A 48-year-old Anchorage, Alaska man, Brian Steven Smith, has been arrested on suspicion of second-degree murder in the city after a discarded memory card was discovered which contains several videos depicting him assaulting and murdering a woman in a motel room, according to the Anchorage Daily News.
