And here’s some more disturbing news for your Monday: A Harford County, Md. man who was accused of killing a man then eating his heart and part of his brain pleaded guilty but not criminally responsible for his crimes today.

Alexander Kinyua, 22, was arrested last year for the brutal murder of Kujoe Bonsafo Agyei-Kodie, a family friend that had been living at his house. The murder occurred mere weeks after Kinyua was arrested for beating a fellow Morgan State University student with a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire, which left the student with a fractured skull and blind in one eye.

In both cases, the Harford County court found him guilty but not criminally responsible for the crimes, citing mental illness as the contributing factor to his outrageous crimes.

The Baltimore Sun has the full story on the verdict:

Prosecutors said that after consulting with an outside psychiatric expert, they had to concede that Kinyua was not criminally responsible for his actions at the time of the murder because of his mental health problems.

Currently, Kinyua is being held at Clifton T. Perkins Hospital in Jessup, Md.. It’s not known how long he’ll be there, but considering how heinous and severe his crimes were, it’s safe to assume he’ll be undergoing mental treatment in some hospital or another for most of his life.
