A loved-up Scottish woman who moved to California to marry a man she met on Twitter was allegedly chopped up by him soon after having their first child.
The remains of June Bunyan, 37, were found in her Los Feliz apartment after her husband, Jonathan Renteria, 25, attempted suicide in a Ventura County hotel on Sept. 11 — and allegedly left a note revealing that he had murdered his wife, according to KCAL
The new mom’s decomposed and dismembered body was then found in their home during a welfare check, a week after she was murdered, according to authorities.
“I saw her being carried out in multiple body bags,” neighbor Arielle Miller told KTLA.
“The first body bag that came down … I said that’s not all of her. And then came another bag and that’s when I knew that she was not in one piece.”
Renteria, who survived the suicide attempt, was arrested and charged with her murder and the mutilation of her body, according to the Los Angeles Police Department. His wife’s cause of death was traumatic neck injuries.
Bunyan had moved to the US around 18 months ago, with the dream of becoming an attorney to help the most vulnerable. She married Renteria soon after arriving in the US, and recently gave birth to their first child, a baby girl, who was found unharmed.
But that only ramped up her husband’s alleged abuse, with him making cruel comments about her gaining weight during pregnancy, the pals claimed.
Bunyan recently told friends she no longer felt she could “depend on” her husband — and had “never seen him so nasty before,” according to Miller, the neighbor.
“She was trying to leave, and that’s when he killed her,” Miller alleged.
“June was loved by so many people, and she didn’t deserve the way that she was disrespected, and she deserves dignity in death,” Miller said.
A GoFundMe has been set up by Bunyan’s family to fly her remains back to her native Scotland.
Her husband remains in custody on $4 million bail and is due in court Nov. 18, KTLA said.
