ORIGINAL: EvilGeoff Vore is purely fantasy... No there is this most infamous case...(from Wiki) which was also made into an insightful television programme shown on British TV about two months ago: Armin Meiwes (born December 1, 1961) is a German who achieved international notoriety for killing and eating a voluntary victim he had found via the Internet. After jointly attempting to eat the detached penis, Meiwes killed his victim, and continued to eat a large amount of his flesh. Because of his deeds, Meiwes is also known as the "Rotenburg Cannibal" or "Metzgermeister" (The Master Butcher). Armin posted an advertisement on the Internet, looking for a willing victim. The post stated that he was "looking for a well-built 18 to 30-year-old to be slaughtered and then consumed". Bernd Jürgen Brandes responded to the advertisement. Bernd Jürgen Brandes was known for his interest in mutilation and his activity in the homosexual prostitution scene of his home city. As is known from a videotape the two made when they met in March 2001 in Meiwes' home, Meiwes amputated Bernd Jürgen Brandes's penis and the two men attempted to eat the penis together before Bernd Jürgen Brandes was killed. Brandes had insisted that Meiwes attempt to bite his penis off. This did not work, so Meiwes used a knife. Brandes apparently tried to eat some of his own penis raw, but could not because it was too tough and, as he put it, "chewy". Meiwes then sautéed the penis in a pan with salt, pepper, and garlic, but by then it was too burned to be consumed.[3] According to journalists who saw the video (which has not been made public), Brandes may already have been too weakened from blood loss to actually eat any of his penis. Armin Meiwes read a Star Trek book for 3 hours whilst his victim was bleeding to death in the bath. Meiwes apparently gave him large quantities of alcohol and pain killers, and then killed him in a room that he had built in his house for this purpose. After stabbing Bernd Jürgen Brandes to death in the throat, he hung the body on a meathook and tore hunks of flesh from it, he even tried to grind the bones to use as flour. The whole scene was recorded on the 2-hour video tape. Meiwes ate the body over the next few months, storing body parts in his freezer under pizza boxes and consuming up to 20kg of the flesh. Meiwes was arrested in December 2002, after a man in Innsbruck phoned the police after seeing new advertisements for victims and details about the killing on the Internet. Investigators searched his home and found body parts and the videotaped killing. Meiwes was later convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to eight and half years in prison. The case attracted considerable media attention and led to a debate over whether Meiwes could be convicted at all, given that Bernd Jürgen Brandes had voluntarily and knowingly participated in the act. Meiwes has admitted what he has done, and expressed regret for his actions. He added he wanted to write a book of his life story with the aim of deterring anyone who wants to follow his steps. Surprisingly, a number of websites dedicated to Meiwes have appeared, with people advertising for willing victims. "They should go for treatment, so it doesn't escalate like it did with me," said Meiwes. He believes there are about 800 "cannibals" in Germany. In April 2005, a German court ordered a retrial after prosecutors appealed his sentence. They believed he should have been convicted of murder, not manslaughter, and given a life sentence. Among the questions courts answered is whether Brandes agreed to his killing, and whether he was legally capable of doing so at the moment of killing, taking into account his apparent mental problems as well as his significant intake of alcohol and other drugs. Other aspects of the retrial determined whether Meiwes killed to satiate his own desires (in particular sexual desires), and not because he was asked to, which Meiwes has repeatedly rejected during testimony. At his retrial a psychologist stated that Meiwes could reoffend and still "had fantasies about devouring the flesh of young people." On 9 May 2006, a court in Frankfurt convicted Meiwes of murder and sentenced him to life imprisonment. Abd the TV documentary, which was exceptional was: Five to air cannibal documentary Leigh Holmwood in Cannes Wednesday October 10, 2007 MediaGuardian.co.uk Channel Five is to screen an interview with the German cannibal who made headlines around the world after being convicted for the murder of a man he met on the internet, who consented to being killed and then eaten. The case of Armin Meiwes caused a worldwide sensation because his victim, Berlin engineer Bernd Brandes, had agreed to being killed then eaten after the pair made contact through a chatroom. Meiwes was eventually convicted in May 2006 of the murder of Brandes after prosecutors appealed against an earlier conviction for manslaughter. Five is expected to air an hour-long German documentary, The Cannibal of Rotenburg, later this year. It will feature interviews with Meiwes in prison, where he is serving a life sentence. RDF Media, which is reversioning the film made by German company Stampfwerk Medienproduktions for the UK, said it was a "truly gripping documentary". Meiwes first made contact with Brandes in 2001 after advertising for a "young well-built man, who wanted to be eaten". In March that year, Brandes visited Meiwes at his house in the small town of Rotenburg where he swallowed 20 sleeping tablets and half a bottle of schnapps. Meiwes famously then cut off Brandes' penis - with the man's agreement - and fried it for both of them to eat. In the early hours of the morning, Meiwes then killed his victim before chopping up the body parts and slowly eating them over several months. "With unprecedented and exclusive access to Meiwes in prison, the life history of the perperator, his background and the motives for his deed are illuminated for the first time," an RDF spokeswoman said. "In addition to the face-to-face interviews with Meiwes, the producers gained unique access to never seen footage from inside his house in Rotenburg, home videos, the crime scene and close friends of the victim." Five is expected to air the programme as part of a mini-season of three documentaries on cannibalism, which will also include Cannibal Superstar, about Japanese man Issei Sagawa, who murdered and ate his girlfriend and has since become a bizarre celebrity. The hour-long programme is made by independent production company Visual Voodoo.
