The indictment also states that after realizing her dog was dead, she “took a double-edged axe and stabbed her several more times.” In total, Itzkovich stabbed the family dog ​​more than 40 times, including 20 cuts and stabs to the head and face and more than 24 stabs to the chest area. After her cruel acts, she washed the knife “with the intent to prevent or obstruct legal proceedings,” changed her clothes, and left her house barefoot, heading for the Herzliya shopping center with an axe still bloody from the murders.

On her way, she attacked passers-by and the mall's security guard, injured the security guard and rammed a car. The prosecution accuses her of grievous bodily harm, murder, killing an animal and obstruction of justice.

Itzkovich had asked for her release at the hearing on Wednesday, claiming: “My family and I were attacked by aliens for two weeks. It was a violent attack. I saw aliens, I was abducted with my family into a spaceship and had no protection.” Despite the serious allegations, she also said: “I have to return home to get ready, pack things, clean, prepare food. I have a lot to do at home.”

About two weeks ago, Itzkovich returned to her home where she stabbed her son Liam to death to recreate the crime scene for the investigation. Instead, she threw a tantrum, which did not surprise her lawyer. “Her mental state is not good enough to perform a crime scene reconstruction.”

The security guard argued with Itskovich until she was arrested. Initially, only the attack near the mall was reported, but later Liam's grandmother, Sigal's mother, discovered the horror in the apartment. Since the gruesome murder, she has been undergoing a psychiatric evaluation to determine her fitness to stand trial. At one of the hearings, Itzkovich apologized for the “heinous act,” which she described as “disgusting,” and accused her partner of “bullying” her financially.

Itskovich confessed to the murders during her investigation and pleaded guilty. When asked why she murdered her son, she replied: “I don't know what happened to me. Maybe a demon possessed me. I was like in a frenzy, I saw darkness and a voice told me to do it. I quickly stabbed them, my son and the dog, I took the ax and left the house, not knowing what I was doing. I ran out into the street, I was in a state of confusion until they arrested me.”
