4/04/06

By: Aishah Schwartz

Hard hitting, no holds barred prime-time crime fighting advocate, Nancy Grace, resurrected December 17, 2004's unsolved cold case murder of Iman Muhanna Mohammed this past Friday night on CNN.

It was 15 months ago that Iman Muhanna, 42, and 6-months pregnant, was found dead in the bedroom of her Metairie, Louisiana home. She had been viciously stabbed 33 times.

The couple's unborn daughter did not survive the attack, turning the case into a double homicide.

First to arrive at the gruesome scene was Fakhri Mohammed, 45, the victim's husband, returning home after dropping the couple's two children off at school.
