FILE - This is a 2010 file photo showing Greg Halman of the Seattle Mariners baseball team. A Dutch court has ordered the brother of slain former Mariners outfielder Greg Halman provisionally released after prosecutors joined the defense in asking for his acquittal on manslaughter charges. Jason Halman is believed to have fatally stabbed his older brother after the two quarreled about loud music in the early hours of Nov. 21, 2011. During Jason Halman's trial, psychiatrists said he was having a psychotic episode at the time of the killing, which took place in an apartment they were sharing in Rotterdam.

This image taken from TV footage provided by the Associated Press Television News shows a place where two women stabbed to death were found Aug. 30, 2012, under this sign on the wall of their apartment in Kazan, Russia. The sign is presumably written with blood, prosecutors said adding that the murderer probably tried to mislead police by the writing that supports three members of the provocative feminist band jailed for their "punk prayer" at a Moscow cathedral.
