A cannibal who murdered and ate his own mother over a month has been given a reduced sentence after a judge ruled that “he needed to eat” after having spent all his money on vodka and gambling.
The 27-year-old Russian man, a resident of Samara and convicted robber, smashed his 55-year-old mother’s head with a brick and then strangled her to death with a length of cable after she refused to give him her pension so he could buy booze.
He subsequently stowed her body on his apartment’s balcony, and then spent her pension payment on alcohol and gambling over a two day period.
Once he got home he once again had no money and ran out of food, but fortunately severe temperatures had frozen the corpse of his mother solid, telling police “She was frozen, like meat in the freezer.”
He began slicing off parts of her body to flesh out his meals of soup and pasta, a ghoulish culinary regime he continued for a month.
He complained his mother’s flesh was not very tasty: ‘I did not like the meat very much. It was too fatty. But I was so hungry, I had to eat it.’
His macabre larder was only discovered when police investigating him for the theft of a mobile phone found the corpse still on the balcony, but missing both legs.
He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 15 years for his crimes, but the judge sympathised with his plight, saying ‘he was not keen to eat the meat, he just was hungry,’ and generously reduced his sentence by 9 months.
Psychological evaluations judged him to be sane and well aware of the nature of his actions.

He had to eat (mmm... chicken).
and her mom is free
next time when u run out of food, u no wat to do :)
WTH, the psychologist should be evaluating the judge, not the cannibal. From 15 years to 9 months?? WTF was he thinking?
no it was reduced to 14 years and 3 month . judge took off nine month
Reduced BY 9 months, not TO 9 months.
BY 9 month, not TO 9 month. learn to read.
After reading through all the comments, it's amazing how many posters do not possess reading comprehension beyond the 5th grade.
just why did the judge give him even more???
WUT?
Dumb judge is dumb...
judge just got a tupperware full of the guy's mom so... it's only fair
@ Hugegnome : "After reading through all the comments, it's amazing how many posters do not possess reading comprehension beyond the 5th grade."
Maybe some are from the 5th grade. Its quite possible...also equally possible many might be 30+ and never grew up lol
In Russia the food is you!
good one there
I see wut u did thar
But you said it wrong X-x You were supposed to say the whole phrase.
In Soviet Russia...
the food is YOU!
Sooooooo....... He got 9 months off his 15 year sentence for being hungry. Seems reasonable enough.(sarcasm)
I can't believe they judged him to be sane when the first thing to came to his mind while eating his mother was "too fatty".
I prefer lean meat myself.
It can't be helped.
so if i HAD to eat someone in Russia I can be spared? Looks like i don't have to pay for food if i move there, EVER
And you're still completely sane!
He only got off of the charges of cannibalism. He still got 15 years for murder. So, if you FIND a dead body in Russia, then you can eat it and not go to jail.
Start by looking around balconies!

what the hell
you gotta eat when you can
Some day, you go, through the rain...
Some day, you'll dine, on a tree frog...
This ordeal, the trial, to survive...
FOR THE DAY, WE SEE NEW LIGHT~
living... in a dream
SNAKE-EATER!!!
-the beast
*clicks R1 looks at Eva's tits*
Tastes just like chicken.
and its free xD
and you want to joke about this?
thats totally disgusting.
You're right but what's totally wrong is you're getting negative points on your comment, some people are really disgusting.
He could've just sold him mom's body parts on the Russian black market. I'm sure he's get some gambling money for that, no?
She was too old, he wouldn't have gotten anything for them.
If he thought of that, he would probably gambled it away anyways.
Judge: He killed his mother and sold her organs on the black market? What kind of-
Oh, he needed money for gambling? Nevermind then, 9 months off his sentence.
so people in Russia can found animal to fuck not to eat
Matricide + cannibalism = 15yrs + judge's sympathy
Is this such a common occurence in russia for the son be evaluated as sane and only earn that much punishment? Shssh, I can't fathom what they consider insane in that country.
In USSR one could be declared insane for doing something in disagreement with the Party ideology. As a result, people are seldom declared insane nowadays.
And there is no need to be insane in medical sense to do what he did. Just being drunk would do.
He continued eating his mother for a month because he didn't have pension money for food nor alcohol. So no, he wasn't drunk all the time yet he continued eating her. Unless you are suggesting vodka can keep you drunk after its consumed a month before.
If he is considered insane then he can instantly bypass the jail term as well as all the perks mentally disabled people get.
The reason the judge gave him reduced punishment is probably because he knows the man won't survive those 15 years.
It is common knowledge in Russia that matricide is unforgivable in criminal circles. You can be a killer, a thief and a con artist and the criminals will just shrug. But once you kill a parent, you're done for.
None of the criminals judged for matricide come out of prison in one piece. They are tortured, raped and sometimes killed. In the cases where they survive prison, they're branded with symbolic and very visible tattoos that make them free game for every thug and criminal outside the prison.
Those 9 months mean nothing. The judge knows fully that the rest of the sentence will feel like an eternity in hell for the guy.
That still doesn't make it ok, he killed her and ate her and his prison sentence was 15 years? Maybe the reason why the crime is so rampant over there is because Judges give lighter sentences for feeling remorse (pretending to feel remorse).
oh ok, this was in russia. not so surprised now.
Artefact always has a good picture to make even the worst news seem all right.
Well, some people gotta eat... even if its his fault for being poor spending all his money on alcohol.
9 months for eating his mother...
but for murder?
and the other things he did, robbery?
It is 9 months taken off his sentence of 15 years. He still has 14 years 3 months remaining. Probably less, accounting for the time he already was in prison before the trial.
Am I the only one who thinks the sentence is more of a slap on the wrist?
Do note that it wasn't reduced TO 9 months, but BY 9 months.
still after only being reduced by 9 months i'd still think it was a slap on the wrist. Not only did he murder his mother which should've been a life sentence the judge claimed that he was hungry yet in the article "He began slicing off parts of her body to flesh out his meals of soup and pasta, a ghoulish culinary regime he continued for a month." he obviously still had edible food using it with the meat to consume so being "hungry" shouldn't have held up in court.
You lack reading comprehension. It must be the effect of too much fapping?
Well, I'd have screwed him down to a board and set him adrift on the nearest ocean, but I suppose that would somehow make ME the crazy one...
So apparently cannibalism carries a sentence of over 14 years and murder carries a sentence of less than 1?
Oops, never mind. Read it wrong. Ignore me.
So, can anyone tell me what the judge's address is? I'm hungry...
I lol'd... More then once... *Sigh* gess the internet does that to you, huh? :P
how could you "lol" at thise stuff ?:|
so I suppose if your best buddies were man slaughtered, laughed at, disfigured, and then eaten just like normal food, you would laugh?
Ur Eating ANIMALS and think this is Disgusting ?? You are in no Way better than him. After all its just Meat ...
You're a retard.
People eat Meat since thousand of Years and when its Human Meat its suddenly bad or what ? :)
The only Thing that is disgusting here is the Fact that it was his own Mother.
ok so eating humans is normal for you... psycho~
No but FUCK whats the Difference? It probably Taste difference than Chicken or whatever but in the End its just fucking Meat ffs...
Humans are humans you vegan pussy.
I think the murder part is a bad thing, Stealing from mom is bad, using the money to gamble and drink is assenine he should be hung by the balls till he's dead.
I'm sure that eating members of your own species leads to that Mad Cow Disease or whatever they call it.
A cannibal tribe were infected with it at one stage somewhere, so they figured that was the problem.
Plus, cannabilism is generally wrong, for ethical reasons, not for real reasons.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuru_(disease)
Spoken like a true chinese who will eat anything aslong as words like medicinal or aphrodisiac is attached to it.
Lol its meat.. But would u ever eat another human being much less ur own mother?!
I've mentioned it before, but if in the right sercumstances, anyone would be on the menu....
I always carry hot sauce with me.....*drool*
lol@retard
You, sir, are an idiot.
Someone needs to give the judge a psychological evaluation
Yah I'm like WTF that's a murder case.
Kill and eat your mom you get 9 months complain about the government they ship you off to Siberia.
Russia really and truly is a backwards place.
14 years and 3 months, not 9.
I read it wrong but still that's crazy.
Hopefully he's going to Siberia and won't survive his sentence.
Read up, someone posted that most likely he wont survive his sentence anyways.
Seems matricide is really dealt with harshly in Russia.
When I first saw the picture I thought it was ice cream, but after a careful look it wasn't what I thought it was. Anyone know where that source is from?
And now onto the story, it is bad enough doing that while insane, but while sane is just beyond belief. I don't care how hungry you are, you just don't do that, well unless you are in extreme circumstances ie boat, no food, no food for a month, only last chance of survival.
Spending all your(mother's) money on booze and none on food. Bad son, murderer, hate those kind of people. Life in jail is not enough for what he have done. But only 15 years for murder and cannibalism, what????
I believe the judge also needed that psychological evaluation.
I'm second to this suggestion
Wow this was pretty ugly--
>Russian
Nevermind, I'm suddenly not surprised anymore. Silly Russians.
stupid americans
SO are you okay with this with 15 year for murdering your mother so that you can buy vodka and gamble?
No really, thank u I really appreciate ur point of view
I lol'd.
I puked.
how could you laugh you fag?
Oh God this is sick.
I would have had him executed via being dragged to death behind a truck as a bullet is too nice.
I'd only be doing this because it's difficult to find meat eating ants during winter.
He's an alcoholic criminal and effing killed his mom and ate her sorry no sympathy here.
The world has gone crazy.
Nothing new, really.
This is just too fucked up.........
Death is not enough for someone like this
Rusia.
You spelled it wrong idiot!
it's Rrusia
i excepted that this was news from russia this time.I guessed right XD
mmmmmm Free Range (chicken?) Breast....
Well, anyone remember Arlo Guthrie's "Alice's Reteraunt" where the narrator is during the process of being drafted found that he'd been arrested for littering?
"And they put me in a room full of Mother Rapers and Father Stabbers... Father Rapers and Mother Stabbers... And they said, Aren't you ashamed you dumped that trash?"
But this guy's in a whole new field.
nom nom nom om nom
How many box tops did that judge need to get that job?
Holy fucking hell that this bowls me over. What a story crawling out of russia. If this shit has happened, what other screwed over stories have happened but never reported since in their eyes it's too normal to report there.
Wtf?
He is Psychologically sane? And the court sympathetic with him? OMG~!! This is ridiculous and the most outrageous news I ever heard. I hope God deliver the Divine punishment on this Diabolical spawn child.
You know the Bible is a big Fairytale and so is God do you ? Hope your old Enough to not believing in such Shit ....
who gives a shit about your opinion?
It couldn't be helped.
In Soviet Russia, you are what HE eats.
lmao you would never even hear people who smoke weed do this kind of thing
blame it on the alcohol~
That's just wrong...
.............this is sick..Russia is stupid..
за слова ответишь, тупой америкос
^ а вот и наглядное подтверждение его словам.
Hmmm eating your mom's frozen corpse... starvation and addiction can really drive a man mad huh?
He had to eat? No, he fucking deserves to die and he should be executed. Degenerate fuck.
Why is it people are more upset about the cannibalism than about the actual murder?
Once a person is dead, they (and including myself, when it happens) are in no position to care about what happens to one's body.
"Oh noes, teh gheys are buttfucking my corpse and cannibals are cooking and eating my dick!"
I'd be worried about other things. "Crap, there really is a God, a Devil, a Heaven, and a Hell. Fuck, I shouldn't have spent so much time on SC -- or, if I was hosed to begin with, I should have spent MORE time on SC!"
....15 years.......
If the mother was a schoolgirl-groping pervert, would she taste like "chikan"?
So cannibalism is semi-legal in Russia?
I hope the world ends sooner.
If the mother was a schoolgirl-groping perver, would she taste like "chikan"?
"Psychological evaluations judged him to be sane and well aware of the nature of his actions." I could careless about that, but are there people sure that let him going around and eat someone when he's hungry. And it seem like in Russia killing your mom isn't much of a big deal.
http://www.sankakucomplex.com/2009/05/20/my-daddy-ate-my-eyes-man-bites-out-sons-eyes/ And it seem like in USA eating your sons eyes isn't much of a big deal.
would that defence work if i ate out a loli??
only if you're really really hungry...
This is like, kinda insane.
I mean you will get the death penalty for murder alone, but 15 years for murder (and cannibalism no less), is a little too lenient.
Someone needs to investigate the Judge for sympathizing with him as the Judge must have eaten his mother too. There is on way someone could only get 15 years for something as hideous at that unless the people who Judged him have done likewise, it seems to me.
Why the legs? It's common to go for the intestines first. Just remember how the animals do it and do it alike.
...What? His own mother? You sick freak. And only 14 years and 3 months? Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear
Why the hell is the judge sympathizing this motherfucker? First he leaches off her,than he murder her and finally he eat her.If life was so hard than there is always a suicide option
Wow...and over here we're locking kids up for taking nude pics of themselves. I thought Russia was supposed to be "cold and hard" x_x...
Spooky.
He should of been executed and get killed by cannibals and see how it feels Sick Fucker!
mmmmm Shredded Humans
Эх Самара-городок.
пацан шёл к успеху.
in Eng: I'm 12 years old and what is this?
апасно коцаны
"Psychological evaluations judged him to be sane and well aware of the nature of his actions."
The judge or the convict?
Wtf?
В Самару ни ногой.
ага.
HE HAD TO EAT?? what about those money spent on gambling?? HE HAD TO EAT! ZOMG. what convenience.joke of the century @_@.
Hungry broke man from Hungary.
okay that joke failed. sorry
I wouldn't be surprised if one of the books in this guy's library (if he hasn't sold it for booze or gambling yet) was To Serve Man...
He didn't need to eat, he needed to be buttraped with a bat. A bat with nails sticking in it. and it must splinter somewhat too.
WTF....eat his mother? Sick person is sick!
Wait, WTF? 15 years for MURDER?! Fucking backwards country. Sounds like some of that famous Russian corruption at work here.
хуясе вот до чего правительство народ довело,уже жрат нечего ппц. ни пенсий ни зарплаты...обидно за родину...
