What people won't do for money!
What a sick person he is.
I am stunned. What does one do with skin, besides sew a "dress" like in Silence of the Lambs? ICK.
At least they caught him!
That's for sure Kav.
Taste like chicken?
Silence of the Lambs. creepy movie but the acting was great!
Oh, that's just nasty. Lampshades and book covers? Maybe some cute little slippers for his kids for around the house? Dog chews?
Or frame some of it and use it for needle point?...
