REDMOND, WA - After notifying the family of a Redmond woman who was discovered dead in her apartment on April 3, police can now release her identity. Detectives believe that Aterraka Scotland, 27, is responsible for killing her wife, 26-year-old Tiffany Scotland.

Detectives are awaiting the official cause of death from the King County Medical Examiner's Office.
