Autopsy rules out foul play in death of woman mauled by dogs

A Virginia sheriff’s office has conclusively ruled a 22-year-old woman was mauled to death by her two dogs and no foul play occurred, despite suspicions from the girl’s family and friends. The Goochland County Sheriff’s Office ruled Bethany Lynn Stephens’ death an accident as a result of animal mauling and closed the case Tuesday, roughly two months after she was found dead in a remote area of the town about an hour west of Richmond. A summary of the investigation concluded Stephens was “not raped” and was not the victim of a homicide. “She had defensive wounds on her hands and arms from trying to keep the dogs away from her. It appeared the first traumatic injury was to the face and throat,”
