Salinas woman
fatally stabbed
A Salinas woman died yesterday after
being stabbed in her home, and her estranged husband was arrested for the
murder.
Salinas Police said a seven-year-old*
girl called at 12:42 a.m. yesterday and reported that a man was stabbing her
mother, Janet Krebbs, in their home at 465 Montgomery St.
When officers arrived at the home they found
Dwight Krebbs, 46, coming out of an upstairs bedroom, allegedly with blood on
his hands and arms. Janet Krebbs, 39,
was in the bedroom wounded. She was
rushed to Salinas Valley Memorial Hospital, where she died at 5:05 a.m.
Police said Dwight Krebbs was estranged
from his wife and was not living in the home, and that he alledgedly gained
entry by breaking in.
The girl and her 10-year-old* brother
were taken into protective custody by Monterey County Child Protective
Services.
Dwight Krebbs was arrested and booked
into Monterey County Jail.
*Submitter's Notes: Later articles gave the girl as the older
child, age 10, and the boy as age 5.

Salinas slaying
stuns neighbors
Girl reports
fatal stabbing of
her mother
By Ricky de la Torre
Residents of the Rico-Rossi neighborhood
on Sunday tried to sort out the deadly violence that came to their block under
cover of darkness.
Janet Krebbs, 39, was stabbed to death
by her estranged husband, police said.
The couple's two children were home at
the time. The older child, a girl, was
the one who called 911 to say that her mother was being attacked by a man with
a knife.
Police arrested the husband, Dwight
Krebbs, 46, at the home.
He was being held Sunday night without
bail at Monterey County Jail.
The slaying is the city's third this
year.
"It's the sort of thing that can
happen in any neighborhood at any time, unfortunately," said Julie Boothe,
44, who lives across the street.
Another neighbor, Denice Plymale, 37,
said it was a tragedy.
"It's just hard to believe. It's so sad.
You feel so terrible. You're so
close. There's nothing you can do,"
Plymale said.
Several neighbors said it was
reassuring that there isn't a killer on the loose. "It's reassuring to hear that it's
domestic violence, not random murder," one neighbor said. "That would be scary if someone was
waiting in the home."
Several neighbors said they didn't have
much contact with the Krebbs family. The
Krebbses didn't often come out of the two-story shingle-roof home, which they
moved into about six months ago.
It wasn't known when the husband moved
out of the house.
The children -- a girl, 10, and a boy,
5 -- didn't play with other kids in the neighborhood, residents said.
Neighbors said they didn't hear any
kind of commotion or screaming at the time of the killing.
Police got the 911 call from the
daughter at 12:42 a.m. Sunday.
Police investigators gave this account:
The girl let officers into the home at
465 Montgomery St. She told officers
that her mother and father were upstairs.
At the top of the stairs, police saw
the husband coming out of a bedroom.
He had blood on his hands and arms.
Without being told, the man put his
hands behind his back.
The woman had been repeatedly stabbed
in the chest with a steak knife, but was able to talk with police.
She was taken to Salinas Valley
Memorial Hospital, and died about three hours later.
The boy had been asleep downstairs and
slept through the ordeal.
The children were placed under the care
of the county's child protective agency.

Repairing young
psyches
Children of
emotional scars, local
experts say
By Roys Camp
Society's youngest members often are
unwitting observers of the most unspeakable crimes as Salinas psychologist
Mauro Amador can attest.
In his 20 years of specializing in
child psychology, Amador has seen patients as young as 3 who suffer with the
burden of bearing witness to in-home violence -- or are themselves the victims.
"It seems to be increasing, in
frequency and in severity," Amador said Tuesday. "It tends to happen in cycles, often
with the economy. People become
impatient, and it's easy to resort to aggression."
Ventura County resident, E. A. McKinley
knows all about domestic "aggression." He said he learned about it in December, when
his daughter, 39-year-old Janet Krebbs, and her family visited for the
holidays.
"It happened before,"
McKinley said in a telephone interview.
McKinley said that during the visit, his 5-year-old grandson, Sean,
"came up to me and said, 'Grandpa, Dad hit Mom.'"
Before dawn Sunday, Krebbs was fatally
stabbed in her Salinas home as her 10-year-old daughter, Harmony, watched. Police suspect her estranged husband,
46-year-old Dwight Krebbs.
The daughter called for police, who
arrested Dwight Krebbs as he emerged from an upstairs bedroom in the couple's
Montgomery Street home. Krebbs is being
held at Monterey County Jail, charged with murder and burglary. The children now are with their grandfather
and are expected to find a permanent home with another McKinley daughter, as
specified in Janet Krebbs' will.
In another case . . . .
*Submitter’s Note: Above
are two other articles. Another article headlined “Murdered wife feared for safety” told of the
steps Janet had done to protect herself including changing all the locks and
getting a restraining order. It also
said that she worked at the Naval Postgraduate School and that her husband was
“a retired Army sergeant who quit his job as a security guard in December.”
