FORT WORTH (AP) — The 18-year-old

tabbed has confessed to the attack and has
leen arrested on a capital murder charge, shift-
ng the focus of the investigation from her
other, police say.
Amy Ivy was being held Sunday in Tarrant
ounty Jail in lieu of $300,000 bail. Investigators
aid they don’t have a motive in the stabbings.
Shauntraniece Ivy’s throat was slit and she
stabbed in the back several times while she
pt early Monday morning in the home she
hared with her mother, grandmother and oth
er family, police said.
The grandmother, 38-year-old Jessie May
vy, was also stabbed in the attack. She spent
unday in a Fort Worth hospital recovering
om surgery for stab wounds to her head, neck
nd upper chest.

The younger Ms. Ivy, whose name is spelled
Ivey in some documents, was arrested Friday
night after questioning by homicide detectives,
who said they had learned new information
from her mother.
Homicide Sgt. Paul Kratz said Amy admitted
that she, not her mother, killed the girl.
Amy Ivy’s “statements alludes to her wanting
to spare her child the life (she) had led,” Kratz
said. “It’s very hard to come up with an explana
tion for something that defies regular thoughts.
“How in the world do you come up with the
explanation for killing a 4-year-old?.”
According to Amy Ivy’s initial story, which
police now say is untrue, she awoke around
6:30 a.m. because she heard a commotion,
went to her daughter’s room and found her
stabbed to death. The teen-ager also said she
saw her mother in the bathroom cleaning a
bloody knife, which led to a struggle in which
she stabbed her mother.
Jessie Ivy is unable to speak but has written
police notes about the incident. The first note
said, “My daughter Amy tried to kill me in sleep,”
according to an arrest warrant.
The grandmother’s second note recounted
how she awoke to someone stabbing her in the
neck and then fought with the attacker.
The note said Amy Ivy stuck her fingers into
the hole in Jessie’s Ivy neck and said, ‘Die, die.”
Homicide officials who had put the grand
mother under police guard had said last week
they were planning to charge her with murder
once her condition improved. They had said
nothing pointed to anyone other than the
grandmother.
Amy Ivy also lias a 1-year-old daughter and
is pregnant.

Federal official says traffic deaths preventable
DALLAS (AP) — More than 53
percent of all traffic deaths in Texas
last year were alcohol-related, well
above the national average and
more than many states with compa
rable populations, statistics show.
There were 3,741 traffic deaths in
the state in 1996 and 1,991 of them
were considered alcohol-related, ac
cording to the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration.
“These are incidents which we
could do something about,” said
Gary Taylor, senior regional program
manager for the federal agency.
Texas’ 53.2 percent is a 3-per-
cent improvement from the previ
ous year. However, it is still far
worse than the national average of
40.9 percent.
“Even though we had a per
centage decrease in Texas, we still
had more crosses in the cemeter
ies,” Taylor said.
In raw numbers, Texas had
more alcohol-related traffic
deaths than other states with
large populations. California had
1,606 such deaths, Florida 1,015
and New York 523.
Taylor’s agency considers a
traffic death as alcohol-related
when evidence shows that either
a driver or a nonpassenger, such
as a pedestrian or cyclist, had a
blood alcohol content of 0.01 or
greater. A blood alcohol content
of 0.10 percent is considered
legally intoxicated.
Harris County led Texas with
252 such deaths. There were 151 in
Dallas County. Tarrant County’s to
tal of 78 represents 60.5 percent of
its 129 traffic deaths.
F.A.C.T. (First-time Aggie Contact Tearn),
is a program where faculty, staff, & student leaders try to contact new Aggies
to welcome them to the University and ask how they are doing at A&M.
F.A.C.T. will be conducted September 29- October 16, Mondays through
Thursdays only from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM.
Please volunteer your time and energy to help our new Aggies feel at home.
