A hotel restaurant in Anambra, Nigeria has been shuttered by authorities for serving human flesh. According to the BBC, suspicious residents told police of rumors that the restaurant was cooking human meat for customers. Police then raided the restaurant, where they discovered fresh human heads that were still bleeding. The blood was in the process of being drained into a plastic bag.
 
In addition to the illegal meat, authorities discovered automatic weapons, grenades, and cell phones. Ten people were arrested in conjunction with the crimes. One resident said, "Every time I went to the market, I observed strange activities going on in the hotel. People who were never cleanly dressed and who looked a bit strange made their way in and out of the hotel, making me very suspicious of their activities. I am not surprised at the shocking revelation."
 
A priest who ate at the restaurant was surprised when presented with a bill of 700 Naira, or roughly $3.50 (Tens of millions of people in Nigeria subsist on less than $1 a day). "The attendant noticed my reaction and told me it was the small piece of meat I had eaten that made the bill scale that high," he said. "I did not know I had been served with human meat, and that it was that expensive."

Jesus Christ of Nazareth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I have now seen and heard everything. This is an appropriate time to swear. But...Lord have mercy. May the souls of those victimized rest in peace. Why does it seem like the world is getting crazier and crazier and crazier???? In between ISIS, Boko Haram, and this, this world seems headed to hell in a hand-basket. There are too many psychopaths running around all over the place. The scientist who comes up with an effective detection mechanism should get the biggest nobel PEACE prize, a special one that they have never given anyone, for he'll have done far more for peace than any of the others.

Shocking, but it happens in Kenya, Congo, Rwanda, North Korea, China, France... not just because of poverty but shockingly, sick rich people eat baby flesh.

When I was a little girl at church, I watched testimonies from the missionaries who had smuggled out footages of children being cooked and served in North Korean shops. After that, I joined every charity I could think of at the time volunteering: World Vision, Amnesty, Legacy etc.

The world can be shockingly terrifying.
