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.

    I suspect he vastly underestimated the scope of the job.

    Shopkeeper: Oh, hello Thomas, back already? How was that blender? Not big enough you say? Well how big do you need? A whole large coconut you say?

      I found about 66 liters as the volume of the average person. Assuming a regular 1.5 liter blender, that would mean roughly 44 blending sessions. And that’s not taking into account the problems you’ll have with large bones or bones in general.

        Bones, tendons, cartilage those blades would probably be toast after about 30 minutes. The article also mentioned chemical so I’m assuming he tried to do some form of chemical treatment but it wasn’t moving along fast enough.
