While it's difficult to imagine how the killer could have left the body in a position that couldn't have appeared 'posed' in some way, considering the nature of the mutilations and how they were performed, it's also impossible for anyone to state categorically that he didn't do any deliberate posing, or wasn't at least aware of the shock value of how she looked when he had finished with her.
The Boston Strangler is a good example of someone who appears to have gone out of his way to pose the victims and give the finder a real eyeful. Robert Napper seems to done something similar with his indoor killing of Samantha Bisset.
Whether or not Mary's killer did pose her deliberately, he certainly had no qualms about stripping her of every last shred of dignity before handing her over to public scrutiny - a bit tough to swallow if he had known the woman personally and had ever had feelings for her apart from utter contempt or cruel indifference. What he did, unless it was a clinical attempt to make a domestic murder look like the work of a sexual sadist, would certainly imply an unhealthy obsession with sex, even conceding that sexual thrills may not have been the purpose, or even on his mind and affecting him physically as he ripped.
