Her public defender declined Tuesday to comment, saying he hasn’t spoken to his client, The Associated Press reported.
Vanatter called 911, saying someone in her home was bleeding, according to police. She told investigators she stabbed her boyfriend in the back and shoulder after he hit her, according to a probable-cause statement, the wire service reported.
Officers discovered a heart drawn in blood on the home’s living room wall and the words “I’m sorry” scrawled on a kitchen counter, the document said.
Vanatter said she often cut herself to drink her blood and believed she “could become a serial killer,” investigator Scott Hill wrote in the statement.
