Former Butcher Kills Neighbour, Cooks Body with Vegetables; Social Media Reacts, ‘What Have I Just Read?’

Philippe Schneider, 69, and Nathalie Caboubassy, 45, face trial in May 2025 for the 2023 murder of their neighbour Georges Meichler in Brasc, France.
The killing occurred during a failed burglary at Meichler's isolated woodland home, which led to him being tied, gagged, beaten, and suffocated according to Schneider’s confession.
Schneider admitted to dismembering Meichler's body, cooking parts in a pot with vegetables as part of a religious ritual to mask odors, and scattering remains on the property and in the victim's van.
Schneider told investigators, "What I’m going to tell you is horrific," and described cooking the body until it "falls off the bone," instructing accomplices to claim it was "food for the dog."
The trial highlights questions of responsibility as Schneider accepts full guilt while Caboubassy denies involvement, and the case has deeply disturbed the local community and victim’s family.
