Alexander Nikolayevich Spesivtsev (born March 1, 1970), also referred to as Sasha Spesivtsev, is a Russian serial killer who practised cannibalism on his victims. His crimes were discovered by chance in 1996.

Early life
He was born in the Siberian town of Novokuznetsk, and was raised in an abusive home, with a violent father who tortured the whole family. As an adult, he murdered his girlfriend and was committed to a psychiatric institution, from which he was later released. He subsequently shared a flat with his mother, Ludmilla, and with his Dobermann.

Arrest
In 1996, a pipe breakage forced the neighbours to call a plumber; the problem was determined to be in the Spesivtsev apartment. The plumber had the door opened by force, since no one was answering the knock.

When authorities entered the flat they saw blood covering the walls. In the kitchen there were bowls with pieces of human bodies. In the bathtub they found a mutilated, headless body. Olga Galtseva was found, also mutilated but still alive, on the sofa. She was taken to a hospital, where she was able to tell the public prosecutor about what had happened. She died seventeen hours later.

Spesivtsev's mother had lured three girls into the flat, where he then raped and beat them. He killed one of the girls, and forced the other two to cut her into pieces in the bathtub. The mother cooked her body parts for dinner. The second girl was killed by the Dobermann. Spesivtsev escaped over the balcony when he heard someone opening the door. He was later captured while attempting to rape a woman in her own apartment.

The police found a diary which detailed the murders of 19 girls. Spesivtsev is generally suspected of having been responsible for over a dozen other deaths, but Russian authorities lack the funds to successfully investigate those cases.


Imprisonment
Spesivtsev was declared guilty in all 19 cases and sentenced to death. He was later declared insane and put into a special psychiatric hospital in Kamyshin; Ludmilla Spesivtseva denied any involvement, but was convicted as an accomplice and sentenced to life in prison.

I bet all Russian women have that smell in common, thus no one reported it.

There is additional info in this article from May 2015:

"The "mama's boy" of serial killers. Known as the Siberian Cannibal. Russian, Alexander Spesivtsev, was accused of killing over 80 children and cannibalizing some of his victims. Spesivtsev, committed his crimes with the assistance of his mother. If that wasn't enough, Spesivtsev was sent to a mental institute (twice!), while his mother spent 13 years in prison. Not much is know about Spesivtsev's early life. He was born march 1st, 1970 (some accounts say 1969) in a very abusive home. His father allegedly tortured the entire family. Spesivtsev, would later torture and kill his girlfriend. A crime for which his only punishment was 3 years in a mental institute. After his release, he moved into an apartment with his mother, Lyudmila. Alexander Spesivtsev, took it upon himself to "cleanse the evil that democracy had brought" and decided that homeless children were detrimental to society.

His murder spree began in Siberia in 1991 and lasted until 1996. His mother, Lyudmila, would lure the children into their apartment with her motherly look, where Spesivtsev would torture, rape and kill the children. Later, his mother would cook the victim and they would sit down and have dinner. He began discarding body parts in the Aba river in the summer of 1996. Police began to suspect that there was a serial killer, but since the victims were homeless and children, not a lot of weight was put into the investigation. If police had acted on complaints by Spesivtsev’s neighbors they may have been able to save some of the children. One of Spesivtsev’s neighbors continuously complained to police of the stench coming from the apartment and the incredibly loud rock music. No officer went to investigate or even look up the man in question. Ever. After his arrest, one of Spesivtsev's victims, Olga Galtseva, told prosecutors how Lyumilda lure her and 2 of her friends, 13 year old girls, into the apartment. They were asked to help with grocery bags. The 3 girls were beaten and raped. After the first girl was killed, the remaining 2 had to cut her into pieces in the bathtub. Olga was forced to eat soup made out of one of her friends.

At the time of his arrest, in 1996, Spesovtsev was an unemployed black marketeer living in the Siberian town of Novokuznetsk. A pipe breakage in his apartment forced the neighbors to call a plumber. Since no one ever answered the knock, the door was opened by force. As the police entered, they noticed blood on all walls. Human pieces were found in the kitchen. A mutilated headless body was found in the bathtub. A rib cage in the living room. On the sofa, there was a 15 year old girl, still alive, but with deadly wounds. Olga Galtseva would die a few hours later. Evading police, Spesivtsev escaped through his balcony. He was later captured in a woman's apartment while he tried to rape her. During his interrogation, Mr Spesivtsev, confessed to over 80 murders and during the investigation, authorities found over 82 different pieces of bloody clothing and jewelry. Although suspected of over 80 murders, he was only found guilty in 19 cases. Mainly because he wrote detail descriptions in his diary (of course he had a diary!). Ruled insane by a court. Spesivtsev, now resides in a psychiatric hospital writing poetry and philosophy. His mother was released after 13 years, (even thought she was sentenced to life in prison). To this day, however, she has not uttered a word since her arrest."

I don't remember reading about this one before now.
