A former Fox News anchor turned corporate consultant, Angelynn \u201cAngie\u201d Elizabeth Mock, 47, was arrested in Wichita, Kansas, after her 80-year-old mother, Anita Avers, was found with multiple stab wounds on October 31, 2025. Police responded to a \u201creported cutting\u201d around 7:52 a.m. and discovered Avers unresponsive in bed; she was pronounced dead at 8:26 a.m. Mock was detained on the scene and later booked into the Sedgwick County Jail on a first-degree murder charge, with bond set at $1 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Early reporting hints at a potential self-defense claim. Dispatch audio cited by local media references a woman saying she \u201cstabbed her mother to save herself.\u201d Neighbor Alyssa Castro told reporters that a blood-covered woman approached her vehicle asking to call 911, then ran back inside\u2014behavior believed to be Mock contacting authorities herself. Investigators have not confirmed a motive, prior domestic history, or how the confrontation unfolded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The case contrasts sharply with Mock\u2019s public r\u00e9sum\u00e9. She spent years anchoring morning news in multiple markets, including KOKH FOX 25 (Oklahoma City) and KTVI FOX 2 (St. Louis), earning industry recognition before moving into software sales as a data management consultant in 2019. She also participated in charitable events, emceeing for the American Heart Association and supporting Alzheimer\u2019s initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mock remains in custody as detectives continue their investigation. Authorities have released limited details about the weapon or precipitating events. The community mourns Avers\u2019 death while awaiting clearer answers from the legal process. Our condolences go out to Avers\u2019 family and all who knew her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
