CHEF CUT UP PAL ‘LIKE A JOINT OF MEAT’
Drug killer left remains in bathroom as he’d missed the binmen
A FORMER chef who dismembered a man in his bathroom didn’t get rid of the evidence because he missed the binmen coming round, a trial has heard.
After admitting the horror killing, Khanh Xuan Pham ranted to cops about their ‘protection’ of paedophiles.
“Why is there the protection of police for these maggots,” Pham said.
“Give me some paedophiles to kill, f*** me dead, mate.”
The January 2019 interview with officers came hours after his arrest for the alleged murder of Goran Stefanovic.
The 40-year-old’s decomposing remains were discovered in the bathroom of Pham’s studio apartment on January 12 by the killer’s mother, who alerted police.
Stabbed
Pham, 40, is facing a New South Wales Supreme Court murder trial after prosecutors did not accept his plea of guilty to manslaughter.
Agreed facts state that on January 8, Pham stabbed his victim once in the back inside the unit before following his victim to the building’s entrance and stabbing the collapsed man in the heart.
Mr Stefanovic had met up with Pham to buy crystal meth and was sitting on the killer’s bed when he was stabbed.
Pham said he felt “nothing” as he stabbed Mr Stefanovic and later dismembered him.
He also claimed his victim would have “done it to me so I do it to him – that’s how it felt”.
The flesh – placed in bags in the bathroom – wasn’t removed from his flat as “I missed bin night”, Pham said.
“I was a chef. It’s the same, all the joints, the meat,” he said.
“We’re all made the same – animals and people.”
Asked if he enjoyed cutting off the dead man’s ear with a sharp knife, Pham began ranting that ‘rapist pricks’ will never change and that police should allow paedophiles to be beaten up by members of the public.
The trial continues.
