A Taste of Sodom
Report for January 31,
2004
The "gay" cannibal case in Germany is
over. The sodomite cannibal, who has said that he is part of a man-eaters
network, got a grand total of just 8 1/2 years in prison. Perhaps the
sentencing judge decided that it was homophobia which caused the cannibal
to slaughter and eat a human being. His lawyer claimed that loneliness was
the culprit. He didn't explain how eating your friends makes you less
lonely. The sodomite eaten was just one of two hundred German individuals
who answered an ad which solicited men willing to be butchered and eaten
as part of a sexual act. See former Homo-Fascist
Watch postings for the whole story. If this guy was doing the same
things to women, do you think Katie Couric and Company would be talking
about it? Do you realize that there is a growing sadomasochist/bondage
movement in America which is holding seminars and "play parties"
around our nation? Do you think that those folks wouldn't rather be doing
the real thing and will be doing it when they can get away with it? Wake
up, Christians. Read your Bibles; look at your children; and wake up!
Cannibal Should Get Life - Prosecutor
January 26, 2003

The German cannibal who confessed to killing a man he met over the
Internet and eating his flesh should spend life behind bars for murder,
prosecutors said today as they made closing arguments at his trial.
Prosecutor Marcus Koehler said Armin Meiwes, 42, acted simply to
"satisfy a sexual impulse" and filmed himself dismembering the
victim before he ate him so he could "admire himself as a human
butcher."
Meiwes, Koehler said, considered eating his victim as a kind of twisted
"communion."
Defence lawyer Harald Ermel argued that the death was "homicide on
demand" - a form of mercy killing - because the victim had given his
consent to be killed and eaten. That would carry a maximum five year
prison sentence.
When his trial opened in the central city of Kassel last month, Meiwes
confessed in detail to the killing of 43-year-old Bernd Juergen Brandes at
his home in the nearby town of Rotenburg.
Brandes, who had travelled from Berlin after answering Meiwes' Internet
postings, wanted to be stabbed to death after drinking a bottle of cold
medicine to lose consciousness, Meiwes testified.
A grisly video he made of the act was shown to the court in a closed
session during the trial. A doctor testified that Brandes died from loss
of blood and that the medication, along with a half-bottle of liquor and
20 sleeping pills he took beforehand, could not have lessened his pain.
Several experts have testified that Meiwes was fit to stand trial and was
not mentally ill.
Police tracked down and arrested Meiwes after a student in Austria alerted
them to a message Meiwes had posted on the Internet seeking a man willing
to be killed and eaten.
A verdict in the trial is expected on Friday.
Cannibal Convicted of Manslaughter

One of the most sensational trials in German legal history ended on Friday
when judges convicted self-confessed cannibal, Armin Meiwes, to eight
years and six months in prison.
The trial that has riveted Germany and the rest of the world for the past
two months reached its culmination in a Kassel courtroom on Friday. Armin
Meiwes, accused of killing a 43-year-old computer specialist from Berlin,
eating his genitalia, and then freezing the rest of his body to consume in
later repasts, was convicted of manslaughter. He will spend eight years
and six months in prison.
State prosecutors, who had been pushing for a life sentence on a charge of
murder motivated by sexual urges, failed to make their case.
The defense lawyer, Harald Ermel had argued on Thursday that his client,
known as the "cannibal of Rotenburg", should get off lightly
because his victim had been willing to die and be eaten.
Ermel had said that the cannibal could only be prosecuted on a charge of
assisted suicide, which would carry a maximum prison term of five years.
His victim, identified in the case only as Bernd-Juergen B., volunteered
to be killed after answering an Internet ad placed by 42-year-old
Meiwes seeking "young men for real slaughter and consumption."
Complicated legal case
The case had been complicated by the fact that the victim had explicitly
expressed the wish to die. During the trial Meiwes' lawyer cited emails in
which the victim insisted on being killed and eaten. "There's
absolutely no way back for me, only forwards, through your teeth,"
one read. Meiwes' video of the killing, which made for chilling viewing
inside the courtroom, has convinced prosecutors that Bernd Juergen B.'s
death was voluntary.
The video shows Meiwes slaughtering his victim in a scene straight out of
the "Texas Chainsaw Massacre," complete with meat hooks, a cage
and a butcher's table.
Professor Arthur Kreuzer told Reuters news agency that the case was bound
to make legal history. "It is unique that we are leveling the
severest charge of murder against someone and yet have to admit that the
victim, whether disturbed or not, wanted it. The killer sought out his
victim and the victim sought out his killer," he said.
A "human butcher"
But prosecutor Marcus Koehler said this week that Meiwes had been aware
that his victim was suffering from a serious personality disorder and was
unable to think rationally.
"The desire to slaughter a man and eat him up was the paramount
motive for his action," Koehler said. "He slaughtered his victim
like a piece of livestock and treated him as an object of fancy."
Koehler added that the trial had proven that Meiwes murdered his victim or
his sexual gratification and to fulfill his cannibalistic yearnings.
According to Koehler, Meiwes later used his video for sexual satisfaction
and to admire his work as a "human butcher."
Meiwes: "I had my big kick"
Meiwes, who remained calm and collected throughout the trial, said he is
writing a book on how he came to live his ultimate fantasy.
A psychiatrist testifying in the case last week described Meiwes as fit to
stand trial. "There's no evidence of a psychological disorder,"
said George Stolpmann. He added that the 42-year-old had a "schizoid
personality" and has problems forming relationships. "What we
have here is an inability to have warm and tender feelings toward
others," he said.
In December, Meiwes said he was not acting out of sexual desire when he
killed Bernd-Juergen B., but rather out of loneliness and the desire for
the brother he never had. I wanted "someone to be part of me,"
he told the court.
This week Meiwes told the court he regretted the deed and would not repeat
it. "I had my big kick and don't need to do this any more," he
said.
