Another unbelievable story. Husband cooks wife's body for four days.

Chef says he cooked wife's body for four days

David Viens walked into his living room and panicked. He discovered that he had accidentally killed his wife, he said, and wanted to get rid of her body.

The chef said he thought of how easily he disposed of grease in his restaurant. So, he said, he stuffed his wife's body, face-down, into a drum of boiling water — and cooked it. For four days.

Viens has pleaded not guilty to killing his wife, Dawn, who was 39 when she vanished in October 2009. In 2011, after Viens learned investigators suspected that he had played a role in her disappearance, he leaped off an 80-foot cliff in Rancho Palos Verdes — feet first, arms raised, screaming.

On Tuesday, a jury heard two interviews that Viens, 49, gave to sheriff's investigators from his hospital bed. Though his attorney, Fred McCurry, has repeatedly said investigators had no physical evidence showing what happened to Dawn Viens, her husband gave a graphic explanation as to why.

2. The name "Viens" adds to the story, but it would be better if it was "Veins".

 

Besides, doesn't he know that lye is the quickest way to dispose of a body short of incineration? Remind me not to eat at his restaurant.
