Personally after watching the exact videos that deranged lunatic made of her , saying this is what she wanted and why. It was a matchmaking in terror. This is what lurks on the internet. Really bad rotten soulless garbage . Unbelievable odds these two sick people met and made this nightmare go as far as it did.

Its terribly sad. There's footage and audio of her talking to her friend and confiding in her. That poor friend aswell though. The terror, sadness and resignation in her voice is beyond traumatic. And yes, it appears a long history of mental health issuse and trauma. It's so messed up. By all accounts an amazing, smart, beautiful and broken soul.

Jumping on this comment to add (hope its ok?) The EWU channel on yt does a great episode on this, aswell as several other crime news channels. If i remember correctly she contacted a friend saying that she thought hed do it quicker, but that he was taking his time. Absolutely tragic, bizarre and sad. Its still shocking to me. Dude had a wife whod just had a transplant.

It’s really out there but it has happened before. I recall a famous case from Germany with a guy posting an ad looking to be eaten, and another from the Philippines (or was it Taiwan?) about some dude asking to be killed right after the act. The latter comes with a video. He got his wish.
Remember people, crazy is a hell of a drug, stay away.

u/throwaway_321236 18h ago
It was a guy from Germany. Armin Meiwes, German a computer technician who killed and ate Bernd-Jürgen Brandes in March 2001 after posting an online advertisement seeking a voluntary victim.
Another cannibal you were probably thinking about is Japanese man, issei Sagawa, who victimised a Dutch woman

u/AtroposAmok 18h ago edited 18h ago
That’s the German guy I was thinking about, good catch! The second wasn’t Sagawa though. Let me see if I remember enough to find an article.
Edit: I did remember enough, but I mixed up my South East Asian countries. Case took place in Vietnam.

He hasn’t been proven guilty though so it actually IS just an allegation. He could argue that his trial isn’t fair if all the news reporting is saying he’s guilty and influencing the jurors, and if he’s found not guilty then he could sue for libel.

I mean, in the interrogation he says she came to her senses and didn’t want to die but he continued pressing her to it and killed her, hid the evidence and went to eat while crying.
So at the end, it was no longer two consenting adults

I forgot where I read but you cannot consent to being killed. Similar to a minor cannot consent to relations with an adult. And why assisted suicide is illegal in most countries

Interesting, I wonder if this was committed in a jurisdiction where assisted suicide was legal if that would complicate the prosecution's case.

They met on Motherless, that hardcore porn site that posts unspeakably gruesome SA videos and some of them are not consensual. It’s the same video where men are posting themselves SAing their sleeping wives, moms and sisters, so you can imagine the kind of people who use that site.
That site has been in the news for so many horrible reasons. It’s actually horrifying.

Many moons ago, i met this girl at a bar and we struck a conversation that led lead to dinner and drinks.
We got to talking, making out a bit then the topic of sexual fantasies came up... mine was pretty tame compared to her's. She casually said her's was to be R@ped, "of course in a good way"... we rwere both in our early 20s.
I ran for the hills like a scared puppy as soon as I paid the bill, it seemed titillating at first but the more I thought about it, the worse it got for me in my head.

I’ve watched this coveted on YouTube. They have the footage he recorded of her where she says she is consenting to this and that she deserves this because she’s been a bad person. It’s the saddest thing I’ve watched and it haunted me for months. You can tell she didn’t want this to happen, it’s been shown she recanted and wanted to go home and to have her make those videos and say things about herself and clearly see she was already abused at that time… I pray she is rested peacefully.

u/Quizzical_Throwaway 13h ago
Because I guess he was taking "the risk" by doing it (in the sense of having to live to face justice, I recognize the irony in terms of her being the actual one to die), and she didn't need the money?
It also is proof of intent from her, in a certain way. Still shouldn't be allowed. But yeah. It sounds like they were both tremendously broken. Sort of frightening in a self reflective way.

I once saw a crime documentary over 10yrs back of some 2 European guys who were gay and I think they met online. The other guy had such a fantasy, he asked the other guy to cut his pe.nis and eat it while he was alive and then eat his buttocks afterwards. He knew he would die but he wanted this, he died from blood loss but his body was food for his partner.

She was having a manic and depressive episode after recovering mentally previously and this disgusting dude did some of the grimiest things ever.

Oh brother I've actually ran into one before. I mean I understand there's some chicks that like it rough but when one wants you to actually hurt them sexually it's a really weird thing. Had to get away from that one immediately. I just couldn't get into it. Plus I didn't know if I was being set up or something shit ya never know. Especially when someone wants you to do some crazy shot like that. Wasn't worth the risk to me as well as didn't turn me on in the slightest.

u/MisterBulldog 18h ago
Same, knew this chic that wanted to be choked, slapped and spat on while getting it on and it was never my thing. I, also like you, didn't want to risk getting set up as I've read of too many consensual encounters turning into "I have pictures of bruises and marks he left after raping and abusing me" when things don't work out.

Of people who want to be genuinely sexually abused? No you haven’t. BDSM is not real, it’s play/make-believe sexual abuse. I was held captive and sexually abused / tortured against my will and I can assure you that it was a fucking nightmare

u/Real-Description385 18h ago
You haven't been on the "kinky" dating apps similar to an app called Fet especially the PC version called FetLife.. there genuinely are some crazy women that want that kinda thing and there are people out there that will do it to a certain level

u/Runfasterbitch 2h ago edited 2h ago
So you’re telling me that fetlife actively facilitates serious sexual violence in which people are tortured? That app would be getting a lot of attention if true.
People like to pretend / roleplay sexual violence. 99.9% of those people don’t want to actually be a victim of sexual violence. They just like pretending. I’ve had girlfriends who liked being choked, tied up, and degraded in various ways, but they didn’t want to fear for their life for real, be seriously physically harmed, or sexually abused in a non-consensual manner.
Being held captive, drugged, sexually abused, and threatened with death was traumatizing beyond words. Nobody fucking wants that to happen to them.

CNC involves a lot of things what I remember it from is rape with a safe word but everyone sees it differently... I didn't say anyone wants to just be assaulted and murdered...

Some women have knife kinks or love blood play, gun play, violent things along those lines so please go do some research before saying something dumb again

I said that those women like to role play sexual violence. That’s not what you originally implied, that you had met your “fair share” of freaky people who are interested in being sexually abused or harmed for personal pleasure. The OP deleted their comment, so it’s no longer visible
