cyril wong - dear jeffery dahmer

Armin Meiwes put up an ad for a man
agreeable to slaughter. After turning away

five candidates, Bernd Juergen Brandes
knocked on his door. On their first

and final date, Bernd had his penis
removed, cooked and shared between them.

Armin said, "My friend enjoyed dying, death".
Dear Jeffery, how beautifully consensual!

Imagine it: "Would you like it steamed, fried
or simply raw? Also, where would you

keep my head in the morning? And what colour
will you paint my bones?" Imagine it!
