   Detectives investigating the death of a Washington state woman whose body   
   was found buried under a shed discovered a letter at the suspect’s home   
   that described a planned burglary and sexual assault, the Thurston County   
   sheriff said Monday.   
      
   The injuries that killed Marcia Norman, 82, included trauma from a   
   pneumatic nailer, Thurston County Coroner Gary Warnock said.   
      
   “Her onset from injury to death was not instant. It was hours,” Warnock   
   said. He said the case was the worst he has seen in his career.   
      
   Jeffrey Zizz, 47, a handyman who worked for Norman, was booked Sunday on   
   charges of murder, kidnapping and unlawful disposal of human remains. He   
   is expected to be formally charged by Wednesday, Thurston County   
   Prosecuting Attorney Jon Tunheim.   
      
   Zizz had a preliminary court appearance Monday and has not yet entered a   
   plea.   
      
   He was being held without bail Monday. Online court records did not show   
   an attorney who could speak on his behalf Monday night.   
      
   Norman was found April 9 buried under a shed in a shallow grave with   
   concrete poured overtop after cadaver dogs alerted on the property and   
   following the use of ground-penetrating radar, the sheriff’s office said.   
      
   Zizz was the last person to see Norman on April 1, and investigators later   
   learned he had dinner with her that night, Sheriff Derek Sanders said.   
      
   Norman’s family reported suspicious circumstances regarding a missing   
   person April 4.   
      
   Searches the next day at Zizz’s house and room uncovered “a five-page   
   letter which meticulously planned out a burglary and sexual assault of a   
   woman who is referred to as his customer,” Sanders said.   
      
   The letter is part of the investigation. Sanders said "there are   
   similarities" in what's described in the letter and what evidence shows   
   happened in the Norman case, he said.   
      
   “That part we’re still investigating,” Sanders said, adding that   
   detectives have a lot of follow-up work to do. “The letter that they   
   uncovered is extremely disturbing.”   
      
   There is no evidence of sexual assault, officials said.   
      
   A motive in the killing is not clear. “If I had to guess at this point in   
   time, it’s because the suspect that we have in custody is a violent   
   person,” Sanders said.   
      
   Officials said Zizz fled to Montana as detectives investigated Norman's   
   disappearance. Authorities in Thurston County obtained an arrest warrant   
   for a probation violation from a previous child molestation case,   
   officials said.   
      
   Zizz was arrested in Missoula, Montana, on April 7 and extradited to   
   Washington on April 13, the sheriff's office said.   
      
   Zizz had been initially interviewed in Norman's disappearance and his   
   answers seemed reasonable, Sanders said, but a license plate reader in   
   Olympia contradicted his claim he was home the night she disappeared.   
      
   "That was the first step in which we were able to put him into a lie and   
   then expand further," Sanders said.   
      
   An arraignment is scheduled for May 6, he said.
