German cannibal had sex with gay lover, ate him alive

The pair met after Brandes posted an advertisement online entitled Dinner or your dinner' and offering the chance to eat me alive'.

Berlin: Armin Meiwes, 42-year-old cannibal from Germany, has narrated in graphic detail how he ate his gay lover alive 'with his consent' and then killed him.

Meiwes has become one of the most dreaded cannibals in history after he came clean about the killing and consuming 43-year-old computer technician Bernd Brandes in 2001, as reported by The Daily Mail.

The pair met after Brandes posted an advertisement online entitled ‘Dinner – or your dinner’ and offering ‘the chance to eat me alive’.

Going in detail about the horrific killing, Meiwes said in an interview for a documentary ‘Docs: Interview with a Cannibal’, “I decorated the table with nice candles. I took out my best dinner service, and fried and piece of rump steak – a piece from his back – made what I call princess potatoes, and sprouts,’ he said.

He added, “After I prepared my meal, I ate it.”

Meiwes described the first bite as being ‘very strange’. He said that he spent over 40 years longing for it, dreaming about it. He added that ‘the flesh tastes like pork but stronger’.

Meiwes became the first person in Germany to be charged with murder for sexual satisfaction, or ‘love cannibalism’.

After the pair met they went to Meiwes isolated farmhouse, where they had sex. But, according to Meiwes, Brandes was not satisfied because ‘he wanted to be eaten alive’.

According to the report, Meiwes cut off Brandes’ penis ‘with his agreement’, and fried it for both of them to eat.

Meiwes eventually killed Brandes in the early hours of the morning, by stabbing him in the neck and then chopping him into pieces. He put parts of him in the freezer, and buried his head in his garden.

Meiwes was arrested in December 2002, after the police were tipped off by a young Austrian student.

He was convicted of manslaughter on January 30, 2004 and jailed for eight years. During his time in prison, Meiwes is reported to have become a vegetarian.
