As far as weird people go these aren't relatively bad. There was a German man who advertised on the Internet looking for a person to kill, sodomize and eat. Not only did he not get instantly thrown into an asylum he got hundreds of answers and had to whittle down a list of volunteers! When he finally did kill and eat someone they couldn't convict him of murder because his victim volunteered. He eventually did get retried on a murder charge after saner heads prevailed and he was finally convicted of murder after his original sentence of 8 years was tossed.
