A Brazilian housewife was convicted and sentenced to 19 years in prison Friday for killing her husband, chopping his body into small pieces and frying it. Rosanita Nery dos Santos, 52, drugged her husband in his sleep, then stabbed him to death two years ago in Salvador, about 900 miles northeast of Sao Paulo, said police spokesman Idmar Bonfim.
She then hacked Jose Raimundo Soares dos Santos' body into more than 100 pieces, which she boiled and fried before hiding in plastic bags beneath a staircase in her house, Bonf
im said. He said police discovered the body parts after receiving an anonymous phone call.
Bonfim said the killing was either part of a black magic ritual or an attempt by the wife to collect life insurance worth about $34,000.
Citing testimony from the woman's relatives, he said she may also have committed the crime "to avenge many years of humiliation from her husband." He did not provide further details.
Santos denied killing her husband but said she chopped up his body, Bonfim said.
"She claims masked assailants entered her house, killed her husband and then forced her to cut up the body and fry it because that would prevent the stench of a decomposing body from alerting neighbors," he said.

I also wonder: what kind of knife did she use?
why did she boil him first?how much cooking oil did it take?
how big was the frying pan?
how long did it take to fry all those pieces?
what did she do with his bones?
Oh...one last thought....seems like an awful lot of work for $34,000.00.
20 yrs had passed? and someone just now is turning her in...hmmm I wonder if the woman talks in her sleep?
ReplyDeleteTwo years had passed, Jerr....not 20.
ReplyDeleteAlthough if 20 had passed, it would have made this even more interesting. ;-)
Hmmmmm that gives me an idea....
ReplyDeleteI don't think she would have needed cooking oil though would she? I would imagine the skin would provide lots of its own fat.
YuK!
There was another case of this just a few miles south of my home town. Only it was a husband who killed his wife, then fried her up using the fryers in their restaurant. People ate in the place after he did it!!!
ReplyDeleteWould you like a side of human flesh with those fries, ma'am?
pixie: OMG! His own fat! I hadn't thought of that!!!
ReplyDeletejenn: Really? I hadn't heard of that one! Those poor people who ate there after that....can you ever really get over something like that? *gag* :(
34K is worth alot more in places like Brazil, so I understand why she'd do it for the money. I do agree though, alot of effort for such a little amount.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good one. I usually use a wood chipper, but frying is good to consider. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI read about that!! Talk about gross. I was wondering about the bones too. ick
ReplyDeleteEwww.
ReplyDeleteI mean, EWWWW.
Just checking in. I'm working the night shift. Thought I'd get some blogging done between flights.
I miss you. :)
She must have really been pissed off! Can you imagine how long it would take to cut someone up!?! Scary!
ReplyDeleteI must be sick because I was imagining what would it be like to fry up certain parts.
ReplyDelete*placing penis in pan* "Good Times Albert, good times."
*placing toes in pan* "You never did take care of those ugly things, Albert"
Know what I mean?
That reminds me of the film Hide and Seek with Jennifer Tilly, when she is chopping up her husband and putting the slop down the drain.
ReplyDeleteThat's the last time I piss off Rachel Ray.
ReplyDeleteim sure she had one of those ginso knives they advertise on tv...she should have used one of those turkey fryers, would have been much faster. When will men learn NOT to humiliate their wives???;))
ReplyDeleteAnd, did she taste him?
ReplyDeleteWas he a bit "gamey"?
Ya, this would be kind of funny, but this article kind of makes it sad.

EEEWWWW!!! That's so gross! And crazy! Like seriously... divorce? NO? Not an option??
ReplyDeleteIt provides a whole new interpretation of the old 1970s "Enjoli" perfume commercial ...
ReplyDelete"I can bring home the bacon / Enjoli! / Fry it up in a pan / Enjoli! / And never never let you forget you're a man! / 'Cuz I'm a woooo-man!"
You don't think you might have given Hotlipz some ideas with this posting, do you??
I have chopped people up for much less.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Mrs. Slushie. I think this may have been less about the money and more about rage.
ReplyDeleteHoly Hurling Feces!
Now I will think differently of Brazilian Barbeque.
