Woman accused of killing partner, cooking remains
A woman in Chile killed her partner before dismembering his body and cooking the remains after she accused him of stealing $10,000 from her, local media reported Monday.
Roxana Valdes, 39, shot dead Carlos Ramirez after a violent argument at their home in Molina, about 200 kilometeres south of Santiago.
Valdes claimed Ramirez, the father of her son, had fired several shots into his chest after discovering he had allegedly stolen $10,000 from her, police chief Pedro Diaz reported.
In an attempt to conceal the killing, she chopped up her partner’s body and cooked the pieces in a pot before dumping the remains in rubbish bags at a public landfill in Molina, authorities said.
Valdes admitted the killing to police after being questioned on Monday, prosecutor Marcelo Garrido said.
