On the evening of March 9, the two men went up to the bedroom in Meiwes' rambling timbered farmhouse. In March 2001 Meiwes advertised on the internet for a "young well-built man, who wanted to be eaten". The desire grew stronger after the death of his mother in 1999, prosecutor Marcus Köhler said. Yesterday German prosecutors described how Meiwes had fantasised about killing and devouring someone, including his classmates, from the age of eight. "I always had the fantasy and in the end I fulfilled it," Meiwes told the court on the first day of his trial for murder in the nearby city of Kassel. It was, he said, something he had wanted to do for a long time. In one of the most extraordinary trials in German criminal history, the self-confessed cannibal admitted that he had met a 43-year-old Berlin engineer, Bernd Brandes, after advertising on the internet, and had chopped him up and eaten him.
