Texan arrested for seeking girl for cannibalism

A Texan has been arrested after advertising online that he wanted to try necrophilia and cannibalism with a young girl. Alexander Barter, 21, was arrested after an undercover cop posing as a father willing to offer his daughter responded to the post on the dark web, police in Florida said Tuesday.

The investigation began when a Brevard County police officer noticed a bizarre ad on the internet. “I’d like to try necrophilia and cannibalism and see how it feels to take a life,” Barter’s post read. The officer contacted Barter and made out that he was a man willing to make his underage daughter available to him.

“I’m not into role playing. I want to actually rape, kill and cannibalize her,” Barter warned as he accepted the man’s offer. The officer traveled to Texas to meet Barter, who put up no fight as he was arrested on October 19. He even thanked the police for preventing him from going ahead with the plan, because he said he could not control himself, said a statement.
