Tatted-up Florida man accused of threatening ex with gory details about how he would decapitate her
A heavily inked Florida man was arrested at a gym last week for allegedly repeatedly harassing his ex-girlfriend and sending her violent threats — including vowing to 'decapitate you and hang your head on the balcony' after their short-lived relationship fizzled out. Christian Jesus Arias Acosta, 26, faces a domestic violence charge for one count of written threat to kill or inflict bodily injury, according to Miami-Dade court records obtained by Law&Crime. Christian Jesus Arias Acosta was arrested after he allegedly threatened to decapitate his ex-girlfriend. Miami-Dade Corrections and Rehabilitation Advertisement Arias Acosta, whose tattooed face, head and neck are visible in his mug shot, and his unidentified flame were together just five months before he flipped his lid after their separation, police said. His threats weren't graphic at first, but were still enough to scare the victim into pleading for mercy while he tried to cajole her into meeting up with him. 'And if I don't let you see me, you won't stop bothering me? Christian, please stop,' she begged. Advertisement 'No, never — until you die,' Arias Acosta allegedly responded. He continued to leave disturbing messages outlining even gorier plans. 'I am going to explain to you how I will decapitate you and hang your head on the balcony of your house,' Arias Acosta threatened, according to the police report. The victim, genuinely fearing for her life, turned over all evidence she had to the authorities — including Arias Acosta's iPhone location, which he hadn't stopped sharing with her after their split. Advertisement Authorities tracked him to a Miami gym and collared him while he was working out. Arias Acosta allegedly waived his Miranda rights and quickly confessed to some other details concerning his prior romantic relationships, but authorities didn't elaborate. Christian Jesus Arias Acosta was nabbed after his ex shared his location tracking information with authorities. Miami-Dade Corrections and Rehabilitation He's far from the first spurned lover to turn to sadistic means to exact revenge. Advertisement One hairstylist in New Jersey snapped and hired a hitman to kill her ex-boyfriend, who was a police officer, and his daughter. She placed a bounty on the two with a $12,000 tag for the unsuspecting father-daughter duo. One man butchered his ex-girlfriend in Manhattan but was caught after she told the people who tried to save her life, 'Ty did this' with her dying breath.

Model lured accused rapist to woods and executed him then got a tattoo
Chelsea Perkins, who goes by the performance name of Sabrina Savage, pleaded guilty to murdering the man she accused of raping her. After shooting him, she then drove to get a tattoo An OnlyFans model and vet lured her alleged rapist to the woods, executed him and then went to get a tattoo. Chelsea Perkins pleaded guilty to murdering Matthew Dunmire, 31, in Cleveland, US. Horrified hikers found his body which had a single gunshot wound to the back of the head. The FBI said he'd gone out with friends to a bar shortly before the discovery and told pals he was going to meet a women for the weekend. Perkins reportedly showed up in a white car belonging to her husband, before the duo drove to an Airbnb she rented with a credit card. They then drove to a park on the morning of March 6, 2021, which is when hikers heard a gunshot before other hikers came across Perkins. This followed her rape allegation against Dunmire that police dropped because of insufficient evidence, according to reports. Perkins, who goes by the name Sabrina Savage, was walking and appeared to the lost, reports Law&Crime. But the hikers were baffled at her lack of knee-high boots and hiking gear. Incredibly, she then drove to a tattoo parlour following the murder. Now, four years later, Perkins will face sentencing on September 9. She faces between 20 and 25 years behind bars. Earlier this month, it emerged an OnlyFans model who was feared to have been kidnapped into sexual slavery and later found badly injured had been 'tortured by Russians'. The 20-year-old from Ukraine was discovered on a roadside in Dubai with a broken spine and limbs. She had been in a coma after she was found close to death having 'fallen from a height'. Initial reports alleged the model had attended a so-called Porta Potty event at which female social influencers and models can be paid huge sums to be subjected to extreme and degrading abuse. But now a source close to the Ukrainian model has insisted that she was abused by unidentified Russians in the UAE - and not local citizens - before she was discovered in March. The source also denied multiple reports that the model had left Dubai and was convalescing in Ukraine. 'We are in Dubai,' said the source. 'And it was Russian citizens who tortured (the model). UAE citizens have nothing to do with it. That's all I can say for now.' The Onlyfans model is 'getting better' but remains under treatment for her horrific ordeal. 'She is getting better, thank you,' said the source, who said they 'hoped' local police were investigating the 'Russians' who 'tortured' her, and also condemned 'false' reporting about her case. Dubai police are known to be investigating the woman's horror ordeal, and a Ukrainian criminal case was opened into 'human trafficking'. The new account comes after multiple Ukrainian and Russian reports said she had been abused after attending a party in Dubai.
