Shocking: Depraved Josef Cupori, 24, brutally attacked his mother Anna Cuporiova, 43, after she told him she was moving out of the flat which the pair shared
A deranged son battered his mother to death with a metal fireguard before slitting her throat and stashing her body in a wheelie bin outside their home.
Depraved Josef Cupori, 24, brutally attacked his mother Anna Cuporiova, 43, after she told him she was moving out of the flat which the pair shared.
Cupori flew into a rage and viciously punched his mother before bludgeoning her over the head with a fireguard because he did not want to look after himself.
After slitting her throat while she was unconscious, jobless Cupori put a bin bag over his mother’s head before rolling her body up in a rug and stuffing it in a wheelie bin.
Stafford Crown Court heard Cupori then returned to the lounge to clean up her blood before fleeing their home, in Stoke-on-Trent, in his mother’s car.
When his brother Robin returned home he discovered the body. Police were called and Cupori was later arrested in Lancaster.
Cupori admitted the killing but denied murder on the grounds of diminished responsibility but he was today found guilty of murder following a two week trial.
Detective Inspector Glyn Pattinson, from Staffordshire Police, said after the case: 'I welcome today’s conviction.
'This was a vicious, unprovoked attack on a defenceless woman who sadly lost her life.
'Cupori’s relationship with his mother had deteriorated but there was no prior warning he would kill her.
'He then attempted to hide her body in his bedroom, but was disturbed and fled the scene.
'This was an act of random violence which ended in tragedy.'
In a statement issued by police, Ms Cuporiova’s family said the court case had been extremely stressful.
During the trial the jury was told Ms Cuporiova was planning to move out with her partner and daughter from their home leaving Cupori and Robin to live on their own.
Andrew Lockhart QC, prosecuting, said: 'The accused was very, very angry with his mother.
Issue: During the trial the jury was told Ms Cuporiova was planning to move out with her partner and daughter. Cupori reacted to this news
'She was looking to move out and set up home elsewhere, leaving him and his brother to fend for themselves.
'This would have involved the withdrawal of the care that might be expected of a mother, such as cooking, but more importantly these two brothers would have been expected to make enough money to survive.
'He found himself alone at the house when his mother came back from viewing a property where she might live.
'He chose to vent his anger on her.
'He struck her to the head many times with his fists, then with a metal fireguard, striking her again and again to the back of the head.
'From then, most likely when she was unconscious, he cut her throat with a knife and she bled to death.
'He then rolled his mother in a rug and dragged her from the lounge to his downstairs bedroom.
'There, he put a bin bag over her head and stuffed her in a wheelie bin.
'The overwhelming evidence is that she returned home elated that she was moving out, he didn’t like it, so he decided to attack her.'
The case was adjourned for sentencing at a date yet to be fixed.
