Jolanta Bledaite (died March or April 2008) was a Lithuanian woman whose body parts were found on a beach near Arbroath, Scotland. She died at age 35, and two Lithuanian men aged 19 and 40 have been arrested in connection with the murder. She was working in Scotland to help pay for her father's medical treatment, because he had cancer (although not necessarily for a 'better life', because Lithuania is not like a third world country and she was doing a low paid job in Scotland which couldn't have been fun).
Her head was found by two small girls, who told their mother who contacted the police. The police then began a search of the beach area for more body parts, and they found her hands. It appeared that she had been dismembered. The death shocked the local community and had media coverage on a national scale.
