OAKLAND PARK, Fla. – A South Florida woman accused of stabbing her neighbor to death arrived later at a pawn shop in blood-stained clothing, deputies said.
Debra Kincy, 63, came to the pawn shop to sell rings that belonged to her neighbor, Charlotte Nicholas, who was stabbed more than 70 times, Broward Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Gina Carter said.

After selling the rings Oct. 20, Kincy called 911 to report Nicholas' death, Carter said.
"I went in and said, 'Charlotte, Charlotte,' and I didn't hear anything, and I walked toward her kitchen because she was doing some dishes there earlier and her body was there on the kitchen floor," Kincy said the day she reported the stabbing, according to an arrest report.
Carter said Kincy had been verbally and physically harassing Nicholas. Carter said the discord between them centered, at least partly, on some jewelry that Kincy had stolen from her.
Eventually, Kincy confessed to having an argument with Nicholas that turned physical and ended in the kitchen, where the body was found, the report said.
Kincy was arrested Saturday. She faces charges of murder, false ownership and dealing in stolen property.
