Russian Yevgeny Usanov received a 12 year jail sentence today for the murder of a friend. The two were at a bar near their homes in Saratov, Russia, when, in their heavily liquored state, the got into a fight. Usanov proceeded to stab his friend through the heart, effectively killing him. But that's the happy part of the story.
After realizing what he had done, Usanov, who apparently looked at his victim as more than a friend, wrapped the corpse in bay leaves and fed it through a mincer, slicing and dicing the body into an easily edible form.
Court prosecutor Natalya Rubanova summed up the situation, saying, "These culinary preparations were done with only one aim -- to eat the victim."
Ryan's Opinion: Holy hamburgers, Batman, is this for real? It troubles me to ponder what this guy's thought process must have been. "Oh no! I killed Olaf!...I wonder what human flesh tastes like?" Several points come to mind:
- Why couldn't he use his fists like all the other drunks? Why did he have to get fancy and use a knife, especially on his drinking buddy?
- Instead of fleeing in terror from the law, why did he drag the body home with him?
- Does he have a mincer in his backyard or what?
- Did he take his friend to the bar specifically with the intention of killing and eating him?
- Why did he only get 12 years imprisonment for this?
And that, dear reader, is the--(vomit).
