Hmmm, yeah I am all about conservation. I would think there is a formula that could be writen to reduce years of sentence by percentage of body eaten. Something to that effect.
But you run in to the problem of having to prove that you've eaten the person, and not just burned them up or something.

You could always pick through their poop like a mom looking for a penny or something....
"Hey I got a tooth here, and a bit of hair!"
"Lucky for him, now he gets a few years knocked off. And to think we just thought he was a sicko murderer. Poor guy was just hungry."
"And frugal!"

I would say its more so, because in addition to murder, you've desecrated his remains by eating them and denied the victim's family a proper burial, which is a custom in any society. Talk about adding insult to injury.
BTW danoff, I tried to PM you, but your inbox was full.

I don't think you could really kill them just to eat them, but you'd better hope you can live that extra day so they die, and you've got something to eat without commiting murder...

Well, it is something that needs to be addressed and there should be a ISO manual or something....even California had to just pass a bill that illegalized people from comitting necrophelia....if they had to pass a law for that, they shoudl cover the whole spectre of weird but necessary laws / injustices

I'm going to echo Duke's question here at this point: is that a even remotely serious statement? More people are killed by auto accidents or heart disease in 10 minutes than the number of people eaten by their neighbors in the last 10 years. I think you jest about just how important this issue needs to be 'addressed'.
I'm not telling you to stop talking about it, but this is hardly on my list of today's pertinent and compelling issues.

It may be on your list ///M Spec, but i thought it was just a topic people would have something to say about ( by the way, liked the 10 minutes / 10 years thing...very good ! )

I believe murder is based on lawfulness of the act of killing. It is not murder if I kill a deer. It is not murder if I kill a solder in battle. It is not murder if I kill someone who has broken into my home.
Definition of terms can be argued. I know what you're saying but your terms are wrong.

If there are two of us on a desert island, and I attack you and kill you, it's murder, whether there is law there or not. If I attack you and you kill me in self defense, it's not murder.
The definition lies in the morality, NOT in the legality.

Reduced sentence?
I tell you what, If I ever come across some sick **** who gets off on eating the bodies of his victims, I'll do my utmost to put him away for the rest of his (hopefully short) life.
It's keeping SOBs like that of the streets that's making me become a cop.

The Japenese had some insane soldiers who liked to eat the livers and the flesh of captured air men and other soldiers. The thought was you gained power from it. When they were charged with war crimes there was no law against EATING YOUR PRISONERS. No law was ever introduced because no one ever thought that it would ever be done ..like who's that crazy ? So that had to be charged with something else, like abuse of corpse or improper burial. Of course the fact that they had killed the captive by bayonet practice or sharp bamboo spears was also taken into consideration. The people in China who had to put up with the majority of this type of thing were not so lucky as to get war crime trials. In China the practice was wide spread along with just plain rape and beheadings.

I think that Cannibilism shouldn't be counted off for. You should get more time If you kill the person, then eat them.
