I walked a little bit closer and I saw a pool of blood and so then I yelled back to my wife to call cops, call the ambulance.

Jonathan Figgins is on the stand in a courtroom in Tampa, Florida, recalling a night about six months prior when he came across something horrific outside of his house.

Back in the early morning hours of Saturday, May 28, 2022, just after midnight, Jonathan was laying on the couch in his living room.

He was fast asleep in his Lithia, Florida home when he was awoken by a loud noise.

While sleeping and basically I heard a loud thump followed by a kind of a cry of pain and I immediately thought that it was my daughter who was upstairs.

He immediately jumped up, assuming one of his daughters had fallen off their bed.

He called up the stairs to ask if she was okay, but she was fine. Well, who's yelling, he asked. His wife Ruth then woke up, just in time for Jonathan to hear another noise and bolts out the front door.

As he exited his home and went out onto the front porch, he noticed someone laying on the ground between his house and his neighbor's house.

A drunk teenager perhaps? It had been the last day of the school year for the districts in the area. Maybe there was a party going on nearby.

He called out to the person, hey are you okay? No response. He kept calling out to the person to no avail. He decided instead to approach.

As he neared the person, he heard rustling from the woods behind his home. He yelled back into his house for his wife to turn on their backyard lights, concerned that someone else may be back there.

But by the time they were switched on, the sound was gone.

Jonathan turned his attention back to the person lying in his front yard and was thrown into immediate shock. A pool of blood was surrounding the person's head, an older woman, no teenager.

He yelled back to his wife to call the police and an ambulance.

He then attempted to help the woman who at the time was struggling to breathe. He was instructed by first responders on the phone to flip her on to her back and access where the blood was coming from. Upon doing so, he discovered a large gash running across her throat from her jaw. The cut was so deep, bone could be seen.

We need to start moving, you need to start compressions if we can lay our flag on your back.

The sheriff's and Ralph.

Jonathan began doing compressions on her chest, holding a towel to her wounds. But it wouldn't be enough. She was dying.

It's hard to stick with working out. I know that after I had my daughter, it was super difficult to continue to be motivated to get up early every morning and get a workout in.

But Peloton made it a lot easier. They have on-demand classes so you can sneak in a workout whenever you want. For however long you want it to be, and their instructors are incredibly motivating and make the workout fun.

It got to the point where I looked forward to hopping on my bike in the mornings.
