“Much to his horror, discovered that it was not,” Goochland County Sheriff Jim Agnew told reporters at a news conference Friday. It was an absolutely grisly mauling,” Agnew told reporters. “It appears she was taken to the ground, lost consciousness and the dogs mauled her to death,” Agnew told reporters. She suggested that something may have happened to Stephens after walking the dogs, and the dogs then forced themselves out to help her. Asked about Norris’s comments Saturday, Agnew said the evidence found at the scene, including the defensive wounds, clearly showed that the dogs were responsible for Stephens’s death.
