Sick reason Aussie decapitated friend (NEWS.com.au)

An Australian osteopath beheaded her pensioner friend before dumping her body in woodland 400km away.

She went on to study osteopathy in Australia and her professional website stated that as a result of her training she was “attuned to subjects in neuroanatomy, genetics and dissection of human cadavers”. She added: “We still do not understand how she died. But the victim was so fed up of her friend badgering her for money that she texted: “Not talk about house or money, stresses them both out”. “Deborah Chong was a vulnerable lady – in the weeks before her murder, she was seeking help for her declining mental health. He said: “The motivation for Jemma Mitchell‘s actions was money and she showed a significant degree of planning and calculation as she attempted to cover up her horrific actions. “What is clear is that Mitchell – seeing her chance to obtain the funds she so desperately desired disappear – decided to attack and murder a vulnerable lady for her own gain in a truly despicable crime.” Did she suffer? Her head was found ten metres away in undergrowth and had been “cleanly cut” from the rest of the body. Inside the devout Christian‘s handbag was a tote bag, camera and a “length of orange nylon rope”. A bedraggled Mitchell seemed lost for words as she was read her rights by officers and realised she was being arrested. He added she showed “no remorse” over the murder of her friend, and that “this was a murder done for gain”. Amy said she had suffered sleepless nights and the murder of her sister had left a “huge bottomless hole” in her life.
