'Ice lady' gets life sentence for murders of husband, lover (msn.com)
much more at link aboveVIENNA - An ice-cream parlour owner dubbed the "ice lady" for the calculated way in which she killed her ex-husband and lover was sentenced to life in a secure mental institution on Thursday.
Estibaliz Carranza, 34, had confessed to shooting the two men at close range in the back of the head, cutting up their bodies with a chainsaw, freezing them in a deep freeze and later interring them in concrete under the cellar of her store.

The photogenic Mexican-Spanish immigrant, whose case has attracted extensive interest from Austrian media, shot dead her German ex-husband Holger Holz with a .22-calibre Beretta pistol in 2008 as he sat as his computer.
Carranza said he had completely changed after their wedding, turning verbally abusive, lazy and joining a Hare Krishna sect. She complained that he had refused to move out when she had a new lover, even after their divorce.
The new lover, ice-cream machine salesman Manfred Hinterberger, suffered the same fate two years later, receiving four shots in the back of the head as he lay in bed snoring after she had tried to start a discussion about his infidelity.
Carranza had taken courses in shooting and concrete-mixing before the killings, the court heard this week, and joked with a friend about her murder fantasies.
