December 3 saw the beginning of the trial of Armin
Meiwes, a computer technician living in Robenburg,
Germany, who is accused of killing and eating a
man that he had met through a web site.
Meiwes, who confessed to killing and eating
Bernd-Jurgen Brandes, said to the German newspaper
"Welt am Sonntag" that he wants to discourage other
people from doing what he did.
Meiwes met Brandes after announcing on the Net that
he wanted "young men, eighteen to 30 years old,
with nice bodies who wanted to be killed".
He said that he was looking for a man who wanted
his penis to be cut off and cooked so that he could
eat it before being stabbed to death. Incredibly,
some people answered his ad.
Some, however, did not want to go all the way.
But Brandes really wanted to go through everything.
After cutting off his penis, Meiwess cooked it and
the two of them ate it. Afterwards, he killed Brandes
and cut his body up into small pieces, which he
placed in his freezer. he ceremony lasted two hours
and was preserved on video.
Meiwes said that that seeing horror films when he
was between eight and twelve years old inspired
in him fantasies of eating his friends at school.
He told the court that eating human flesh for him
was like a Christian communion ceremony.
Meiwes's defense lawyer will probably defend him
by maintaing that Brandes really wanted to be killed
and eaten. If the court accepts this defense, Meiwes
will receive a prison sentence for up to five years.
It is probable that the prosecutor will demand a
life sentence with the argument that Meiwes is too
dangerous to live freely in society.
Cannibalism is not illegal in the German penal code,
and the charge against him is murder for sexual
satisfaction.

Un processo legal comenciava 3 decembre pro Armin
Meiwes, un technico informatic qui viveva in
Robenburg,
Germania, pro occider mangiar un homine que ille
habeva incontrate trans un sito del Web.
Meiwes, qui confessava haber occidite e mangiate
Bernd-Jurgen Brandes, diceva al jornal german "Welt
am Sonntag" que ille vole discoragiar que altere
personas imita su actiones.
Meiwes incontrava Brandes post annunciar in le Rete
que ille voleva "juvene homines, de 18 a 30 annos
de etate, con belle corpores, qui voleva esser
occidite".
Ille diceva que ille cercava un homine qui voleva
que on amputava e coceva su pene de maniera que
ille poteva mangiar lo ante esser pugnalate usque
le morte. Incredibilemente, ille habeva alicun
respondentes.
Unes tamen non voleva vader al puncto final. Ma
Brandes vermente voleva completar le processo.
Post amputar su pene, Meiwes lo coceva e le duo
homines lo mangiava. Postea, ille occideva Brandes
e cortava su corpore in parve partes le quales ille
mitteva in su congelator. e ceremonia durava duo
horas e esseva preservate in video.
Meiwes diceva que vidente films de horor inter le
etate de octo a dece-duo annos, ille disveloppava
fantasias de eder su amicos de schola. Ille diceva
al corte que mangiar carne human esseva como un
ceremonia de communion in un servicio religiose
christian.
Le advocato de Meiwes probabilemente le defendera
dicente que Brandes vermente voleva esser occidite
e mangiate. Si le corte accepta iste defensa, Meiwes
essera incarcerate pro un periodo maximo de cinque
annos. Il es probabile que le accusator del stato
demandara un periodo de incarceration pro omne su
vita con le argumento que Meiwes es troppo periculose
pro viver liberemente in le societate general.
Le cannibalismo non es illegal in le codice penal
de Germania, e le accusation contra ille es le
assassinato pro satisfaction sexual.
