Maryland College Student charged with killing, eating man's brain, heart- WTF?

The 21-year-old college student allegedly told detectives that he hadn't just killed the man who'd lived with his family for months, but had eaten his heart and portions of his brain. The victim's severed head and hands were found in the men's Harford County home; more remains were left in a trash container outside a church.

Authorities outlined the macabre circumstances Thursday in charges against Alexander Kinyua, an electrical engineering major at Morgan State University and member of his school's ROTC program, of first-degree murder in the death of 37-year-old Kujoe Bonsafo Agyei-Kodie, a Ghanaian national and a former master's degree student.

Kinyua's father reported that Agyei-Kodie went missing last Friday after going for a jog, but the investigation eventually led back to the family home. Kinyua was being held Thursday without bond, and authorities were exploring whether others participated in the crime or knew about it, based on what they called inconsistencies in statements made by the suspect's family.

With a search-and-seizure warrant for the location, deputies were able to locate the head and hands on the main floor of the house, according to charging documents.

It will be several weeks before toxicology tests reveal what drugs, if any, prompted 31-year-old Rudy Eugene to devour a homeless man’s face during an unprovoked attack Saturday afternoon on the MacArthur Causeway. When Eugene ignored orders to stop, police shot him dead.

I'm thinking that something like meth or "bath salts" must be involved, or maybe there's some new drug that's leading to these incidences.

with these outbreaks.

Foolishness aside, something is going on with this 'eating' thing.
