Cannibalism, since ancient times, has been a practice that only a few tribes and clans used to make, based in eating human flesh, maybe for food requirements or because of sacrifices or religious rituals.
In these days, there are also amazing cases of cannibal episodes, such as Rotenberg’s cannibal, Armin Maiwes, who was sentenced in Berlin for a man´s murdering, which he killed, cooked and ate. In his case, was a passionate, perverse and a sexual cannibalism; and of course a mental disorder.
Another known case was Alexander Kinyua from Baltimore. This student killed his 37-year-old roommate, he tore his roommate into pieces and after that he ate his heart and part of his brain. Such an aberration was reported by the aggressor’s father who told the police he had found a human head and two hands in a few soda cans.
Is suspected that maybe Kinyua was a follower of the ghoulish and slightly satirical political organization Church of the Euthanasia in USA. Which promotes an education to restore the balance in human population; they use music, media, and advertising, to point the massive growth of population that is becoming unsustainable. This church´s message is to reduce and exterminate the human population, which slogan is “Save the planet, kill yourself”; its fundamentals principles are suicide, abortion, cannibalism and sodomy.
We also know the case of the 31-year-old cannibal from Miami, Ruby Eugene. Ruby seemed like a regular and religious kid, police caught him eating his victim in the middle of the street. He was naked when he attacked his victim, a 65-year-old homeless man, he gave him several bites in the face and he ate his nose, cheeks and one of his eyes while he was screaming. There was speculation about the reason of this behavior that apparently, was a drug that might have awoken Eugene´s primary instincts known as Ivory Wave that is incredibly sold in a very common way in USA and England.
A possible case of cannibalism was known in Russia, a 68-year-old lady, Tamara Samsonova, who worked in a hotel got involved as a suspect in eleven murders in Saint Petersburg´s city, during the last twenty years. This lady tore apart her victims, decapitated them, and dismembered them, but the possibility that she also ate them was never cleared. She also used to write in a diary what she did in several languages, which is being used by the police in the investigation of many cases that never were resolved, even her missing husband´s case in 2005.
Cannibalism nowadays is caused by mental disorders, consequence of a drug intake or psychological problems caused by a dirty and corrupt society. We can’t discard either a ritual anthropophagy, sectarian cannibalism, despite that this was already practiced by pre-Columbian, Aztecs and Mayans tribes, the offering of human flesh, organs and hearts to worship their gods.
