The criminal documents state the Dixon's cell phone had many photos of Kumra's Monte Sereno mansion. The document shows she tried to get together with Kumra many times in the months before he was killed and he refused her.

Dixon's attorney, John Ambrosio, declined comment on Friday, saying he needed to talk to his client first about the newly public documents
