Quote:
Nicolas Cocaign and Thierry Baudry had a fight when Cocaign asked Baudry to wash his hands after he had used the toilet during the night of January 2, 2007. Cocaign strangled Baudry and cut open his chest with a razor blade.

Thinking it was the heart, Cocaign then ripped out a piece of Baudry's lung and ate part of it raw before cooking the rest.

"What I did, I liked doing," said Cocaign, 37, who has a shaved head and whose face is covered in tattoos.

He will have to serve at least 20 years of his sentence.

Aware of his impulses, Cocaign had requested psychiatric help in 1998 and asked to be placed in isolation in 2006.

"It's exceptional to see a psychologically disturbed person say: I have to be treated," said defense lawyer Fabien Picchiottino, noting the "failure of the psychiatric, penitentiary and social system."

Mistaking a lung for a heart? :roll:

...and they say Americans are poorly educated! :lol:

Not nice, I guess with all the gore of the fight it might be quite hard for the man to work out which organ is which.

'Before cooking the rest'?

Where do prisoners get cooking gear?

How the hell did he have a RAZOR BLADE in a prison cell?

Cocaign addict topic

If this is true, he must have had a hard time going through muscle, fat and bone. Many organs from a cadaver organs look different outside of a textbook when they are not colour coded, and all packed together in a body. :roll:

Security might be very loose in certain prisons. 8O

The moral of the story: Wash your hands after using the toilet. :roll: .

I cannot imagine a worse transgressing. Now that's a faux pas. I wonder what his parole board will say? :shameonyou:

Nicolas Cocaign is said to be psychotic by 2 psychiatrits but 3 others say he's not
For those who can read French and aren't afraid of doing nightmares, it's possible to read the whole story on internet.

They will probably let him out eventually and he'll get a job as a speciality chef. :wink:

Maybe those three would like to share a cell with him.

Maybe he's not psychotic, but I think it's irrelevant at this point!

Why "irrelevant"?

I mean, it sure is a better thing for nurses in hospitals for instance to have a guy like him kept in prison instead of asylum but still... :?

so, this guy asks to be isolated because he knows he wants to kill people...instead, they put him in a cell with a scissors, cooking equipment, and a cellmate...

Trident chewing gum :: psychosis

Mental Note to self: Do not play 'rock paper scissors' with a cannabilistic lunatic in a prison cell.
