ST. PETERSBURG -- A woman who was stabbed in the Palace Mobile Home Park, a haven for sex offenders in Pinellas County, has died, the Pinellas Sheriff's Office said. Authorities identified the woman as Anna Marie Kasvicis, 22.

Deputies were searching for Christopher Robertson, 41, the suspect in the case. He is described as a white male with gray short hair, 6 feet tall, 170 pounds. He was last seen wearing a black shirt and blue jeans. Deputies say that the suspect and the victim knew each other, and this was not a random act.

Responding deputies have established a perimeter and are actively searching the vicinity of the Palace Mobile Home Park.

Anyone seeing a person matching this description is asked to call the Sheriff's Office, 582-6200.

Nearly 100 sex offenders -- or about 10 percent of all sex offenders in Pinellas County -- live in the Palace at 2500 54th Avenue N.
