A newly released affidavit details what happened on Halloween morning in south Wichita when 47-year-old Angelynn "Angie" Mock reportedly stabbed her 80-year-old mother, Anita Avers.
โ
Just before 8AM on October 31st, officers were sent to the 1500 block of East Crowley after a woman, who identified herself as Angelynn, told 911 her mother tried to kill her, so she stabbed her in self-defense. When officers arrived, they found Angelynn outside with blood on her hands, clothes, & face. She also had multiple cuts on both hands & a deeper cut on her right arm.
โ
Inside the home, officers found Anita in the master bedroom. She was wearing only undergarments, lying on the bed, unresponsive, with severe stab wounds to her face, neck, torso, & arms. She was rushed to the hospital but was pronounced deceased at 8:26AM. An autopsy later confirmed she died from multiple stab wounds that hit major organs & blood vessels, including her heart, lung, thyroid cartilage, jugular vein, & carotid artery.

Angelynn, who looked shaken & worn down, told officers on scene sheโd gone into her motherโs bedroom that morning to talk about a job interview she had coming up. She said Anita was sharpening knives & told her she was jealous & didnโt want her to get the job. According to Angelynn, Anita came at her with a knife & the two fought. She said she pushed Anita back because she was stronger. She claimed Anita told her, โI know youโre fu***ng Jesus Christ.โ Angelynn said she backed away, but Anita followed her, so she moved around her, grabbed a knife, & got on top of her. She told officers Anita โstarted spewing venom at me out of her fu***ng mouth,โ which made her believe she had to stab her to save herself. She said, โI had to kill her, she wasnโt going to stop.โ The affidavit notes she first said she stabbed first, but later said Anita stabbed first.
โ
After getting medical treatment, Angelynn was taken in for further processing. While alone in the interview room, she made several statements to herself, saying things like, โIโd kill that bitch to have my mom back any day,โ & โI believe sheโs the devil.โ
โ
โ
Inside the home, investigators found a bloody cell phone on the kitchen sink, a clean kitchen knife on the floor, & a butcher-style knife covered in blood on a coffee table next to another phone. Anitaโs bed was heavily soaked in blood. Several kitchen knives & a cheese grater were arranged on a pillow beside her, all covered in blood. Investigators counted twelve stab-style holes in the top sheet & found blood spatter on the walls, curtains, & floor. A trail of blood started outside on the driveway & sidewalk & continued through the houseโmoving through the living room, kitchen, dining room, & a second living areaโbefore ending in the master bedroom.
โ
โ
Investigators spoke with neighbors who said Angelynn ran out of the house with blood on her hands & went straight to a truck parked across the street. She banged on the window, begging for someone to call 911. They described her as frantic, out of breath, shaking, & covered in blood. One neighbor said she briefly sat in the passenger seat of the truck while making the call, then got back out & paced around in a panicked state.
โ
They also interviewed Anitaโs husband, who said Angelynn had moved in with them four to five years earlier. He said Anita encouraged her to stay in mental-health treatment because her symptoms had become harder for her to manage. He said she was originally diagnosed with bipolar disorder before doctors later changed it to schizoaffective disorder.
โ
He told investigators that Angelynn struggled with delusions, unusual beliefs, sudden mood changes, & long stretches of depression. He described moments when she made strange claimsโlike saying people were robots or insisting certain relatives werenโt realโ& talked about spiritual roles she believed she had. He also mentioned past episodes where she became overwhelmed or agitated, sometimes yelling during small disagreements, while other times withdrawing for days.
โ
He said sheโd had one major outburst years ago that led to a two-week psychiatric hospitalization. Even with all of that, he said he never saw her as violent & never felt unsafe around her. He described her relationship with Anita as the typical mother-daughter back-&-forth but still close. The night before the stabbing, they seemed calm & were talking normally before bed, & everything still looked normal when he left for work around 7:10AM that morning.

โ
Angelynn was booked into the Sedgwick County Jail that afternoon on a $1 million bond. She was formally charged with First Degree Premeditated Murder on November 4th. Then, on November 14th, a judge ordered a competency evaluation after concerns were raised about her mental state.
โ
โ
Before all of this, Angelynn worked as a morning news anchor for FOX 2 in St. Louis from 2011 to around 2014/2015. According to the affidavit, her stepdad told investigators she was laid off after what he described as โan explosive situation involving alcohol.โ
