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.
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.
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.

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.
The article is unclear about which body parts were dismantled and blended, i assume he just did the arms and legs or something. Which leaves a lot of the body to be found and analyzed.
Basically, if i get this right, he was cutting the body in pieces and blending them one by one, which i assume must be a long process so no wonder he got caught. Honestly if i were to get rid of a body that would also be my plan in its entirety
You'd be surprised the things they can figure out with modern forensics, maybe low oxygen in the remaining tissue, maybe a special enzyme that activates in the lungs when you are carbon dioxide poisoned.
The leaps in detection technology even in the last ten years are astounding.
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.
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.
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.
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?)
The start of the headline lured me in for the biggest WTF moment I've had in ages. I'll be sweating bullets the next time I see something about a former model/Miss-Wherever
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.
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.
Have you ever made a fucking smoothie? Do you know how hard it is to get that last little bit of ice to properly puree? Now imagine trying to blend fucking bone.
If this happens ever again, people are going to call the police on each other when they make smoothies for dinner. This is why the TSA will have a separate tray for blenders.
