested and booked into Broward County Jail on charges of murder and attempted murder. 'I just killed someone and walked away,' he bragged to cops after his Miranda rights were read, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by The Post. Just after 1.30am on Wednesday, Hosford and an unidentified male friend arrived at the parking garage at 3000 Northwest 130th avenue in a rented black Mercedes, WPLG News reported. The 27-year-old Ford Lauderdale-based hairstylist remained in the car for a few minutes while her friend briefly went inside, planning to continue their drive shortly after. 'He was going in there to grab some stuff, and then he was gonna take her home,' Aubrey Rosebrock, Hosford's friend, told WSVN News. As she waited for her friend's return, surveillance footage from inside the garage allegedly captured Sagesse approaching the vehicle, holding a metal object that was 'reflecting light' in his hand. Unaware of the danger, Hosford began to step out of the car - only to suddenly realize that Sagesse was approaching the driver's side. In a panic, she allegedly tried to climb back into the car to shield herself from what is being described as a random attack, according to an arrest report obtained by WSVN. 'She noticed he was charging her, and he forced himself into the car before she had time to shut the door,' Rosebrock told the outlet. Within seconds, a violent struggle erupted between the two, and police said security footage captured the suspect making repeated stabbing motions into the vehicle, The Post reported. Hosford's friend returned from the apartment just moments later and confronted Sagesse, who then got out of the car. The two men quickly became entangled in a violent confrontation, resulting in the 21-year-old suspect reportedly stabbing the man in his throat. Miraculously, the wounded friend survived the unprovoked attack and managed to escape, quickly calling police for help as soon as he was able. Sagesse then allegedly returned to the vehicle and tried to flee the scene in the rental car, but was unable to get it moving, according to The Post. Hosford remained in the car for a few minutes while her friend briefly went inside the apartment, but as she waited for her friend's return, footage from inside the garage allegedly captured Sagesse approaching the vehicle with a metal object that was 'reflecting light' in his hand Security footage also captured the suspect searching the area - seemingly looking for any evidence left behind - before eventually leaving the garage. Before police arrived, a resident of the complex reported seeing 'someone dead' lying on the ground in the parking garage, NBC Miami reported. When officers arrived shortly afterward, they found Hosford unresponsive inside the car, suffering from multiple stab wounds to her neck and throat, according to The Post. Tragically, she was pronounced dead at 2.01am. Her friend was taken to the hospital for treatment. 'I know she was a fighter - I believe she fought, and I believe she was scared,' Rosebrock told WSVN. 'She was a force to be reckoned with, she really was,' he added. Employees of the apartment building identified Sagesse from the security footage and provided police with the unit number of the home he shared with his mother at the complex, as reported by The Post. When authorities arrived at his home, Sagesse was found still wearing the same clothes seen in the security footage. Employees of the apartment building identified Sagesse from the security footage and provided police with the unit number of the home he shared with his mother at the complex Inside the home, detectives found smeared blood on the back door and discovered that two kitchen knives - matching the description of the murder weapon - were missing. He was arrested by police and, as his Miranda rights were read, allegedly boasted about 'just walking away' after killing someone. Though Sagesse's statements to police were reportedly inconsistent, he claimed that he was on his way to the gym when he noticed the Mercedes rental in the garage with its lights still on. He allegedly told law enforcement that he tried to call 911 about the suspicious vehicle but didn't have his phone, so he instead returned to the apartment, grabbed a knife and said he intended to use it for 'personal protection', The Post reported. In other words, Sagesse claimed that he was 'murdering for self-defense', but failed to specify any clear threat that justified his actions. He was charged with premeditated murder and attempted first-degree murder, and was booked into the Broward County Jail, where he remains held without bail. Rosebruck recalled the final words his best friend spoke to him before she was senselessly taken from this world at the hands of a stranger, according to WSVN. In the heartbreaking message, Hosford wrote: 'I just wanted to tell you that the sun is shining, the sky is blue, the water is turquoise, and that I love you much, and that you mean the world to me', as reported by the outlet. 'She's not a Jane Doe, and I want the world to know what her name is and who she was,' Rosebruck said. 'There's evil, and there's good, and we lost the good,' he added. 'The good lost.' Rosebruck said that when funeral arrangements are made, friends will be coming from all around the world to pay their respects. Family members described Hosford as an expert stylist and an entrepreneur. The 27-year-old businesswoman was the owner of a beauty salon in Fort Lauderdale and also served as a teacher and ambassador for a yoga and retreat company, The Post reported. 'Our family is destroyed. This is beyond horrific,' Rich Ehmke, Hosford's stepfather, said in a statement, as reported by NBC Miami. 'We wish this upon no family to deal with something like this,' he added. 'It's really incomprehensible based on all the facts and the situation is senseless.'

Woman killed, man injured in double stabbing at Broward apartment complex: cops
Two people were attacked in a parking garage by a knife-wielding resident of a Broward apartment complex early Wednesday, leaving a woman dead and a man injured, according to police. Around 1:50 a.m., Sunrise Police responded to a 911 call made at The Retreat at Sawgrass Village apartments on 3000 NW 130th Terrace, where they found the injured man outside the garage. Despite being stabbed in the throat, he was alert and able to tell them what happened. He told officers that another man, identified Thursday as 21-year-old Jackson Sagesse, ran off after stabbing he and his friend in a black Mercedes Benz that they had just parked in a garage moments earlier. Officers subsequently found the woman inside the Mercedes, lying in the back seat with multiple stab wounds to her neck. They found her dead minutes later. A steak knife, believed to be from a kitchen set, was found on the car's front passenger seat. Security camera footage helped investigators piece together what happened. The video shows the Mercedes arriving and parking in a restricted spot near a handicap space. The driver then gets out of the car and exits the cameras view. A short time later, Sagesse appears on camera entering the garage, holding what resembled a metallic object. The woman could be seen stepping out of the car, but swiftly tried to hop back inside when she noticed Segasse approaching. Before she could close the car door, Sagesse pried it open and stabbed her repeatedly, according to police. About a minute later, police say the video showed Sagesse stopped his attack and closed the car door. The driver, who had briefly stepped away, walked back into the camera frame and could be seen confronting Sagesse. A struggle ensued, during which Sagesse stabbed the man in the throat,according to police. Somehow, he managed to escape and call for help. Sagesse tried to drive off in the Mercedes, but failed to get the car in reverse. He resorted to fleeing on foot, heading toward a building within the same apartment complex at 3004 NW 130th Terrace, where he lives with his mother. An employee at the apartment complex recognized Sagesse and told officers he lived in unit 153. Police found him there and took him into custody. He was wearing the same clothes seen in the surveillance footage. Another steak knife was found in his pocket, similar to the one in the car. A search of his apartment revealed blood on a sliding door and a kitchen knife block missing two steak knives — matching the ones investigators recovered. Sagesse was questioned by detectives, but according to the redacted arrest report, his answers were vague and inconsistent. Police have not confirmed whether he knew the victims. Sagesse is charged with first-degree murder and attempted murder. He is being held without bond at the Broward Main Jail.
