4.Armin Meiwes
4.阿明·邁韋斯
By most accounts Meiwes was a depraved and pathetic individual from Roteburg, Germany. In 2001 he posted an advertisement on an internet site which read in part “looking for a well-built 18 to 30-year-old to be slaughtered and then consumed”. Unbelievably Meiwes received a serious response from a willing participant. The two men met on Christmas Day and proceeded to commit and videotape some of the most unimaginable acts on earth. Meiwes was arrested after revealing details of his crime. He is currently serving a life sentence in a German prison.
邁韋斯,德國羅滕堡人,據說是個墮落的可憐蟲。2001年他在某網站發布廣告,招募“18到30歲體格良好、愿意被殺死后吃掉的人”。難以置信的是,他得到了一名志愿者的鄭重回復。兩人在圣誕日見面,進而開展計劃并錄下全過程(其場景不堪入目到極致)。邁韋斯在網上公布犯罪過程后被捕,目前在德國一所監獄服無期徒刑。
3.Jeffrey Dahmer
3.杰夫瑞·達莫
Dahmer was an American serial killer, necrophiliac, and cannibal from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Dahmer, an extremely disturbed individual, would lure young men to his apartment where he would murder and dismember them after sedating them with alcohol or drugs. After disposing of his victims he would consume or experiment with their remains. By the time of his trial he was charged and convicted of 15 murders and given numerous life sentences. On November 28, 1994 Dahmer was beaten to death at the Colombia Correctional Institution in Milwaukee.
達莫來自美國威斯康星州密爾沃克,是連環殺手、戀尸癖者及食人犯。他精神錯亂,喜歡帶年輕男子回家,把他們灌醉或藥倒、殺害并肢解,然后吃他們的肉或用尸體做實驗。他因15宗謀殺案受到起訴和審訊,后被判多個終身監禁。1994年11月28日,達莫在密爾沃克哥倫比亞行為矯正中心被殺。
2.Carib West Indian Tribes
2.西印度群島的加勒比食人族
The first known modern accounts of cannibalism were reported following Columbus’ expedition to the West Indies. At this point cannibalism was considered atrocious and sacrilegious in the developed world. Imagine, if you will, the indescribable horror that the first Europeans felt when they witnessed Carib natives during a post war ritual chewing and/or eating human flesh. This misunderstanding of Caribbean culture lead to the people of the America’s being considered “savages”. These sentiments lead to policies which encouraged countless incidents of slavery, mass murder, exploitation and destruction of the native culture of the America’s that continued for centuries.
現代的食人案記錄始于哥倫布西印度群島的探險。在當時的發達國家,食人被看作殘忍、瀆神的行為。因此不難想象歐洲第一批探險者看到加勒比土著戰后咀嚼人肉時難以言喻的恐怖。這種文化誤解導致了幾個世紀以來針對美洲人的種族歧視、大規模奴役、恣意謀殺、瘋狂掠奪及對當地文明的毀壞。
