New York Policeman Arrested On Charges That He Planned To Slow-Roast Some Ladies

Well, this is pretty much the grossest thing. It happened in neither Florida nor Ohio, though. Rather, it unfolded in the nation's greatest city. Reports The New York Times:

A New York police officer was arrested Wednesday in Queens by the Federal Bureau of Investigation after he discussed cooking and eating female body parts, according to a criminal complaint.

That's pretty vile. But it gets worse. Of course it does. Here's the criminal complaint, documenting an alleged instant messenger chat between the arrested officer, Gilberto Valle, and an unnamed co-conspirator:

CC-1: It's really hard to dislocate (lock) a jaw. Also, how would we put her over the fire, spitting kills the girl. Have to put her into a kind of cage. What is your favorite cut of meat?

VALLE: I was thinking of tying her body onto some kind of apparatus . . . cook her over a low heat, keep her alive as long as possible.

Oh. Good lord.
