Update 2, 5/31: A Maryland man was just arrested on charges that he ate a man's heart and brain.

Update, 5/31: Our order was canceled by the third-party company that handles the Herald's photo orders.

Original post, 5/29:
If you went anywhere near social media over the weekend, you've already heard about Rudy Eugene, the man police say took off all his clothes and ate the face of a homeless man in Miami on Saturday afternoon. When Eugene ignored a police officer telling him to stop, the officer shot him -- and Eugene kept eating, and reportedly growled at the officer, who then shot him again and killed him.

The homeless man lived, but his future is still uncertain.

The Miami Herald looks to have broken the original story, and it also has a photo of Eugene lying on the sidewalk after the shooting, which -- good news! -- you can purchase an 8x10 glossy of for $24.95. You can also put it on a coffee mug for $14.95 or a T-shirt for $21.95.


When you take into account how horrifying the crime was, the Herald photo is relatively tame -- it shows, from a distance, Eugene's corpse on the sidewalk beneath the MacArthur Causeway where he was killed. But there are other pictures... and they're much worse. Our sister paper down in Miami has one, but if you want to see two more, we have rather unfortunately found them.
