A woman in Argentina who tied up her wealthy sugar daddy during a sex game before stabbing him to death and stealing his money has been sentenced to life in prison.
Paula Romano, 34, stabbed her boyfriend Julio Cesar Vittoria, 62, 24 times while he was naked and tied up in July 2014.
She stole 20,000 ARS (£1,045) from the ice cream shop owner before fleeing the scene in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Vittoria’s body was discovered at a property in the neighbourhood of Flores, in Buenos Aires. On the day of the murder, in July 2014, Romano texted her boyfriend saying she was going to tie him up and that he should be ready for ‘a party’
The businessman was later found dead with a rope around his neck, his hands tied and stab wounds by his horrified son. His body was discovered at a property in the neighbourhood of Flores, in the capital city of Buenos Aires.
Romano was eventually caught by police after a 15-month police investigation, and has now been sentenced to life in prison.
Cesar Vittoria was found dead with a rope around his neck
Prosecutor Carlos Gimenez Bauer said of the crime: ‘Romano started a sex game in which the man was naked and had his hands tied with a rope around his neck.
‘Once he was like this, she stabbed him 24 times and stole the money. She left the place and ran away.’
The couple had started their relationship in 2003, when she was working as a waitress in a bar that her victim owned. But the court in Buenos Aires heard that Romano was only ever interested in Vittoria’s money.
Bauer said: ‘Both had an interest in the relationship: one was economical by the part of Romano and the other was more intimate, for Julio’s part.’
On the day of the murder, Romano lured Vittoria with a text inviting him to ‘party’. His son discovered his dead body covered in stab wounds with a rope around his neck, hands tied
When Vittoria was tied up, Romano stabbed him repeatedly before running away with his cash. He later confessed to having been at the place of the crime but denied taking part in any sex game. In court she said she could not remember what had happened and refused to answer questions.
She told the court: ‘I loved Julio, I do not understand what happened.’
She was convicted and sentenced to life in prison after being found guilty of murder after the court heard she took advantage of the ‘trust’ that Julio had in her.
Crime scene doctors confirmed that the silk ties were not tight enough to completely limit the victim’s movements.
This led investigators to believe that Vittoria entered willingly into a sexual game with someone he trusted, who then took advantage of his vulnerable position.
Court witnesses claim that Romano was ‘addicted to sex’ and in her hospital records she had been diagnosed with a sex-related behaviour disorder.
Doctors said as well as experiencing rage attacks, she had an uncontrollable impulse to be unfaithful and sometimes experienced ‘disgust’ and ‘rejection’ when having sex.
What a dumb beyotch!
