Jumping spider with prey

Description:

The jumping spider hiding under the leaf and it was on its own, the prey was beside it, dead. The jumper soon fled the scene. Do you think this jumper made the kill? I have no idea.. Its very difficult to ID the jumper from this picture....

The alive one is a Rhene jumping spider.
The dead one is a Corinnid sac spider, either Trachelas or Utivarachna sp.
