Yesterday, a NYPD police officer was arrested by the FBI for plotting to "kidnap, cook and eat women". Little information has been released so far, but it appears the officer was arrested as he attempted to carry out his plan.

Today Gawker has published some horrifying and bizarre messages exchanged on an instant messaging services between the 28-year-old NYPD officer and his two, as yet unnamed co-conspirators. Below is an extract:

CC-1: It's really hard to dislocate (lock) a jaw. Also, how would we put her over the fire, spitting kills the girls. Have to put her into a kind of cage. What is your favorite cut of meat?

VALLE: I was thinking of tying her body onto some kind of apparatus .. cook her over a low heat, keep her alive as long as possible.
