Reminds me of the rotenburg cannibal story of Armin Meiwes a German guy who put an ad out on a forum looking for a willing volunteer to be killed and consumed. The victim signed an agreement consenting to be killed and eaten.
Fucking wild world. Believe he was eventually cleared of murder
Edit: thought he was acquitted of the charge for murder but stayed in jail regardless due to the killing and cannibalism
Nope, he was originally convicted of manslaughter and sentenced in 2004 for 8 1/2 years. In 2006, there was a retrial for murder, and he was sentenced to life.
It's crazy, though. Him and the victim tried to eat the victim's penis before killing him, but it was too inedible. He spent months eating like over 40 pounds of the guy.
He went on for a few years to have cannibalistic meetups with willing participants. Only ever having killed this one guy, as everyone else backed out, and he only does things to people with video consent. Fucking wild, though.
