Butcher Confesses 15 Years After Gruesome Murder
10 Feb
Summary
- A butcher confessed to murdering her girlfriend 15 years after the crime.
- The victim's body was dismembered and buried in the garden under concrete.
- The confession came after years of guilt and a journalist's inquiry.
In August 2010, Izabela Zablocka's family in Poland lost contact with her, reporting her missing in the UK where she lived with her partner, Anna Podedworna. Podedworna, a butcher, initially claimed Zablocka had left after an altercation.
Fifteen years later, in 2025, Podedworna contacted authorities via email, admitting Zablocka was not missing but deceased and buried in their garden. This confession followed years of mounting guilt, exacerbated by a journalist's interest in the disappearance.
Police discovered Zablocka's body in the garden, buried under concrete. Investigations revealed she had been dismembered, her body cut into pieces and wrapped in electrical tape, similar to how a butcher would prepare carcasses. Podedworna testified that the killing occurred during a violent altercation, which she described as self-defense.
