Kristina Joksimovic, a 38-year-old former Miss Switzerland finalist and mother of two, was found dead in a horrifying crime that has shocked Switzerland and the world. On February 13, 2024, Kristina was discovered in the laundry room of her home in Binningen, a suburb southwest of Basel, having been brutally murdered by her husband, who has been identified only as 'Thomas' by the Swiss media.
According to official reports, Thomas strangled Kristina before dismembering her body with a jigsaw blade, knife, and garden shears.
The chilling details of the crime were further revealed when it was reported that several body parts were pureed in a blender and dissolved in a chemical solution. The grotesque nature of the crime has drawn significant media attention and public outrage.
Thomas initially claimed that the killing was an act of self-defense, stating that he dismembered his wife "in a panic.
" However, his defense was not convincing to the courts. During a crime reconstruction the following month, Thomas confessed to the murder. Despite his claims, forensic evidence and medical reports have contradicted his self-defense narrative, revealing a troubling pattern of violence.
The case took a dramatic turn when Thomas appealed for his release, arguing that he acted out of fear and panic. His appeal was based on his claim of mental distress and the assertion that he was in a state of extreme agitation.
