Chinese woman boiled man's head to cure daughter's psychiatric problems
A Chinese woman boiled a man's head in a soup because she believed it would cure her daughter's psychiatric problems, a local newspaper reported on Tuesday.
I have so many questions/comments on this one! What was the daughters diagnosis? Human head & duck soup? What else do you add? I like water chestnuts and bean sprouts, bok choy is always a nice addition to a Chinese dish. Does the head have to have hair on it or do you shave it first? Is the soup served with those thin crispy noodles? Cause I like those. :biggrin1: Seriously though, I could not eat anything that contained a human body part. :yuck:
Talk about the treatment being worse than the disease! :yikes:
Am I the only one that thinks maybe the mother was the one who was mentally ill and the daughter may have been fine?
A Chinese woman boiled a man's head in a soup because she believed it would cure her daughter's psychiatric problems, a local newspaper reported on Tuesday.
Lin Zongxiu, from the southwestern province of Sichuan, heard in 2008 that soup made with a mans head could help cure her daughter who had suffered from psychiatric problems for years, the Chengdu Commercial newspaper reported. Lin and her husband decided to enlist the help of a man in December who knocked unconscious a drunk 76-year-old passer-by before beheading him, the paper claimed. The couple then gave their 25-year-old daughter soup made from the mans head, and duck.
A local court sentenced the murderer to death with a two-year reprieve on Monday, and Lin was convicted of helping to destroy evidence that included the culprits bloody clothes and shoes, the paper said. The murderers reprieve means that his sentence will likely be commuted to life in prison as long as he commits no further offences in the next two years.
