Stefania was stabbed 189 times in the 'envious drug-filled rage attack' in 2016  
Elizaveta denies murder and is set to accuse Stefania's lover Alexey Fateev, 44
A woman is to face trial for the brutal murder of her 17-year-old model sister whose eyes were gouged out and ears hacked off.

Stefania Dubrovina was stabbed 189 times in a frenzied attack in the Russian city St Petersburg.
Her sister Elizaveta, 22, is accused of hacking the model to death in an 'envious' drug-filled rage, and faces up to 25 years in jail if convicted.

Elizaveta was detained for the horrific killing in 2016 but was sent for psychiatric treatment.She is now deemed fit to face trial which is due to start soon.

She strongly denies the murder charge and new reports say she will instead accuse the dead girl's 'lover' Alexey Fateev, now 44, in whose flat her sister died.

However, the prosecuting authorities say the man is a witness and not under any suspicion.

Elizaveta, aged 19 at the time of the killing, is charged with 'murder with particular cruelty'.

Fateev has denied on Russian TV that he had anything to do with Stefania's death.

He told how he found Stefania's massacred naked body after returning from a shop where he bought wine.

He detained Elizaveta to stop her fleeing before handing her over to police, he said.In a court statement prosecutors said that the sister 'acted with particular cruelty' in gouging out Stefania's eyes.

They said: 'She scoffed at her sister, causing her to endure excruciating pain because of her dislike.

'During the massacre, she inflicted at least 189 stabs on her sister - in the head, neck, torso, arms and legs.
The girl also sliced off her sister's ears.'

At the time of the killing, newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda citing law enforcement sources reported that Stefania's body was 'almost ruined by cutting performed by the girl's elder sister'In an interview with the same newspaper, the girls' mother Oksana Dubrovina said Elizaveta has now recovered her memory of events and her daughter claimed the man acted as a 'demon'.

She alleged Fateev and Stefania were lovers and that he was jealous over the nude photographs.

Ms Dubrovina added: 'And to put it mildly, Stefania was not loyal to him…'

On a TV show in 2017 she physically attacked Fateev and scratched his face.

St Petersburg showman Stas Baretsky, 45, said: 'I had known Stefania for about two years.She was a modest and attractive girl, she took part in my shows.'

He insisted that rumours she worked as an escort girl were untrue.

He said: 'Stefania was never involved in it. 'She was not filmed in porn film either. She simply tried to boost her career in modelling.'

A newspaper report said Elizaveta 'copied the image of her younger sister - the same hair colour, the same lipstick'.

'There are photographs of both sisters hugging each other but there is no doubt that the elder sister envied the younger one.'

Both the sisters had spent time in orphanages as children.

Their aunt Ekaterina Dubrovina called Stefania's death a 'shocking tragedy'.

She said: 'My blood turns to ice

Women’s work in the home – then and now

Image
Women’s work in the home – then and now In many ways, Swedish industrialisation began in the home. Women spun, wove and sewed clothes for payment in between their daily agricultural tasks, food  preparation and childcare. But didn’t all industrial production gradually move into the factories? ‟No, it didn’t. That is a  common misconception,” says economic historian Malin Nilsson, who is researching paid home industry work. ‟That is an oversimplified description of history, as there were many parallel processes going on at once, and in fact home industry work still exists today”, says Malin Nilsson, researcher in economic history at the Lund University School of Economics and Management. Nowadays, we may not find quite so much home industry work specifically in Sweden but, altogether, there are at least 60 million home industry workers globally (and just over 200 million more home workers who do not have industrial occupations). ‟This is a cheap and flexible workforce and for m...

Sarah Silbiger/Bloomberg via Getty Images Popular culture tends to focus on a few elements of pregnancy: morning sickness, the growing baby bump, and, of course, mood swings. But that ignores more dangerous, less well-known conditions associated with pregnancy. Up to 10 percent of pregnant US women are diagnosed with gestational diabetes and uncontrolled high blood sugar; untreated, this can result in a difficult delivery, and risks developing into Type 2 diabetes years later. Meanwhile, 2 to 8 percent of women worldwide have symptoms of preeclampsia, a condition involving high blood pressure that can lead to fatal seizures if untreated, can damage the mother’s organs, and increases the risk of chronic disease later in life for the baby. But even a supposedly normal, healthy pregnancy with no complications can lead to a lot more than just morning nausea. And the ordeal isn’t ove...

The colony of **Jamaica gained independence** **from Britain** on 6 August 1962. In Jamaica, this date is celebrated as Independence Day, a national holiday. The island became a Spanish colony in 1509. The Spanish carried out ethnic cleansing operations against the indigenous Taino people. In 1655, British forces took the island and it became a British colony.  The British brought many thousands of slaves from Africa and forced them to work on British plantations in Jamaica. Over the years, some slaves escaped and joined the Taino in the mountains, forming a society which the British called “Maroons”. The Maroons won a war against the British (1728–1740), but lost a second war (1795–1796). In 1834, slavery was abolished, although life for the 300,000 Jamaican slaves changed very little as the British still held all the land, wealth, power and privileges. In the late 19th and early 20th century, the economy was changing; sugar declined and the banana trade grew. Many old sugar plant...

The town that murdered their bully, 1981 Ken Rex McElroy was a man who lived in Skidmore, Missouri. McElroy was indicted of 21 convictions which consisted of assault, arson, burglary, animal cruelty, sheep and hog rustling and and child abuse by the time he was 47.  McElroy was born in 1934 and was the 15th child to a poor immigrant couple. He dropped out of school at 15 and quickly gained a reputation of being a trouble maker. 21 charges were brought against him, however victims of the crimes often did not pursue legal action after McElroy would stalk, attack and harass them. This led to McElroy avoiding all of these charges except 1.  McElroy fathered 10 children between different women. His last wife, Trena McCloud, was 12 when they met. McElroy abused her repeatedly and she became pregnant at 14. McCloud's parents refused McElroy to marry her. In response, McElroy burned down their family home and shot and killed their family dog.  McElroy married the 14 year old to e...

Desnudas, topless Times Square women, spark debate over street performers

Desnudas, topless Times Square women, spark debate over street performers When the bare breasts come out in Manhattan's carnivalesque Times Square, the reactions never fail. Tourists gawk. Necks crane. Smartphone cameras snap away.  But one response the "painted-lady"  entertainers of New York didn't expect? A debate about whether their semi-nude solicitations for tips might imperil the city's most popular pedestrian thoroughfare. Following an outcry this summer over the women's stark appearances as well as complaints about harassment by costumed characters, Mayor Bill de Blasio recently proposed ripping up the Times Square plazas, which are frequented by an estimated 400,000 pedestrians a day. "It's wrong. It's wrong," de Blasio told CBS News about the thong-wearing models, who, like the area's ubiquitous cartoon mascots, earn tips in exchange for appearing in photos.This situation is going to change. This is what I'll guarantee you,...
