New video has been released of a fatal stabbing that happened inside a Massapequa home late Saturday.
Police say two women were stabbed inside the house around 7 p.m.
They say a 34-year-old man stabbed two women, a 29-year-old and a 22-year-old, and then tried to kill himself inside the home.
Police say the 29-year-old, Irene Spantopanagos-Maiolica, was pronounced dead Sunday.
Friends say she was married to the man - but was separated - and had a 17-month-old child with him.
Sources say the other 22-year-old woman who was stabbed had a relationship with the man.
A GoFundMe page was set up to offset the medical and funeral costs for Spantopanagos-Maiolica and for the immediate care of her daughter, Alessia Marie.
