One strange thing is there is no law against cannibalism in the United States, the United Kingdom, and many other countries. Cannibals are charged with a related crime, usually murder - at the very least desecration of a corpse. Why do many cannibals do it? Well, many are loners - by eating their victims they believe they carry that person with them forever. Often this is linked with sexual ecstasy, they are known to orgasm just by cutting into the flesh of their victims - it excites them immensely.

Armin Meiwes
My first story starts with a character not unlike the one from Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho. Armin Meiwes’ father abandoned his family when Armin was eight. His mother was one of those domineering types who never let him go anywhere without her, and would publicly criticize and admonish him.

As an only child with a mother like that (two half-brothers left when he was 6), he ended up without many friends. So he created an imaginary one named Franky with whom he would tell his secrets to, one of which was that he wished he could eat his friends before they left him so they would stay with him forever.

When his mother died in 1999, he was left alone and with a large country house in Germany. He ended up recreating his mother as a mannequin in a room in that house which could only be described as a shrine.

He also became fascinated with internet pornography that showed pain and torture as its theme. This interest led him to the forums of an internet site called the Cannibal Café in 2001. There he left a post saying he was "looking for a well-built 18- to 30-year-old to be slaughtered and then consumed."


Brandes
He got many answers, but only found one to be serious after actually facing the knife. That man was 43 year old Bernd Jurgen Armando Brandes who had placed his own ad looking to be eaten, and they met at Meiwes’ house on March 9th, 2001. The day before Brandes had wrote “I’ll bring myself as breakfast.”

The two had sex, and then talked about computers while drinking some coffee. Brandes thought he couldn’t go through with it and asked to be taken to the train station. But before getting onboard he said that if he had sleeping pills and schnapps he thought that would do the trick.

They went back to the house and into a specially made soundproof killing room. At about 6 p.m. it started and it was all on video. Brandes wanted Meiwes to bite off his penis but Meiwes was unable to with just his teeth, so he used a knife. Both of them tried to eat it raw but it was Brandes who said it was too ”chewy”. Meiwes started to cook it using salt, pepper, wine and garlic and then decided to use some of Brandes’ own fat – but by then it had burned. So Meiwes chopped it to pieces and fed it to his dog.

Brandes was placed in a bath and left to bleed out. Miewes read a Star Trek book for the next 3 hours, checking on Brandes occasionally. Brandes was unconscious, so he stabbed him in the throat, ending his life. He then hung the body on a meat hook and chopped pieces off, placing the flesh into plastic bags that he then labeled and stored in his freezer under some pizza boxes. He even tried to grind the bones to use as flour.

Over the next 10 months he ate 44lbs (20kg) of the body. He was caught when he posted another ad on the forum looking for his next victim and describing in detail what he did to his last victim. Another reader notified the police.

During the trial he defended himself saying that it was a voluntary killing, as seen on the video. Germany didn’t have a law against eating human flesh, so he was tried for murder for the purposes of sexual pleasure and disturbing the peace of the dead. He was initially given 8.5 years, but was retried and sentenced to life. He described the taste of human flesh as like pork, but stronger. He has since become a vegetarian.

Excellent movie about this is 2006 "Cannibal", available on Amazon.
Unlike American "Based on a TRUE STORY!!!" bullshit, this movie follows the crime pretty well, but I do not recommend it for anyone with homophobia.

I’ve read the book about him. It was good. I still find it fucked up that we have no laws on cannibalism.
