Interview with a Cannibal

For some reason Peligro’s thread about strange sounds reminded me of this video I watched a while back by Vice where a Japanese cannibal is interviewed. It’s both fascinating and disturbing and caused me to feel both rage and disgust.

I highly recommend watching it if you haven’t. Seriously, check it out:[url “http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BosZxa1bYcE”] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BosZxa1bYcE

“Issei Sagawa murdered an innocent woman and spent three days eating her flesh. Due to loopholes in the law, Issei is a free man to this day.”[/size][/#ffffff][/font]

Probably lean people. the cannibal said he didn’t enjoy the fat from his victim’s ass. he wanted the red meat and couldn’t figure out what the yellow corn type substance was when he cut open the right ass cheek. although, he did cut off her breasts and eat them but he said they were not very tasty.

sad photos. can’t tell if the hunks of meat hanging off her legs were because he just started biting into her or it was the careless job he did with the knife.

either way, just sad. he says he loved her so much for how pretty she was and yet he reduced her to a wretched disgusting looking specimen.

the dude should be killed. He’s doing the world no favors and it’s not like we might put the wrong dude to death, cause he’s full on admitted it. he should be forced to eat himself starting at his feet and working his way up.

I wonder what the loop holes were that let him off… more importantly, why would there be loopholes like that??

It’s probably distasteful (no pun intended) to ask, but I was wondering if he cooked her or ate her raw. He never said.

It is interesting to note that he raped her dead body. I wonder if it’s common for cannibalism and necrophilia to go together, and if so, did he continue to rape her after he started eating her.

horribly sad shit

I’m against capital punishment but this dude is a fucking asshole of the highest degree. When I first watched it I wanted to bash his overly large head in until he had to eat through a straw and was reduced to a bed for the rest of his life. But at the end of the video he talks about wanting to die and that he’ll likely strike again (since he supposedly can’t get off anymore). So, killing him would be doing him a favor really. He needs to be locked up and in prison (not some mental hospital).

Sagawa’s wealthy father provided a top lawyer for his defense, and after being held for two years without trial Sagawa was found legally insane and unfit to stand trial by the French judge Jean-Louis Bruguière, who ordered him held indefinitely in a mental institution.[1] After a visit by the author Inuhiko Yomota, Sagawa’s account of the murder was published in Japan under the title In the Fog.[1] Sagawa’s subsequent publicity and macabre celebrity likely contributed to the French authorities’ decision to have him extradited to Japan. Upon arrival in Japan, he was immediately taken to Matsuzawa hospital, where examining psychologists all found him to be sane, stating that sexual perversion was the sole motivation for the murder.[1] Japanese authorities found it legally impossible to detain him because the French government refused to release court documents (which remain secret) to Japan, claiming that the case had already been dropped in France. As a result, Sagawa checked himself out of the mental institution on August 12, 1986, and has been a free man ever since.[1] Sagawa’s freedom has been questioned and criticized by many.[1]

I’d never even thought about if he’d cooked the meat before eating it. Damn…

Seeing a pretty girl like that mutilated with chunks missing from her thighs and the rest of her body really does my head in. Reduced to just meat and bones with all attractiveness and personality completely gone.

I’m against capital punishment

I normally am too. however if the person has admitted the crime I’m full on 100% pro death penalty.

I’m of two thoughts when it comes to this dude.

#1 He’s dangerous, kill him cause he says he will strike again, plus he’s struck already. so what if he says he wants to die? We should put no thought or consideration into what he wants. he’s not even part of the decision process. he just has to go along with whatever the world decides.

#2 he’s playing the reverse psychology game… he really wants to live, he knows people want him dead so he says he wants to die so everyone will say fuck you you have to live… So now I revert back to #1 he has no decision in his fate.

As a result, Sagawa checked himself out of the mental institution on August 12, 1986, and has been a free man ever since.

That poor girl’s family. I’m shocked no one from her family tried to get revenge on him.

That’s also one side of what I’ve been thinking too.

He can’t get work (boo hoo) and talks about doing it again and/or killing himself and also fascinating about a beautiful woman killing him. Creepy asshole. I don’t know how the piece of trash is living still.

A part of me wants Clint Eastwood to walk into his apartment, put a revolver to his head, squint at him in disgust for a few seconds while looking him dead in the eye, pull the trigger, and walk out like he doesn’t give a fuck.

Guy is the definition of worthless. Him living benefits nobody and has actually had to opposite effect in the past. So, yeah… end him, I suppose.

I didn’t click on the link, but I’m assuming this is the VICE FILMS documentary of the dude . . . That film made me depressed, sad, and really really angry.

It was just infuriating.

The part that made me the maddest was when they did that porno movie and then revealed to the girl from the movie the details of who the freak was, what he did, etc. etc. That was so messed up. Just the epitome of soullessness and I felt so incredibly sad for that girl.

He could only get away with that in Japan. Tell an American porn actress that the guy she just got debased on film by is a psychotic serial killer who eats women . . . . yeah, sorry, but that guy is gonna get a sharp fork stabbed in both eyes.

The film is very interesting. I think it really tweaks my head because of the makers’ choice to just put it all on the table but not (or at least not in an overly transparent way) apply a judgment to the guy. There are parts where I start feeling sad for the dude . . . but then I just keep thinking of the “big picture”. This dude is an unrepentant evil piece of human garbage and should absolutely be destroyed and thrown away like the scum he is.

And I guess that’s part of the power of the documentary. The subject matter speaks for itself, so why do any “preaching” whatsoever? No one with a functioning brain could possibly come to any conclusion contrary to the obvious.

Anyway, I’m addicted to those VICE films (even though about 70% of them ruin my evening – the drug ones can be especially soul-crushing). [see: “Krokodil”]

I’m actually surprised he has been able to make any kind of a living up to this point. Who the fuck wants to employ someone like this?

This may be why he’s resurfaced, draw attention to himself and his crimes and then charge for new interviews. At the very least it’s a new round of attention.

If he was any sort of smart he would’ve taken his early interview money and gone to culinary school and then opened his own restaurant and used his notoriety to promote it. have shit on the menu like “the daily surprise.” or “mystery meat in a bowl.” That shit would’ve either flopped hard or made him a gazillion dollars. with weird people uniting on the internet I seem to think it may as well have been a fucking ATM for him.

Same film and yes that was extremely fucked up. I felt so bad for that porn chick, how can you do that to someone? that’s got to be some form of rape… not letting her decide if she wants to have sex with guy by with holding important details…
Late,
grmpysmrf

Yeah. I’m usually a shoulder-shrugger when it comes to women who choose to do porn or stripping or prostitution or whatever . . . “Ehhh, you reap what you so. You made your bed, lie in it . . . blah blah blah.” But that was just so incredibly CRUEL and I think only the most soulless of evil schmucks could not feel compassion for her. It was intense psychological torture, and yeah, I guess you could certainly call it a rape of some sort. Psychologically, if nothing else.

I was so repulsed by that and just wanted to slit the throats of anyone involved.

Blah blah this shit is cool you guys are emo.

Prongs BBQ!!!
Void’s gonna roast up one of his 600lb groupies. We’ll have enough meat for all the Prongers and still have leftovers for months.

Same. I’ve wasted hours and been late to work, meetings, and other events thanks to Vice documentaries. The Krokodil one is fucked up. Anything related to Krokodil is highly disturbing and burns images into your mind that can’t be erased.

I’m assuming/hoping you don’t mean what he did was “cool”.

And you’re welcome.

I can’t speak for Void, but I’d rather eat a pretty dead girl’s buttcheek than a log of crap anyday.

Wait, did I miss the part where those are the only two options? Or does void have some weird scat fetish?

Fat bitches and shat??? Gotdaaayum…

Yeah, I guess you missed early rounds, but the back of Void’s Pokemon card highlights the following . . .

– Loves da fatties.
– Eats da poo poo.
– Violates da unconscious underage groupies.

He also gives and/or receives BJ’s from black dudes. But, seriously, after whale-ridin’ and dookie eatin’, does anyone really give a damn how many times he serviced Mr. T?

Oh, for the love of…

Really, Void? You like eating shit? The fuck, man?

I remember twice as a kid I got shit in my mouth. Once while playing football in like the 3rd-4th grade with some friends on my block. I fell cheek first in dog shit and got some in my mouth. Second time I got cat shit in my mouth. It tastes exactly like it smells. Tragic stuff.

EDIT: And I hope the part about fucking underage chicks isn’t true.

Ah my cult of personality grows! No I’ve never actually eaten shit per say…

Also I never committed rape per say…spiritual rape maybe…

On another note, check out these hotties! We can feed Prongs for years to come!!

I call the red head on the left!! Who’s in?

The redhead’s skin is all gross and rashy. If we get to pick our cuts I’d rather have a big fat slab of belly meat from the one on the right.

I call the red head on the left!! Who’s in?

Does being stuck in orbit around her count as “in?”

or

there’s room enough in the red head for all of prongs to be “in” probably all of avalanche, too.
