Trans baby-faced killer confesses to ANOTHER murder with a chainsaw as she pleads guilty to slaying NYC antiques dealer with decorative plate and knife
2024-09-10
It doesn’t get much lewder than this. The only thing missing is a shoot-‘em-up with the cops. Note the miscreant’s changing pronouns throughout the article — someone is having fun with it.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A property manager from Oklahoma who began transitioning in prison had previously decapitated a friend in his home state it emerged today as he admitted the murder of a New York antiques dealer.

Alex Ray Scott, 28, fled the Sooner State in 2019 to escape allegations she molested a five-year-old, but not before dismembering Robin Skocdopole, 63, with a chainsaw. The revelations emerged as she appeared heavily made-up at Manhattan Supreme Court on Monday to admit killing Kenneth Savinski, 64, with a decorative plate, kitchen knife and 'maybe a pen' in January 2020.

'Scott agreed to take the FBI to the last known location of Skocdopole's head,' the Department of Justice said in a release.

'Unfortunately, when Scott took FBI to the location, no additional remains were found.'

Scott came to the authority's attention in January 2020 when she walked into a Manhattan police station covered in blood, and told officers: 'I think I may have killed someone last night.'

By then police had already found the body of the elegant antiques dealer in his Upper East Side apartment on 83rd Street near Park Avenue. Savinsky who met Scott on a dating site, was found with his throat cut and deep gashes to his head in the blood-spattered apartment.

Scott had been seen walking out of the apartment building, wearing Savinski's black jacket and counting money with noticeable hand injuries. Scott then allegedly used Savinski's credit cards to pay for a hotel room in New Jersey, where the killer woke up the next day, covered in blood and apparently with little memory of what had happened the night before.

Savinski's was one of five credit cards found on Scott, and investigators began tracing the owners of the others, one of whom was Skocdopole.

Scott told interviewers that she had lived at Skocpodole's single-story home in Broken Arrow, but no-one picked up the phone there to investigators.

The Broken Arrow Police Department was dispatched to the address with a search warrant in February 2020 and found the house empty of all possessions but splattered with blood. Three months later some of Skocpodole's dismembered remains were found in a nearby creek with a medical examiner concluding that both a chainsaw and a manual saw had been used to cut them up.

By then Scott was awaiting trial for Savinski's murder at a Rikers Island detention center reserved for female adults and adolescents after she began transitioning while in custody.

But it was May 2023 before Scott admitted to Skocpodole's murder and agreed to take part in a fruitless search for the 63-year-old's missing head.

The FBI was leading the investigation into Skocpodole's death because it took place on one of Oklahoma's native American reservations. They discovered that Scott, herself a member of the Cherokee Nation, had been fitted with an ankle monitor in July 2019 as she awaited trial for forcing a co-worker's five-year-old son to engage in oral sex.

She was renting a room in Skocdopole's home at the time and told friends that her landlord had moved to Dallas for work when Skocdopole vanished in August. Investigators later spoke to friends to reported receiving 'vague and oddly worded' emails from Skocpodole explaining his disappearance which Scott later admitted writing.

And data from Scott's ankle monitor data and bank history confirmed that she had purchased and then returned a chainsaw at a local Walmart, while further analysis of the tag led them to where the killer had disposed of some body parts.

In October she fled to Long Island where she was arrested for fleeing the child sex charges and told police he had gone there to kill herself.

Unaware at that point of Skocdopole's disappearance they took Scott to a psychiatric hospital for observation and later back to Tulsa to be charged with two counts of lewd molestation.

She had worked for a property management firm in Tulsa and in 2017 was pictured at a fashion show event in support of the Children's Abuse Network of Tulsa which raised $30,000.

But she was back in New York by Christmas 2019, staying on friends' sofas and arranging hook-ups on dating sites, the last of which was with Savinski.

In May of this year she was sentenced to 45 years by a US District judge for the Second Degree Murder in Indian Country of Skocpodole.

Details emerged today as she admitted his guilt to the second-degree murder of Savinski.

She is expected to serve at least 22 years in prison as part of a plea deal with the New York court but will be returned on release to Oklahoma to serve out her sentence there.
