Glue Sniffer Murders, Cooks, And Eats Friend
Cannibal's Victim 'Tasted Like Lamb'
A Mexican accused of killing, cooking and eating his companion acknowledged having committed the crime and said the victim “tasted like lamb.”
“If they’d let me, I would have eaten it all,” said Gumaro de Dios Arias, following a court appearance in Playa de Carmen, about 36 miles south of the Caribbean resort of Cancun.
He said he killed the victim – identified only as El Guacho – because the man had failed to buy Arias drugs with money he had given him for that purpose.
Afterward, Arias apparently tried to make a vegetable stew with portions of the body, but didn’t like it, so instead he began to roast sections of the corpse, police said.
“I ate about 2.5 kilograms,” Arias said. ”It tasted very good.”
Arias was apparently under the effects of sniffing glue when he allegedly killed the man by hitting him in the head with a blunt object; the body was missing slices from its legs and internal organs when found hanging from the rafters of a hut in Playa de Carmen.
The judge in the case has several days to decide whether to send Arias over for trial for murder.
