J.* (†38) gibt es neue Details. Beim Tötungsdelikt vom 13 Februar 2024 in Binningen BL soll der mutmassliche Täter seine Ehefrau erwürgt und die Leiche anschliessend zerkleinert haben Nach dem aktuellen Untersuchungsstand bestehen bei ihm «konkrete Anhaltspunkte für eine psychische Erkrankung» Das geht aus einem am Mittwoch veröffentlichten Urteil des Bundesgerichts in Lausanne hervor Dabei weist das Bundesgericht eine Beschwerde des Beschuldigten ab. Dieser hatte beim Zwangsmassnahmengericht Basel-Landschaft ein Haftentlassungsgesuch gestellt. Nach einer negativen Antwort ging er weiter ans Kantonsgericht, das seine Beschwerde ablehnte, und schliesslich vor Bundesgericht seine Frau tot aufgefunden und «in Panik» in der Waschküche zerstückelt zu haben wie es im Urteil des Bundesgerichts heisst Das medizinisch-forensische Gutachten spreche jedoch gegen seine Darstellung einer Notwehr Die Leiche wurde gemäss Obduktionsbericht in der Waschküche mit Stichsäge Anschliessend wurden mehrere Körperteile mit einem Stabmixer zerkleinert «püriert» und in einer Chemikalie aufgelöst Nach den bisherigen Ermittlungen hat der mutmassliche Täter eine «auffällig hohe kriminelle Energie Empathielosigkeit und Kaltblütigkeit nach der Tötung seiner Ehefrau» an den Tag gelegt und versucht dass er schon vor dem Tötungsdelikt seine Frau gewürgt hat Die Todesnachricht sorgte in der Schweizer Model-Welt im Februar für grosse Trauer.
