Woman Kills Husband And Cooks Body

A woman in eastern China murdered her
husband and boiled the corpse to cover her
tracks after he abused her and her
daughter, a report said Saturday.
The woman drugged the man, her second
husband, and tortured him for three days in
June by withholding food and water and
beating him, causing his death, said a report
on government-backed news portal Anhui
News.
She then dismembered the corpse with a saw
and boiled the parts in a pressure cooker to
hide the evidence, the report said. It did not
detail how she disposed of the cooked flesh
afterwards.
The psychological burden of the crime proved
too much for her to bear, causing her to lose
14 pounds (6.3 kilograms) and turn herself
into police, according to the report.
A police officer in Anhui province's Lu'an City,
where the incident occurred, confirmed the
case to AFP but declined to give further
details.
