AMSTERDAM, Netherlands - A Dutch court sentenced a 29-year-old woman to 10 years in prison and involuntary psychiatric treatment Wednesday, after ruling that she murdered a man she met via the Internet and lured with the promise of sadomasochistic sex.
"While the suspect apparently thought about this often in her fantasies, in the end she made a concrete plan in which she took a random victim to her house under false pretenses and extracted his personal ID codes under threat of a knife," judges at the Arnhem District Court said in their written ruling.
They said the woman, whose name was not released, then stabbed her 50-year-old victim repeatedly while he was handcuffed, including deep cuts to his throat and back.
"The suspect let her victim bleed to death and then removed the handcuffs."
Her lawyers argued the killing was self-defense after the man attacked her with the knife, but judges rejected that.
They noted that she did not have any defensive wounds on her hands, and a single deep wound on her upper arm appeared to be self-inflicted.
Judges said her motive was financial, and she tried to cover up the traces afterward.
Investigators build case against woman
Between the man's death in the mid-afternoon and when she called police in the early evening, she tried unsuccessfully to clean up blood and erase files from her computer.

The world has gone totally crazy. I think she deserved a much longer sentence considering how brutally she killed this man and tried to clean up the crime scene. |

Yes, Goz, I thought the 10-year sentence was incredibly light for this murder! It's funny how liberal the Dutch have become - sometimes I think the more conservative Dutch have left Holland, because most of the ones I've met in Canada are pretty conservative. _________________ "There is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known."
