a medical examiner can determine the time of death (and freak out with the nails) so they can know whether it was a minute or a day before Melissa came in. But yeah, right now we don't know when the death kill occured.

Actually we don't even know if it's a kill really. It might just as well be a suicide, though given the place, position and weapon, it's quite unlikely..
