PALM RIVER, Fla. — Prosecutors are asking a judge to keep a man in jail without bond after he was accused of killing his girlfriend.
Court documents state that Kyle Sanchez stabbed Amanda Roark to death on Friday afternoon. Roark called 911 just after 3 p.m., and dispatchers reported hearing her say “stop” and “you’re killing me.”
According to the documents, Sanchez called 911 about 12 minutes later and told dispatchers he had murdered his girlfriend.
When deputies arrived, they found 37-year-old Amanda Roark, who was pronounced dead at the scene with upper-body trauma.
Kyle Sanchez, 35, was taken to Tampa General Hospital with minor injuries.
On Saturday, HCSO detectives said they learned Sanchez killed Roark, his girlfriend, while they were at the home together, according to a news release.
Sanchez was charged with premeditated first-degree murder with a weapon. He was still being treated in the hospital as of Saturday morning, per the release.
Investigators said Sanchez told them he had recently finished a contract as a data analyst at MacDill Air Force Base.

For years, homeowners in one Hillsborough County neighborhood had fences around their backyards — fences that were approved by their homeowners' association. But now, another organization with government powers says some of those fences are blocking drainage easements and have to go, at the owners' expense.
