Australian chef Marcus Volke, who allegedly killed, dismembered and then cooked parts of his transgender wife's body told an electrician that he was cooking pig's broth, Australian media reported on Wednesday.
According to 9News, Volke had called electrician Brad Coyne to report a problem.
In a recording, a man believed to be Volke said: "The stock pot boiled over and dripped down and got into the oven and basically made this big bang and then all my power turned off."
But when Coyne arrived at the apartment Volke shared with his wife, Mayang Prasetyo, Volke told him not to worry about the foul stench and that he was cooking pig's broth.
More details have also emerged about Volke, 28, who killed himself shortly after fleeing from police.
Was the info at the bottom really needed?
