German 'vampire' jailed for life

A court in Germany has ruled that a 26-year-old man who murdered two teenagers, chewing on parts of one of them and drinking her blood, will never roamfree again.

Jan O. was given a life sentence by the court in Goettingen, central Germany on Monday. He will be sent to a psychiatric unit and will never be released because of the danger he posed to the public.The defendant had admitted to strangling 14-year-old Nina last November, drinking her blood and chewing bits of flesh from her neck in order, the court found, to "satisfy his sexual desires."Five days later he strangled 13-year-old Tobias when the boy stumbled across Nina's body in woodland. He initially thought the boy was a girl because of his long hair.Presiding judge Ralf Guenther said that the alcoholic and drug addict had committed "unimagineable crimes, taking a daughter from her mother and a son from his parents."Source: The Korea Herald/ANN
