WORCESTER, MASS. - A British man who admitted planning to kidnap, torture and eat at least one child using a sound-proofed dungeon he built in his home in Massachusetts was sentenced to nearly 27 years in U.S. prison on Tuesday.
Geoffrey Portway, 40, a British citizen, was sentenced by Judge Timothy Hillman at U.S. district court in Worcester after pleading guilty in May to charges related to child pornography and plotting a kidnapping and violent crime.
“The long and serious sentence ... reflects the serious nature of the crimes that he committed, and the fact that these are not victimless crimes,” U.S. Attorney Carmen Ortiz told reporters outside the courthouse. “We got there just in time, and I’m grateful for that.”
Last year, federal agents investigating crimes against children discovered the sound-proofed dungeon, a child-size homemade coffin, a steel cage, a steel-topped table, butcher kits and restraints in the basement of Portway’s Worcester residence, according to prosecutors.

Our children will look back and wonder what all the fuss was about. /sarc
child-size homemade coffin,...If he was going to eat the little barsteds, why the coffin? Throw the bones in?
So he’s guilty of plotting but not doing?
Cannibalism because all cultures and religions are equal.
“Don’t impose your morality on me.”
“I have to be true to myself.”
“Cannibals eating people is no different than Christians having a steak.”
“What difference does it make?”
“I was for cannibalism before I was against cannibalism.”
“The future must not belong to those that slander cannibalism.”
“They were asking to be eaten.”
Not only legal, but holding any opinion less than complete celebration of canibalism will be a “hate crime”.
Probably watched too many slasher movies.
Leftists arguing for other removal of moral guardrails have no leg to stand on in opposition to cannibalism.
Children, the other white meat.
I have read articles about illegal aliens getting off from hit and run deaths because of ‘cultural misunderstandings’, why not this guy?
lol
There’s not any difference.
“Geoffrey Portway, 40, a British citizen”
Geez. We get this guy and Piers Morgan? I’m beginning to notice a pattern.
They are already championing pedophilia in defending a 19 year old lesbian having a sexual relation with a 14 year old. What else can they not approve?
Good thing you added the /sarc tag because otherwise I’d say you were just being prophetic.
Just parroting the tired, false slogan of the Gaystapo for effect.
that's racist!!
