Minnesota woman found beheaded on sidewalk

[Zorro]

Police have a suspect in custody after a beheaded woman was found dead on a Shakopee, Minnesota, sidewalk in the middle of the afternoon on Wednesday.

Officers with the Shakopee Police Department responded to a stabbing report just after 2:30 p.m. local time and found 55-year-old America Mafalda Thayer's body near a downtown intersection, police said.

A search warrant application disclosed that when police arrived, officers discovered the victim's headless body, according to local reports. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police subsequently arrested 42-year-old Alexis Saborit for suspected second-degree murder and found a knife and a sheath nearby. Saborit is being held in jail on pending charges.

2. "She was pronounced dead at the scene."

Do they want to go out on a limb like that?

Kind of goes without saying.

7. Throw the book at him and may he never set foot outside of prison again

Police also said investigators do not believe the killing was a random act, and a coworker said Thayer and the suspect were in a long-term relationship that involved domestic abuse. The suspect was previously convicted of domestic assault.

RIP America Mafalda Thayer

8. Minnesota woman found beheaded on sidewalk

Because apparently she once worked at MyPillow, the conspiracy theories were flowing last night on Twitter.

At least one MAGAt was convinced that this poor woman was killed by the “Deep State” to teach Lindell a lesson 🙄.

12. My son was telling me in Minneapolis a couple blocks from him they found body parts in different

areas a couple weeks ago.

13. Second Degree?

WTF would it take to be First Degree? Minnesota is bizarre. Same thing with George Floyd.

[Disaffected]

15. It has to be

premeditated murder for 1st degree (and proven such in court which is not always doable).
