Life for woman who boiled head [Australia]
AAP ^ | September 11, 2006

A woman who stabbed her partner 37 times before skinning him, beheading him and baking his body parts has lost an appeal against her life sentence.

Katherine Knight claimed the February 2000 killing of her de facto husband, John Price, was not in the worst category of murder and did not warrant life in prison.

The NSW Court of Criminal Appeal today rejected Knight's appeal against the sentence, which she claimed was manifestly excessive.

She then cut off his head and boiled it in a pot and baked pieces of his buttocks to serve with vegetables and gravy to his adult children.

Holy cow.

He said Knight had expressed no remorse for the killing. "The psychiatric evidence indicates that her personality is unlikely to change in the future and, if released, she would be likely to inflict serious injury, perhaps death, on others,"

Perhaps? PERHAPS?

Absolutely!

I feel for her children. I cannot imagine the psychological trauma they endured whether they partook and found out later or knew when she served them.

" .. which she claimed was manifestly excessive."

Perhaps, Kate .. the appelate court considered your crime manifestly excessive.

"The former abattoir worker stabbed the 44-year-old father of two 37 times before skinning him and hanging his hide from a meat hook in their lounge room."

Brought her work home with her.

De facto husband? Is that like a de facto head of state?

Or a de facto boiled head of state?

Skinning, dismembering and cooking aside, she doesn't think stabbing some one THIRTY-SEVEN TIMES isn't excessive?????

Any pics of the lass? I bet she's an eyeful. Conversely, I'll bet she's had her fill of eyes, too.
