Cannibal Served Human Flesh During Barbecue

A convicted child killer was accused of chopping up the body of one of his young victims and serving it to neighbors in ‘little boy pot pies’.

Nathaniel Bar-Jonah hosted regular ‘cook-outs’ at his home in Massachusetts, feeding his guests burgers, meat pies and casseroles.

Whenever someone asked about the ‘peculiar taste’ of a particular dish, he brushed off their concerns by claiming the deer meat was to blame.

But what they didn’t know was that their host had a history of sadistic crimes – and a twisted obsession with the taste of human flesh.

Born in 1957 in Worcester, Massachusetts, Nathaniel Benjamin Levi Bar-Jonah was described as having exhibited an extreme ‘insatiable appetite’ from a young age.

Aged just seven, he is said to have started ripping scabs off until they bled then sucking the blood from newly reopened cuts.

Having required psychiatric help for disturbing behaviour in his teens, Bar-Johah’s activities took an even more worrying turn in the 1970s when he started luring children away and raping them.

Decades later, while police were desperately hunting for missing schoolboy Zachary Ramsay, who had vanished on his way to class, several neighbours attended one of Bar-Jonah’s cook-outs.

When one woman complained the meat was ‘repulsive’, he told her he had ‘hunted, killed, butchered and wrapped’ it himself.

He was later suspected of having abused her child and cannibalised the remains.

Bar-Jonah was working part-time at a kitchen at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana when Ramsay went missing. Some speculated that he was cooking some of the child’s remains and feeding them to his co-workers to get rid of evidence.

A roommate said Ramsay was not found because he had been ‘chopped up’ and scattered in different locations.

FBI agents recovered notebooks in which Bar-Jonah described torturing children and eating them.

Bar-Jonah was sentenced to 130 years behind bars without parole for kidnapping, aggravated assault and sexual assault of several kids. He died in 2008 in prison.
