Sulfuric acid or death: 10 dead and mutilated beauty queens

We represent the most sad and tragic stories of beauty queens. Not for the faint of heart!

These girls were young, beautiful, they were waiting for brilliant prospects. But the evil rock in one bold stroke all crossed out ...

Jessica Notaro, "Miss Romagna-2007"

One of these days in Italy there was a monstrous crime. 28-year-old Jessica Notaro, who won the regional beauty contest "Miss Romagna" in 2007, was brutally attacked by her ex-boyfriend, Edson Tavares of Cape Verde.

A man watched the girl near the house and splashed it with sulfuric acid, disfiguring her face . The reason for this inhuman act was the reluctance of the ex-boyfriend to reconcile with the fact that Jessica no longer wants to meet with him. Apparently, the guy decided to disfigure his beloved, acting on the principle "Do not get you anybody!"

Now Jessica is in a serious condition in the hospital. There is a danger that the girl will lose her sight.

Eleonora Kondratyuk, "Miss Sochi - 1998"

Another brutal attack on the beauty queen occurred in 1999, not far from Sochi. 17-year-old beauty Eleonora Kondratyuk received the title "Miss Sochi-99" and was preparing to participate in the contest "Miss Russia-99". The girl was full of bright hopes and plans for the future. She could not imagine what a wicked joke her beauty would play with her ...

Elia, indeed, was very beautiful: tall, slender, with magnificent blond hair. Her appearance attracted the local criminal "authority", one-eyed Caucasian Ruben Grigorian. He began to insist on caring for the beauty: he told her about how he saved girls from rapists and defeated entire gangs. But these tales did not impress El's, she did not want to "twist love" with the bandit.

The refusal hit painfully on Grigoryan's bloated vanity, and the Caucasian decided to take revenge. He prepared for a punitive operation for a very long time, and hired two crooks to commit a crime.

The attack occurred on September 2, 1999 in the village of Dagomys, in the schoolyard, through which Elia went for a walk to the sea. One of the performers jumped to the girl and grabbed her by the hair, and the second poured a half-liter of acid into her face. Alya screamed, and acid poured into her mouth, burning the esophagus, stomach and respiratory tract.

Almost blind, with a bloody mush in place of a face, the beauty queen reached the school and called for help. Appeared teachers hardly recognized in the disfigured girl their former apprentice.

Doctors fought desperately for the life of Eleanor. She was given more than 300 surgeries, but she did not manage to return to normal life: she now prefers not to appear in public and lives as a recluse.

The customer and the perpetrators of the crime were detained and received terms. During the detention Grigoryan said that Eleanor herself was to blame, they say, she behaved with him "like Claudia Schiffer any". The investigation managed to find out how sophisticated the customer was preparing for the crime: he himself experienced the effect of acid, applying small doses to himself and anticipating the torment to which his victim would be subjected. In the poisonous liquid, the monster added oil to make it more difficult to wash it off ...

Johnbenet Ramsey, "Little Miss Colorado", "Tiny Beauty of the Nation"

On December 25, 1996, one of the most monstrous and mysterious crimes of the 20th century occurred. On Christmas Eve, six-year-old Johnbenet Ramsey, the winner of numerous American beauty contests, was killed.

In the evening of December 25, Johnbenet returned home with her parents and brother from a Christmas party. At 22.00 the father laid the girl to sleep in her room. In the morning the mother went to wake her daughter, but the bed of Johnbenet was empty. On the stairs, the woman found a note in which it was written that the girl was kidnapped and for her release it is necessary to pay a ransom of 118 thousand dollars.

Parents called the police. When looking at the house was found a terrible find: in the basement lay the lifeless body of Johnbenet, wrapped in a blanket. The examination found that the girl was first struck with something heavy on the head, and then strangled.

The murder of Johnbenet has not yet been solved. For a long time, the members of the Ramsey family were under suspicion, and the police had every reason to suspect them. For example, during the handwriting examination, the mother of Johnbenet deliberately changed the handwriting for some reason. Parents claimed that before the bed, she was stripped of the girl and disbanded her hair, although Johnbenet was found in a festive dress and with braided hair. So they lied? But why?

In 2008, suspicions from parents were dropped after the DNA analysis revealed that the blood found on Johnbenet's clothes does not belong to any of the members of the Ramsey family. The investigators began to seriously consider the version that the killer was an extraneous person who had penetrated the house.

At the moment, the criminal was not found. In 2016, the US filmed the film "Who killed Johnbenet?" In it, the actress on behalf of the murdered girl says:

"I was a little Miss Colorado. At this Christmas I would be 26 years old - but for all I will always be six "

After a long absence of his wife, John rose after her and found a terrible sight: Mikaela's lifeless body lay in the bathroom.

On suspicion of murder, employees of the hotel were detained. According to investigators, they wanted to rob a number, but suddenly appeared Mikaela prevented their plans, and in fright they strangled her.

Svetlana Kruchinkina

A month before Sveta's death, on May 15, 15-year-old Anya Mezina, the winner of the Miss Temnikov contest, was killed. The mutilated body of the girl was found in a ravine 200 meters from her house. The examination found that she was inflicted 20 strokes with some sharp object (this could be a penknife or a nail file). After the murder, Anya was still alive for 10 hours ... But when she was found, she had already died from the loss of blood and hypothermia. Ani's gold jewelry remained untouched, but her bag disappeared, in which there was nothing of value except for the gilded suspension - the prize for the first place in the beauty contest, in which she took part only two weeks ago. To this contest, the girl prepared very carefully: she chose clothes and jewelry for a long time, learned a musical play, embroidered a cross ...

The murder of Ani has not yet been solved. Three versions were considered: robbery, the revenge of one of the competitors in a beauty contest and a quarrel, which turned into a fight. None of them has been confirmed. There is a suspicion that the girl was involved in the murder - in the hand the deceased squeezed a clump of long hair.
