On Video, Accused Killer Describes How He Fried, Ate Victim
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — A man accused of killing three Kansas City, Kan., men in 2001 told investigators in a videotaped confession that voices in his head told him he would die if he didn’t eat human flesh. In an hour-long videotape played for a Kansas jury Wednesday, Marc V. Sappington, 25, told detectives he started hearing voices after smoking the hallucinogenic drug PCP in 2001. He said he only heard the voices while under the influence of drugs.

“They started telling me if I didn’t eat, I was going to die,” Sappington said in the videotape. “They said I had to eat flesh and blood if I want to live.”

Sappington is charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Terry T. Green, 25; Michael Weaver Jr., 22; and Alton “Fred” Brown Jr., 16, in April 2001.continued>>>
