This story makes me sad

Pregnant Russell County woman fought her attacker before being slain, coroner says

She was out on a run with her sister, felt like she couldn't finish, and headed back to their car. On the way, a man attacked and robbed her, strangling her and leaving her body under a bush. According to the autopsy, she was 10-11 weeks pregnant (she had three other children whom she leaves behind, along with her husband). The alleged assailant walked into the local hospital with injuries consistent with her fighting back, and has confessed to the crime, which was apparently random. So sad, and it just underscores that you're never really safe anywhere, although of course you can't live your life afraid of what could happen.
