Spanish ‘Cannibal Of Las Ventas’ Convicted Of Strangling And Eating His Mother ‘Piece By Piece’

"Yes, my mother is in here, dead. Me and the dog have been eating her, bit by bit."

Madrid police are no strangers to vile crimes and serial killers, having dealt with the "Playing Card Killer" in the early 2000s and the necrophiliac "Beggarkiller" in the 1980s. Still, the scene they came across in February 2019 was beyond belief. Alberto Sánchez Gómez murdered his mother after an argument, then in an attempt to hide what he had done, chopped her into more than 1,000 pieces with a carpenter saw — and ate most of them with the family dog.

The Madrid neighborhood of Las Ventas is best known for its famous bullfighting ring. But its sunny, picturesque streets hid something horrible — a cannibal. A local man was just convicted of killing and eating his own mother.

The so-called Cannibal of Las Ventas, Alberto Sánchez Gómez, killed his mother, María Soledad Gómez, in early 2019. According to the Madrid prosecutor’s office, the unemployed waiter strangled her from behind after an argument.

Although Sánchez, 28, later argued in court that he was experiencing a psychotic episode at the time of the murder, jurors decided that his subsequent actions showed cold logic.

After his mother was dead, Sánchez went and got a carpenter’s saw and two kitchen knives. Carefully, he cut up his mother’s body into 1,000 pieces. Some pieces he stored in Tupperware containers. Others, he left around the house or threw into the trash. Police later found his mother’s head, hands, and heart on her bed.

Over the next 15 days, Sánchez ate the remains. Sometimes, he cooked the flesh. Other times, he ate it raw. He consumed his mother, according to Spanish newspaper El Pais , to “try and make it go away.”

Meanwhile, his mother’s friends had started to worry. They hadn’t seen María Soledad Gómez for over a month. So, in February 2019, police came to her apartment after an alarmed friend notified them of her absence.

The police knew about Sánchez — and his mother. Sánchez had been arrested 12 times for mistreating her and for breaching restraining orders. But they were still shocked by the grisly scene in the apartment.

Police found pieces of María Soledad Gómez in Tupperware in the fridge, tucked into drawers, and scattered around the house. And Sánchez quickly confessed to his shocking crime.

At his trial, which started in April 2021, a police officer testified that Sánchez came clean almost immediately.

“[Sánchez] began to tell us as he was being transferred to a police station that he had strangled [his mother] from behind,” the officer said.

“He also said he had eaten parts of her body, some cooked and some raw, and had given some pieces to the dog.”

But Sánchez has argued that he wasn’t mentally sound at the time of his mother’s murder. In his telling, he had started hearing voices while watching TV. These voices instructed him to “kill your mum” and suggested he dismember her body.

Sánchez claims that the voices sounded like neighbors, acquaintances, and celebrities. He insists that he has no memory of the murder — or how he ate her remains for two weeks.

In fact, Sánchez does have a long history of mental illness. His brother testified that Sánchez had several psychotic episodes in 2015 after he started doing drugs. And he was admitted three times to La Princesa Hospital in Madrid.

“I’m very repentant,” Sánchez told the court on the last day of his trial. “I suffer anxiety from the moment I wake up.

“I think of my mum and I’m absolutely heartbroken.”

Despite his final plea, the court rejected Sánchez’s argument that he was “psychologically disturbed.” After hearing from psychologists that testified that Sánchez can distinguish what is “right and wrong, he just doesn’t care” the jurors found him guilty.

As a result, Sánchez was sentenced to 15 years in prison for the gruesome murder. He will also have to serve an additional five months for the desecration of a corpse and pay his brother $73,000 in compensation.

However, Sánchez and his legal team will appeal the sentence. Their next step is to bring the case to the Superior Court of Justice of Madrid to argue that Sánchez wasn’t of a sound mind when he killed his mother — which would reduce his sentence by three years and six months.

Whether or not Sánchez’s appeal is successful, it seems that he will walk free again in 15 years — when he’s 43 years old. By then, perhaps Las Ventas will once again be known for bullfighting, and not as the home of a cannibal murderer.

"The skin hung from my back like a rugged cloth"

"The skin hung from my back like a rugged cloth" Sumiteru Taniguchi was 16 years old when the atomic bomb fell over Nagasaki on August 9, 1945. He worked as a letter carrier when the blast threw him from his bicycle. He recalled: "When I woke up, the skin of my left arm from the shoulder to the tip of my fingers was trailing like a rag. I put my hand to my back and found my clothing was gone, and there was slimy, burnt skin all over my hand." The heat from the bomb had melted the skin on his back and left arm, he remembered that he did not feel any pain. Confused and disoriented, Taniguchi searched for help in the chaos: "Bodies burned black, voices calling for help from burning and collapsed buildings, people with flesh falling off and their guts falling out... This place became a sea of fire. It was hell." He stumbled upon a group of survivors which helped cutting off loose parts of the skin, and then carried to a hill to rest among other wounded. ...

In September 1943, his patrol was sent to Japanese-held New Guinea, to recon the Japanese forces stationed there. Siffleet and two other Australian soldiers were captured by local natives friendly to the Japanese and turned over to the Japanese. All three men were interrogated, tortured, and confined for approximately two weeks before being taken down to Aitape Beach on the afternoon of 24 October 1943. Bound and blindfolded, surrounded by Japanese and native onlookers, they were forced to the ground and executed by beheading, on the orders of Vice-Admiral...

History’s Worst Execution Methods: Flaying

History’s Worst Execution Methods: Flaying Flaying — better known as “skinning alive” — has a long and grotesque history. Records of the practice exist as far back as the Neo-Assyrian Empire (beginning in 911 B.C.), but it has cropped up in most civilizations at one time or another, including Medieval Europe (where it tended to be used as a punishment for traitors) and in the ritual human sacrifices made by the Aztecs in Mexico (the Aztecs, at least, are believed to have skinned the body after the sacrifice had been made). Various techniques have been utilized in the many different cultures in which flaying has been employed, but the basis remains the same: Slowly, excruciatingly slicing the skin from the body while keeping the victim alive for as long as possible (and when feasible, removing the skin intact). Rendering Of Flaying Wikimedia Commons Carvings from the Assyrian period show the process beginning with incisions to the thighs or buttocks, while the European method — pictured...

This historic photograph was taken in Nagasaki, in September 1945, shortly after the atomic bombing of this city on August 9, 1945

This historic photograph was taken in Nagasaki, in September 1945, shortly after the atomic bombing of this city on August 9, 1945. A 10-year-old boy stands military stretched and waits his turn at the funeral bonfire to cremate his little brother who died in the bombing. A soldier from the funeral team noticed the boy was tired of standing with the burden and offered to lay the dead child on the ground. He replied, "It's not heavy. This isn't hard for me. This is my brother.'' The author of the shot Joe O’Donnell wrote in his memoir, “I saw a boy walking for about ten years. He carried a child on his back. Those days in Japan, we often saw children playing with their younger siblings by sitting them on their backs, but this boy was clearly different. I thought he was here for some good reason. He had no shoes on. His face was all hard. The child's head was spinning from side to side as if he were sleeping. The boy just stood there for five or ten minutes. Peop...

August 8, 1982. A line drive foul ball hits a four year old boy in the head at Fenway August 8, 1982. A line drive foul ball hits a four year old boy in the head at Fenway. Jim Rice, realizing in a flash that it would take EMTs too long to arrive and cut through the crowd, sprang from the dugout and scooped up the boy. He laid the boy gently on the dugout floor, where the Red Sox medical team began to treat him. When the boy arrived at the hospital 30 minutes later, doctors said, without a doubt that Jim's prompt actions saved the boy's life. Jim returned to the game in a blood-stained uniform. A real badge of courage. After visiting the boy in the hospital, and realizing the family was of modest means, he stopped by the business office and instructed that the bill be sent to him!

Prisoner Joe Arridy, who had an IQ of 46, gives his toy train to another prisoner before he is executed for a terrible crime he did not commit, 1939

Prisoner Joe Arridy, who had an IQ of 46, gives his toy train to another prisoner before he is executed for a terrible crime he did not commit, 1939 Joe Arridy was a man who lived in Pueblo, Colorado and his parents were Syrian. While growing up, Joe displayed signs that he was severely intellectually disabled. He began to talk a lot later than the average toddler and he could not form long sentences, instead he spoke a few words at a time. In psychology, this can be a sign that cognitive capabilites in a child are low, which means problem solving, counting, understanding basic concepts and knowing right from wrong will often be very challenging for that individual. Joe attended one year of elementary school before being pulled out as it was too difficult for him. Joe's father then admitted him to the State Home. Joe lived here on and off for a few years. It was also reported that Joe was mistreated and often beaten by the local neighbourhood kids. Joe, at the age of 21, left Puebl...

John Scopes arrested for teaching evolution, May 5, 1925

John Scopes arrested for teaching evolution, May 5, 1925 History Science teacher John Scopes is prosecuted for teaching the theory of evolution at a Tennessee public school, 1925 The Scopes Trial, also known as the Scopes Monkey Trial, was the 1925 prosecution of science teacher John Scopes for teaching evolution in a Tennessee public school, which a recent bill had made illegal. The trial featured two of the best-known orators of the era, William Jennings Bryan and Clarence Darrow, as opposing attorneys. The trial was viewed as an opportunity to challenge the constitutionality of the bill, to publicly advocate for the legitimacy of Darwin’s theory of evolution, and to enhance the profile of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). The Scopes trial, formally The State of Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes, and commonly referred to as the Scopes Monkey Trial, was an American legal case from July 10 to July 21, 1925, in which a high school teacher, John T. Scopes, was accused of violating...

IN 1998 ,SONY ACCIDENTALLY SOLD 700,000 CAMCORDERS THAT COULD SEE THROUGH PEOPLE’S CLOTHES

In 1998, Sony accidentally sold 700,000 camcorders that had the technology to see through people’s clothes Yes You heard it right,in year 1998 sony sold 700,00 camcorder that had technology to see through your clothes,well what was that? lets check out.. The cameras had special lenses that use infrared light (IR) to see through some types of clothing,such as on dark colored, thin clothing – like swimsuits. The main factor is how well the fabric absorbs IR light waves. It’s not for regular digicams, but rather for camcorders with a IR night vision mode, and the resolution is low. Sony recalled the camcorders when they found out about this, but the night vision camcorders that they subsequently released,some people figured out how to modify the camera to get the see-through-clothing functionality and hundreds of the modified cameras are for sale on the Internet. The camera with all the filters sells for about $700 brand new, and is easy to obtain.Sony said it has no responsibility f...

A cop trying to pin down a striker during the RCA Victor (Consumer electronics company) strike at Camden, New Jersey, USA, 2 July 1936.

A cop trying to pin down a striker during the RCA Victor (Consumer electronics company) strike at Camden, New Jersey, USA, 2 July 1936. Was unable to find a historical retelling of events but by looking at some articles from the time I was able to piece some things together from Time and the New York Post. It appears the main demands by the strikers was an abolition of RCA's company union (a worker organization which is dominated or unduly influenced by an employer, and is therefore not an independent trade union), and a 20% wage increase. Things started off peacefully with the strikers picketing the plant and the strikers and the RCA trying to drown out each other's music that was being played on loudspeaker. RCA then started to employ strikebreakers (scabs) and then things appeared to have escalated from there. With strikers accused of “jabbing girl employees with pins” and hurling eggs filled with paint and the scabs were accused of throwing red pepper, hot metal and “light ...

Hannelore Schmatz.

Hannelore Schmatz. On October 2, 1979, 39-year-old Hannelore Schmatz and her team led by her husband, had reached the summit of Mount Everest via the southern route. On their way down, the expedition was forced to stop about 100 meters shortof Camp IV (there are four camps before the summit), where Schmatz collapsed and died from exhaustion. Another climber, American Ray Genet, also died, but the rest of the team survived. In the ensuing years, Schmatz’s body haunted people climbing the southern route. Her body was recognizable because it appeared to be sitting casually, still dressed in the clothes she died in. Also, even though she was dead, her eyes were openand her hair would blow in the wind. In 1984, a Nepalese police officer and a Sherpa tried to move Schmatz’s body, but they died in the process. After about 20 years, the wind pushed Schmatz’s body into a valley below where it remains to this day. Undiluted Relationship and information bring you undiluted serial killer story, se...
