A court in Volusia County, Fla. has sentenced a woman to life in prison for dismembering and cooking her neighbor, Associated Press (AP) reports.

Authorities say that Angela Stoldt, 42, strangled her 36-year-old victim, James Sheaffer, to death. She attempted to cremate his body by dismembering it and putting body parts into the oven, as well as into pots on the stove. However, this did not work, and she ended up throwing the parts into the trash.

Stoldt had a platonic relationship with the victim and relied on him for money, AP reported. Her motivation for the murder was money, authorities said.

Stoldt was convicted of first-degree murder despite her claim that she killed the man in self-defense.

이웃을 '요리'한 여성, 종신형 선고 받아

미국 볼루시아 지역의 재판에서는 한 여성을 이웃을 ‘요리’했다는 죄로 종신형을 선고받았다고 AP통신이 보도했다.

관계자에 의하면 안젤라 스톨드트 (42세)는 이웃인 36살 제임스 셰퍼를 목졸라 살해했고, 토막살인해서 요리용 화장하기 위해서 오븐안에 넣었다고 전했다.

오븐안에 들어가지 않자 시체를 가지고 집 근처 쓰레기통에 처분했었으며, 두 남녀는 서로를 많이 의지하는 관계였다는 것이 밝혀졌다.

스톨드트는 자기방어 목적으로 살해한 것이라고 전했지만, 종신형 선고를 받게 되었다.
