Cadedra Cook, an 18-year-old Cedartown woman, and an unnamed 15-year-old boy, were jailed Friday after they allegedly ordered a pizza and then stabbed the delivery driver more than 50 times.
According
to Cedartown Police, Cook and the juvenile reportedly beat and stabbed
27-year-old Elizabeth Hutchenson, a mother of one, while she was
making a pizza delivery at their residence on Thursday around 9:00 p.m.
Cook and the juvenile then fled on foot, leaving the victim bleeding to
death in the doorway.
Officers found Hutchenson while on a routine traffic stop. She was rushed to a Polk Medical Center, where she was pronounced dead. Medical officials stated that she received over 50 stab wounds to her head, chest, and torso. Officers apprehended the suspects the next day in a nearby field.
"We had been one step behind them most of the night," said Cedertown Police Chief Jamie Newsome. "We were finally able to catch up to them.

Investigators
say detectives do not have a motive behind the attack. A small amount
of money was taken from the victim, but not enough to initiate a
murder. Officers are working to determine if it was premeditated.
A Domino's spokesperson stated that drivers are not encouraged to carry more than $20 on them while delivering. They stated that they were horrified by the incident, and their prayers go out to the family of the victim, which includes a 4-year-old girl and a boyfriend.
