Man Murders Pregnant Girlfriend, Chops And Feeds Her Body To Vultures

A 32-year-old Spanish butcher Jose
Miguel Tamayo has been arrested for
allegedly killing his pregnant girlfriend
and then chopping up her body in bite
sized pieces to feed to wild vultures.
Police believe Jose Miguel murdered his
30-year-old girlfriend, Carolina Bernal
Gomez after discovering she was
pregnant.
Her remains are believed to have been
fed to the birds at the only nature
reserve in Europe which is home to wild
vultures north of Madrid.
Officers also claimed that the couple's
relationship had been strained for quite
a while and the butcher is thought to
have physically assaulted his girlfriend
when he found out about her baby and
when he realised he had killed her, he
allegedly butchered her body into bite-
sized pieces to hide any evidence of the
crime.
Police were suspicious because Jose
Miguel waited several weeks before he
declared she was missing and when he
was interviewed by officers, he gave
contradictory statements about their
relationship and her absence.
Juan Pablo Herranz, the deputy minister
of Guadalajara said, ‘The victim had not
lodged any complaint of ill-treatment at
any time. It seems as if it was a spur of
the moment killing.’
Vultures are known for being able to
sniff out dead flesh from up to a mile
away, though most birds have no sense
of smell.
The creatures are able to detect
sulphurous chemical compounds found
in decaying meat from their sky vantage
point, and tend to circle around towards
the ground until they have sourced the
origin of the scent.
