A former model who was a finalist in the Miss Switzerland contest was allegedly murdered and “pureed” in a blender by her husband, officials in Switzerland are reported to have said.
Kristina Joksimovic, 38, was found dead in her home in Binningen, near Basel, Switzerland, in February this year.
According to local news outlet BZ Basel, a man named Thomas, 41, had an appeal for release from custody denied by the Federal Court in Lausanne on Wednesday after he reportedly confessed to killing his wife, with whom he had two children.
What. The fuck.
This is the most psychopathic thing I have seen in quite some time. wtf
Yeah I didn’t need to read this headline as soon as I woke up
I dunno I thought nothing was gonna beat the Olympian that was hunted down and set on fire by her Ex just earlier this month but yeah this beat it.
Because that would sure eliminate the DNA evidence…
A murderer and a moron.
Redundant, 99.99% of murderers are complete morons.
I don’t know about morons, but you have to be pretty ignorant to think you can get away with murdering your spouse these days.
Well clearly this guy was smoothie brained.
…
nice
The ones that get caught anyways
I assume that that’s what the chemical solution was for.
Maybe, but you can watch pretty much any true crime story about a modern murder and see that, at this point, it’s so hard to hide you or your victim’s DNA that most of the unsolved cases are mostly due to police fuckups. Or deliberately ignoring evidence.
Ehhh idk about that one. In a case like this? Sure. Random crimes are almost never solved tho. If you go two states over in a car, shoot someone in the face, and then go home, then you’re almost never gonna get caught. Especially if it occurred somewhere with a high crime rate or to a member of a marginalized community.
Don’t get any ideas tho!
Very true, especially in countries like the US:

https://thehill.com/homenews/3878472-nearly-half-of-us-murders-going-unsolved-data-show/
For the US, the national average is around 40-50% for unsolved homicides. Some states/cities are even higher. Pretty depressing, really. We live in a heavy Police State society and yet law enforcement fails so badly in their primary purpose.
TBF if it looks like paste as opposed to a murder victim you’re less likely to DNA test it in the first place. It’s moot because it was the spouse in this case, though, and I’m skeptical he got that far with just a hand blender. (Unless he moved to a real one afterwards?)
Most of murders aren’t calculated acts with an escape plan, a lot of them done in a heat of a situation or under some influence.
This guy probably didn’t thought he’d do that and then panicked, couldn’t manage to find any other way to get rid of the body but using a blender he usually used to smash vegs and stuff.
Other ways of life could’ve probably lead him to another tool or method he is comfortable with in his day-to-day life, but his first thought was a blender.
He did what with the what now!?
To shreds you say?
Oh
Oh no
Thats the opposite of good news.
Unless you are a Blender robot.Must blend all humans
Must bend all humans

Did he drink her?
That is the question
I did not expect to read “Blender” and “Model” in this context ever.
Try blender.org you use it to model. Literally, you can make models using a blender. You, know, a version of it.
So… like running a blender in reverse? 😁
My mind couldn’t contemplate the title when I first read it. I thought this was some sort of AI art or deep fake “blender” program that he was selling nudes or vids of her that he had constructed… the whole actual person being put into a blender just didn’t even compute.
I was so confused at the title too. What does being “pureed” in blender animation software even mean?
Why do people suddenly call a mixer a blender? Isn’t “blend” related to light? English makes no sense.
English makes no sense.
Too true!
Isn’t “blend” related to light?
You can use blend for anything, especially if you’re creating a mix of two original things. And you could mix light too (you have things like
mix()
for colors in CSS).In cooking, I would call something you use to mix dough a mixer, and something you use to make a smoothie a blender. I guess there are some subtle differences in “feel” but the words are almost interchangeable.
Good to know, thanks
BZ Basel also said Thomas was arrested the day after Ms Joksimovic’s body was found, and initially told investigators he had found her dead and dismembered her body in their laundry room in panic.
Let those who have not dismembered a family member in a panic with a jigsaw and garden shears before dissolving their pulped body in a bath of acid throw the first stone.
When you put it like that… Maybe we shouldn’t be so quick to judge.
If only he got the mental health he needed…
It was self defense, after all, and one can never be too safe.
Woman must have been an antideluvian vampire to require such extreme measures.
In Florida this man would be a hero.
When Vita-mixes are criminalized, only criminals will have Vita-mixes.
There’s a documentary on Hulu I highly recommend called The Jinx, about multimillionaire serial killer Robert Durst. One of my favorite lines from him is “I did not kill my best friend, but I did dismember him”.
His family owns like half of NYC. Someone I know used to work directly under them and can confirm the batshit runs down the whole family tree.
No spoilers, but the very end of that series is absolutely insane. Up there with “Icarus” or “An Honest Liar” as great documentaries that end up having a completely unpredictable twist that changes the trajectory of the film completely.
Is that your friend in the woodchipper there, heh?
I have to go through the entire rest of the day having this in the back of my mind the whole time. GFD. 🫣
Fight to urge to blend someone to see if it tastes good
Only yesterday I came across this link thanks to Lemmy - be warned it’s gruesome:
Wow humans are awful
Because what sane person, who upon walking into their home and finding a loved one unconscious (or even worse :dead:) doesn’t reach for their blender.
Amiright, guys??
Look I was hungry and the fridge only had two slices of cheese, a quarter of a bottle of expired milk, and some random sauce packets. I worked woth what I had on hand.
I bet he used a Blendtec
This is human smoke. Don’t breathe this.
What the fuck bros
That’s an episode of “Will It Blend?” I didn’t think we’d ever get in real life.
It’s one of could have gone my entire life without knowing was a possibility.
gross.
You’re terrible, even by my standards, which are impressively low
I like to treat every standard like a limbo bar and see how much lower I can go.
Um, so did they say what blender it was?
