A woman has been charged with removing body parts from the corpse of her husband's ex-girlfriend.
Shaynna Sims was initially charged with illegal dissection after police in Tulsa, Oklahoma said she cut the woman's corpse during a viewing at a funeral home.
But authorities now say she also removed both breasts and a toe.
Police spokesman Sergeant Shane Tuell said investigators are baffled as to what prompted her to slash the corpse of her boyfriend’s former partner, who was described as the suspect's "frenemy".
“I was hoping by now this young lady would have talked and given her motivation behind why she did what she did, but apparently she’s keeping that to herself,” he said.
Sim’s victim has been named as mother-of-four Tabatha Nadine Nixon who passed away on April 29. Her children ranged in ages between four and 18-years-old.
Witnesses have told investigators they saw Sims reach into Tabatha's coffin at the Moore Funeral Home Eastlawn Chapel in Tulsa two weeks ago.
Tabatha’s face was cut from her hairline to the tip of her nose, her makeup was smeared and her hair was on the floor, police said. Officers later arrested Sims, 26, at the dead woman’s apartment.
