A woman has been jailed almost two years after she hacked her boyfriend’s penis off during sex because he had shared their sex tapes with friends.
Brenda Barattini, 28, was found guilty of the attempted murder of Sergio Fernandez, 42, and sentenced to 13 years in prison.
The accountant confessed she had planned the attack on November 25, 2017, but said she had not intended to kill her former lover.
Her trial in Cordoba, Argentina, heard how Barattini cut through 90 per cent of musician Sergio’s penis with garden shears after blindfolding him and performing a sex act on him.
She told the court she had planned to carry out revenge on her then-boyfriend because he had been sharing X-rated pictures and videos of her, claiming he treated her like a ‘trophy’ A jury of four men and four women were told: ‘It violated my privacy, my life and my career.’
The victim said Barattini attacked him after putting a blindfold over his face.

The victim said Barattini attacked him after putting a blindfold over his face.
Two years on, he says his penis and testicles are ow ‘different’ and that he still suffers panic attacks and insomnia. He has a ‘constant fear’ women want to kill him during sex, the court heard.
The jury unanimously convicted Barattini before three judges decided the final sentence.
She is expected to appeal the sentence at a later date, with defence lawyer Lucas de Olmos claiming the decision was ‘unheard of’ in Argentina.
The lawyer said: ‘No-one has ever been convicted in this country of attempted murder for a penis wound.’
