He was so proud of his culinary achievements, including rib dishes, that he posted short video clips on the Internet, according to police who removed the offensive footage.
The 21-year-old - who worked as a chef - confessed to police in the Russian city of Murmansk saying that he had a strong desire to eat human flesh.
He had used a gay dating website to lure his victim, aged 32, to his flat where he brutally knifed him to death before cutting off his head and feet.
Investigator Fedor Bludenov said yesterday: 'The defendant wanted to try eating at least ten people in the future.
'The accused stabbed the man a few times, and after having assured himself that his victim was dead, he cut up his body and ate him.'
The killer, named only as Ivan L, believed that the man would 'not be open with his contacts', and would not be found at his flat. Read More
The experiments nearly 70 years ago are already considered one of the darkest periods in U.S. medical research history.
Researchers who experimented on disabled American citizens and prison inmates in the name of medical advancement also infected a dying woman with syphilis in order to test whether penicillin could prevent infections.
New details released by the Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues revealed that soldiers, prostitutes, prisoners and mental patients were also among the 1,300 deliberately infected with the STD.
The commission revealed on Monday that only about 700 of those infected received some sort of treatment.
Of those infected, 83 people died, although it's not clear if the deaths were directly due to the experiments. Read More
A farmer's field in Hambleden, Buckinghamshire, yielded the grisly secret after a mass grave containing the remains of 97 babies - who all died around the same age - was uncovered.
Following a close study of the plot, experts have decided it was the site of an ancient brothel and terrible infanticides took place there.
With little or no effective contraception available to the Romans, who also considered infanticide less shocking than it is today, they may have simply murdered the children as soon as they were born.
Archaeologists say locals may have systematically killed and buried the helpless youngsters on the site.
Measurements of their bones at the site in Hambleden show all the babies died at around 40 weeks gestation, suggesting very soon after birth. If they had died from natural causes, they would have been different ages. Read More
Bodies of victims, who were buried in a mass ‘plague graves’ in the capital, show that part of the same sequence of genes still exists, hundreds of years later.
The Black Death claimed the lives of one-third of Europe's population in just five years from 1348 to 1353.
Scientists have now confirmed that Yersinia pestis which is known to cause cases of the plague today was also responsible for the brutally damaging bubonic plague which almost wiped out Europe.
Previously, tests which showed presence of the bacteria in medieval samples had been ignored because it was assumed they were contaminated and because the modern day bug spreads much more slowly and is far less deadly. Read More
Filthy living conditions in 14th Britain have been blamed for allowing the Black Death to spread.
It remains one of the most destructive pandemics in history which peaked in Europe between 1348 and 1350.
Experts say it reduced the world's population from an estimated 450 million to almost 350 million in 1400.
In 1603 the killer plague returned and killed 38,000 Londoners.
Hans-Olaf Henkel, the well-respected former head of the country’s main business federation, said his earlier support for the euro was ‘the biggest professional mistake I ever made’.
He called on Germany, Austria, Finland and the Netherlands to quit the euro – ditching struggling economies such as Greece, Spain, Portugal and Italy - and set up a new currency of their own.
Such a move – perhaps the closest thing possible to the return of the Deutsche Mark - would be highly controversial as Germany is the area’s powerhouse economy and has so far insisted it will stand behind the euro.
But Mr Henkel said: ‘We need to focus on saving Europe, not the euro.’ Read More
