USA: EVIL SUPERFAN

Regan Jolley, 33, had only been dating Jason Hart, 28, for a matter of weeks before he strangled her.

The couple from Washington, USA, had met in rehab, both fighting drug addiction, before moving in together.

But, according to neighbours, theirs was a volatile relationship – and it was during a row that Hart lost his temper.

In June 2013, he killed Regan. Then, desperate to conceal the evidence, he dumped her body in a tub in the garage. 

Next, he filled it with a weak acid in an attempt to dissolve her corpse.

Hart warned his housemate not to enter the garage.

‘You won’t like what’s in there,’ he’s reported to have said.

Curious, his housemate went in anyway. And, when he found the partially dissolved body, he called the police.

Hart was arrested, and claimed he was suffering from post traumatic stress disorder. He also admitted to using drugs.
