A Filipino cannibal who killed and ate a priest said people should no longer fear him because he turned vegetarian during his time in prison.
Noberto Manero has been released from jail after serving a 12-year sentence for murdering the Italian priest.
When he was freed, he said he wanted to move to an area where there were few priests, claiming he "no longer has a taste for men of the cloth".
Manero told reporters he had converted to Islam and become a vegetarian while in prison, the News of the World newspaper reports.
He said: "It is true that I ate one priest but that was a long time ago. I no longer have a taste for men of the cloth. People need not fear me for I am older now and wiser and I eat only cabbage and lentils.
"During my time in prison, I converted to Islam and became a vegetarian so it would be strictly against my beliefs to eat anyone at all now. I have also asked my parole officer to move me to the north because tere are very few priests there."

So if he no longer has a taste for men of the cloth, Why does he not want to be near them?
Sounds to me like he can't trust himself. |

Yeah, it sounds to me as if this guy is putting a bit too much emphasis on the whole priest angle....
And anyway, i practiced Islam for awhile myself, and though the ban on pork is written in stone, I do not remember the Koran addressing the issue of cannibalism per se. It may be ok to eat peaple as long as you are not responsible for thier deaths. Either way, this guy sounds more than a little fruity, and would bet my bottom dollar that one day in the future he will decide that his lentil soup could use a leg bone or two for 'flavor'. Any takers on that bet? Keep us posted shy!
And as the walls come down
And as I look in your eyes
My fear begins to fade Recalling all of the times...
I have died.
And will die.
It's all right.
I don't mind.
