VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — The woman accused of fatally stabbing her father, Virginia Beach-based dentist Dr. Abbey Horwitz, has withdrawn her bond hearing.
Norah Horwitz, 36, was taken into custody on Saturday, June 3, after police found 68-year-old Dr. Horwitz suffering from multiple stab wounds at a home in the Birdneck Point neighborhood of Virginia Beach. Police say he was pronounced dead by first responders shortly after they arrived.
She’s been charged with second-degree murder and stabbing in the commission of a felony.
She appeared in court the following Monday, where she was assigned a public defender. However, her bond hearing, which was scheduled for Tuesday, has been withdrawn as they figure out legal counsel.
It is unclear when Horwitz’s next court appearance will be.
