German retiree 'fed to dog' by Russian wife in Mallorca


A Russian newlywed slowly butchered her German husband — feeding strips of his flesh to their dog until he took his last breath. Svetlana Batukova, 46, is accused of the drug-fueled weekend slaying of Horst Hans Henkels, 66, at their posh home in Spain, according to The Local. Batukova, who regularly posted pictures online of herself cuddling her Staffordshire bull terrier, stabbed Henkels with a kitchen knife last Friday, police said. As he lay bleeding out on the floor, she carved off slices of his arm down to the bone and hand-fed them to her beloved dog, authorities said.
