Danish inventor Peter Madsen was handed a life sentence without parole on Wednesday for the gruesome murder of Danish journalist Kim Wall last year on his submarine, where he mutilated her and tossed her body parts into the ocean. Madsen plotted to kill Wall either by suffocation or by slitting her throat, prosecutors said, and his vessel was equipped with tools to torture her. Additionally, he had threatened to torture and kill another woman aboard the submarine, according to text messages that the legal team uncovered. Wall went missing after boarding Madsen’s submarine on Aug. 10. The submarine sank the next day and Madsen was rescued, but Wall was missing.
