Maryland State Police took over the investigation and recovered surveillance footage from the Rambler, which showed Pittman walking out of Robins’ room while holding his throat and collapsing to the ground.

Video also captured Robins throwing an object out of his apartment. Investigators recovered the object, which turned out to be a 10-inch steak knife covered in blood.
