Most of us don't see dead bodies very often, and while we encounter them for different reasons and have different reactions, very few of us indeed have ever looked upon the corpse of someone whose death we've caused. The act of killing, of destroying a life, is something most people would never consider. It can be hard enough putting down a sick pet or killing an animal for food. But a person?
There are, of course, murderers who kill for money or vengeance. To them, a dead body is an inconvenience, an unavoidable but undesirable concomitant of the killing. Their objective is to end a life, not to produce a corpse. But then, there are other killers, men, and women who kill not just because they desire the death of their victims but because they need their bodies. They are necrophiliacs who have sexual relations with corpses. They are cannibals who consume the flesh of the dead. And there are some who go beyond that. They treat the human corpse like a farmer would treat the carcass of chickens, a butcher a cow, a hunter a deer. They use the human body to make things-food, decorations, and even more utilitarian items. Totally devious and beyond belief...
