>Are they implying that they ate her?

They definitely boiled parts of her with carrots/turnips as if they are additions to a soup.

The whole crime is currently all over the news in Hong Kong. I don't think there's anything shocking like this before. She's also a socialite so the attention to that is even greater.

Her mom's devastated right now and any mom would be since she was so brutally murdered and desecrated.
