They should get her for the next slap chop commercial:
MELBOURNE, Fla. —
A woman has been arrested and charged with murder after her boyfriend’s dismembered and decomposing body was found in a camper in Melbourne, Florida.
The arrest of Penny Rebecca Pospisil, 47, was announced on Friday by the Sumter County Sheriff’s Office. Investigators said they believe Anthony Franklin Mitchell, 55, was murdered in August in Lake Panasoffkee.
Mitchell’s family told investigators they’d last heard from him in August 2018. Investigators said Mitchell and Pospisil were living together at the Lake Panasoffkee RV Village at the time.
In the following weeks, investigators said Pospisil began telling her family and friends that Mitchell had died.
"She began going around the campground telling people that he had died of natural causes and she had him cremated," said Patrick Breeden of the Sumter County Sheriff's Office, according to WFTV.
A neighbor at the RV park reported a foul odor coming from her camper around the same time, investigators said.
Toward the end of September, Pospisil moved the camper to Wickham Park in Melbourne, investigators said.
The camper had been in the park for three months, since Sept. 29, and had been moved to two or three different sites during its stay. Mitchell’s body was not discovered until the campsite rent expired.
Investigators said the body had been dismembered and was in the advanced stages of decomposition. The cause of death was blunt force trauma.
Pospisil was arrested Friday at a home in Melbourne and is charged with second-degree murder and abuse of a human body. According to WFTV, deputies said Pospisil killed Mitchell, cut his body into pieces, then lived with his remains until she could no longer deal with the smell.
Pospisil said she killed Mitchell in self-defense, claiming she was a victim of domestic violence. However, deputies said they doubted this story because she went to great lengths to hide what she did.
