Too much crazy for one story....
Cannibals?lured victim to southeastern Oklahoma with the promise of free castration surgery
Tulsa World:
Poteau, OK ?Two men were accused Wednesday in a criminal charge of performing an illegal castration on a volunteer at their cabin in the woods and then keeping the body parts in a freezer, possibly to eat later.
Bob Lee Allen, 53, and Thomas Evan Gates, 42, were arrested Oct. 15 after going to a hospital in McAlester to try to visit the victim, LeFlore County Sheriff Rodney Derryberry said Tuesday.
�I can�t say it�s cult activity,?the sheriff told reporters. �It is something that we have never in my career run across in this part of the country. It is borderline some type of activity. ?We know there�s a lot of rumors out there, but at this time there�s no danger to the public.?br />
The 28-year-old victim had flown from ******ia to Dallas and then was driven to the cabin in southeastern Oklahoma for the surgery, a sheriff�s deputy reported in a court affidavit. The victim had made contact with Allen through a website while searching online about castrations and related terms.
The victim further stated that Allen �had six more clients on the way to have the same operation?and that Allen �informed him that he had a freezer with body parts and showed him pictures on his phone.?br />
The victim said Allen took him to the hospital the next day because he had a lot of bleeding after first telling him, �No morgue. No ER.?He said Allen told him that if he passed out or died that he would dump him in the woods, according to the affidavit. He said Allen instructed him to say �he done it to himself?once they arrived at the hospital.
He told medical personnel that the two men �tried to get him to participate in cannibalism,?according to the affidavit.
Sheriff investigators became involved Oct. 14 after the hospital reported the �surgery.?In a search of the cabin Oct. 15, investigators found a plastic bag �with what appeared to be testicles?in a deep freeze in a bedroom.
