Anthony Morley, Who Ate Gay Lover’s Flesh Arrested for Murder

An erstwhile Mr. Gay UK was found guilty today of slaying a former boyfriend before carving flesh from his thigh, flavoring it with fresh herbs, frying it in olive oil and then feasting on it.

Anthony Morley, 36, cut Damian Oldfield’s throat before stabbing him several times after they went to bed jointly in April this year. He also left a Lloyds TSB bank card over a injury on his victim’s chest.

Morley, a chef, was apprehended after he walked into a takeaway food shop near his home in Leeds wearing a gory dressing gown and flip-flops and told staff that he had killed someone who had attempted to rape him.

As the jury returned a verdict of guilty, after debating for two hours and twenty minutes, members of the thronged public gallery cheered up and clapped. Morley clasped his hands and bowed his head and several jury members left the court in tears.
