In 2012, Gilberto Valle, a New York City Police Officer, dubbed “Cannibal Cop” by the media, was accused of plotting to kidnap, torture, rape, kill, cook and eat a least a hundred women, including his wife. He discussed his dark fantasies in fetish chat rooms online and in one instance, boasted he was going to have “girl meat” for Thanksgiving. Valle has since maintained that it was just fantasy, and he never intended to follow through with these sinister acts. So, what is the fine line between intent to do harm and just one’s sinister fantasies?

In July of 1999, twenty-one-year-old Barry Winchell an infantry solider in the United States Army was murdered at the Fort Campbell Army base while he slept outside of his barracks by fellow soldier Calvin Glover for dating a transgender woman. Barry’s murder brought to light the military’s homophobic policy of “don’t’ ask, don’t tell” which did not allow members of the U.S. military who were homosexual, bisexual, or transgender to be open about their sexual orientation. This is the horrifying true story of United States Army solider Barry Winchell being murdered because of who he chose to love.
