Lots of black

Canada -- The Crown has presented its opening statement at the trial of a Kelowna woman charged with the first-degree murder of her husband who disappeared eight years ago.

Ronda Petra Black, 39, is accused of stabbing respected taekwondo instructor Keith Black to death while he slept in July 1998.

Crown counsel Norm Yates told the court that Ronda Black, herself a taekwondo black belt, then wrapped his body in a tarp and drove from Kelowna to Exshaw Alberta.

There, Yates alleges she got the help of another black belt instructor, Howard Steadman, to cut off Black's head and hands and dispose of his body.
