Episode 11 - Cannibal Killers

The Cambridge Dictionary defines cannibalism as "A person who eats human flesh or an animal that eats the flesh of its own type." Cannibalism is the final frontier of human taboos, not only does cannibalism involve murder but the idea of eating human flesh is too much for some people to stomach.

Episode 11 delves into the world of cannibalism and it's many many crimes. Come with me as I explore the different areas of cannibalism as well as examining 3 true crime cases. WARNING. This episode contains crimes against children, it won't be suitable for everyone. If you are faint of heart or have a weak stomach, click away now.
