   A 29-year-old woman who was killed while hiking on a Phoenix trail last   
   week was stabbed 15 times, according to court documents.   
      
   Lauren Heike was found dead in a desert area around 10:30 a.m. local time   
   Saturday -- about 24 hours after the attack is believed to have occurred,   
   according to Phoenix police.   
      
   A 22-year-old suspect, Zion William Teasley, has been arrested and charged   
   with first-degree murder. His bond was set at $1 million during a court   
   appearance Friday.   
      
   Teasley had recently been terminated from his job for "being aggressive   
   toward female employees," according to the probable cause document.   
   Management at that job told investigators that he often carried a   
   pocketknife, which would have been consistent with the murder weapon,   
   according to the document.   
      
   Phoenix police were on their way to a person-down call on the hiking trail   
   on Saturday when they also got a call from Heike's friend saying she did   
   not show up for work that day and that it was unusual, according to the   
   probable cause document.   
      
   Investigators determined there was blood and personal items at the crime   
   scene showing her path of travel, and they believed she was chased through   
   or over a barbed wire fence, according to the document. A medical examiner   
   determined she had 15 stab wounds on her upper body, and there were   
   defensive wounds on her hands and forearms, the document stated.   
      
   "I believe Lauren fought off her attacker and was able to flee, but her   
   injuries were just too severe," Phoenix police Lt. James Hester told   
   reporters during a press briefing Friday afternoon.   
      
   Hester said he believes at this time that the attack was random, but added   
   that police "have not concluded our investigation into that."   
      
   A murder weapon has not been recovered, according to Hester.   
      
   A photograph and tattoo description given by her family were used to   
   identify the body as Heike, court documents said.   
      
   Police had released surveillance footage depicting a suspect running near   
   the crime scene prior to Teasley's arrest Thursday evening. He is the same   
   person who was seen in a video clip running away from the scene, Sgt.   
   Maria Soliz said during a press conference.   
      
   Teasley is already on probation; he had been convicted of robbery, armed   
   robbery and disorderly conduct in another case and was released from   
   prison in November, prosecutors said.   
      
   DNA from Heike's shoe at the crime scene was preliminarily matched to   
   Teasley, according to the probable cause document. A search warrant for   
   cell carrier data showed him in the area at the time of the murder, and   
   the suspect captured in the surveillance footage was wearing clothing   
   Teasley had stolen from his previous employer, according to the document.   
      
   In a police interview, Zion said he was in the area walking to a movie   
   theater and that he knew Heike was attacked from the news but could not   
   recall if he ever met her in person, the probable cause document stated.   
   He reportedly told police, "I am definitely not the person who plans to   
   kill another person," and, "If I was going to do something like that it   
   wouldn't be premeditated," according to the document.   
      
   A motive is unclear, Hester said.   
      
   During a court appearance earlier Friday, the judge advised Teasley that   
   this could be a capital murder case and that he has the right to remain   
   silent. When asked if he understood that right, Teasley responded, "Yes,   
   ma'am, I choose to use that right."   
      
   Prosecutors argued they were concerned Teasley was a flight risk because   
   he had scheduled a flight to Detroit scheduled the previous day.   
      
   The judge set the bond at $1 million because she said she was concerned   
   that Teasley could pose a flight risk and it was unclear if this was a   
   targeted or random attack. The judge also ordered to hold Teasley without   
   bail in his probation case.   
      
   Teasley is next scheduled to appear in court on May 11 for a status   
   conference. A preliminary hearing has been scheduled for May 15.   
      
   Police thanked the victim's family on Friday for speaking out amid the   
   search for a suspect.   
      
   "It resulted in numerous tips that we wouldn't have gotten without their
