The following is a few excerpts extracted and condensed from the local Sydney Australia news papers following this macabre story.
According to her barrister, Katherine Knight's murder of her husband was a unremarkable domestic killing.
The fact that she stabbed her De-facto husband John Price 37 times and skinned and mutilated his body was not heinous enough to deserve spending the rest of her life behind bars. John Stratton SC public defender stated, in a bid to have her sentence reduced.
Knight 50 sat in the dock wearing a silver cross and heard she would be the first Australian woman to be jailed for the term of her natural life.
Defence lawyer John Stratton stated, what took her crime outside the ordinary range of gravity of a domestic murder, was what she did to John Price after the murder but it was not enough to take it into the worst kind of murder.
Now this will make your hair curl.
Knight, a slicer and packer at the Aberdeen Abattoir meticulously skinned Mr Price's body and hung the skin on a hook in a doorway in his house.
She cooked parts of his buttocks and served them up with vegetables and gravy on a dining room table set with name cards for Mr Price's three children.
His decapitated head was found in a pot on the stove.
The defence claimed that a maximum of two years is usually awarded for interfering with a corpse, and the judge had not taken into consideration that she had been a victim of domestic violence.
However crown prosecutor said that the judge had concluded it had been Knight not her three previous partners who was the aggressor. A case like this has features of barbarism that we have never heard of in this state. The crown prosecutor concluded stating that, Knight was a cruel vindictive and violent woman who killed her husband out of revenge because he had ended their relationship.
What are you having for dinner tonight? BTW dont forget the gravy and vegies, Slurp Slurp. Umm.

Ugh! The woman had to be mental! Why didn't she plead insanity? Bet nobody wants her working in the kitchen in prison...
Being piddly widly again I have sorta stuffed up once more, my reply is on your site, not the best time for me to be doing this, explain later.
read about dis
i tot it was VEST in the gravy
Saby: It was a person named John Price who had his head boiled, surely you can read? A number of people have been in touch with me and all said they were hoping John Price was another of your aliases,now you turn up and spoil the allusion
typo, allusion read illusion
Yikes, that woman scares me. I know I get annoyed by my husband but I never thought about killing him and eating him or feeding him to family. Dang, I feel so normal. Thanks, Vest.
Vestie, you're right that definitely puts me off of food!
So how old were the kids? under 10, over 20? Definitely that woman has some anger issues. I'm surprised that the poor man didn't get out of her way, unless he didn't know just how vindictive she was.
Those kids will be in therapy for years and years.....poor things.
Goodness, that is awful. You know, there is just no excuse for that - the killing and everything else. Maybe she did all the extra things so she might be deemed as "insane" and get a lighter sentence?
Oh dear. Ew.
Heyyyyyyyy Vest
we been had
Michele is a guy
tell PUGS too
Saby: you are being rude again, two comments deleted.
Jeanie: Dont worry about her being the cook in the jail, unless you are heading that way.In any case, people in the slammer deserve each other.
Kari: Did it taste that bad? You have returned early from M.
Michelle: Rump steak, same area, taste er slightly different
Saby: Michelle is all female. Saby you have been been sleeping with MITCHEL A Guy, you sordid person.
Bridg: You are right its an acquired taste, Pigmys did it to their captives and so did N Z Maori's.
Notta: Yes, she must have been a NUTTER, I liked the way you spoke about the extra things. I'm surprised the Meat and two Veg was not mentioned in the report, I imagine it would be the first to get the chop.
yeah -- the kiwi maoris and them fuzzy wuzzies in new guinea going back would roast on a spit all the young tender captives in tribal fighting--they called it LONG PIG.
That is realy awful
no need for killings
we need to learn from it
all the best :)

Hello saby AKA Stab you the Elephant Boy and other aliases. If you are not having a lousy day, please do.
It would seem that despite your knowledge of demonic quackery and sorcery; your recent hilarious incantations and efforts to pervert the true course of events have been to no avail, your wailings to the gods of soccer(Assoc Football)have fallen on deaf ears, and so it has come to pass the team you so called rooted for (Portuga) I quote, Got Rooted by the Italion Stallions. BTW,G S.
Saby if you persist in delivering unseemly messages, they will simply end up in the bin.
