Miss Switzerland Finalist Murdered and Dismembered by Husband

Kristina Joksimovic, 38, was strangled and her remains dismembered and pureed by her husband, who confessed to the crime.

  • Kristina Joksimovic, a former Miss Switzerland finalist, was found dead in her home in Binningen, Switzerland, in February 2024.
  • Her husband, Thomas, 41, confessed to strangling her, dismembering her body with a jigsaw, knife, and garden shears, and then pureeing her remains in a blender.
  • Thomas claimed self-defense, alleging Kristina attacked him with a knife, but forensic evidence contradicted his account.
  • Investigators noted Thomas's high level of criminal energy, lack of empathy, and cold-bloodedness, with a history of previous domestic violence.
  • The couple had two young daughters, who are now being cared for by authorities, while Thomas remains in custody awaiting formal charges.
