Texas Man Allegedly Killed His Girlfriend Then Boiled Parts of Her Body

Local police officials arrested a man from Tyler, Texas accused of murdering, mutilating and allegedly eating his 21-yea old girlfriend.

After responding to a 911 call announcing the murder, deputies rushed to the place of the incident where they found a horrible scene: a human ear boiling in a pot and a hunk of flesh on a fork sitting on a plate on the kitchen table.

Christopher Lee McCuin, 25, called 911 Saturday night, according to Smith County Sheriff J.B. Smith who also added that officials came to the home of the suspects’ mother to find the mutilated body of Jana Shearer, his girlfriend.

McCuin was scheduled to be arraigned Monday on a capital murder charge. He spent Sunday night in solitary confinement at a jail on a $2 million bond and did not have an attorney, officials said according to the Associated Press.

It was not clear whether the suspect did consume any part of the woman’s body.

“We cannot prove that he did. He was either going to, had been or led us to think that he was doing it. I'm not shocked anymore – surprised that people can do such horrible things to each other – but not shocked. I've seen it all. This isn't the worst we've had. But it is my first cannibalism,” Smith said Sunday.

Officials also consider McCuin guilty of stabbing a man early Saturday. The man was described as the boyfriend of his estranged wife.

Officials believe that the girl was kidnapped from her home late Friday when her mother saw her get into McCuin’s truck. He then drove to his estranged wife’s home where he stabbed his wife’s boyfriend, William Veasley, 42. He was then in intensive care Sunday night. When the deputies arrived, McCuin succeeded to run away and to escape after a short chase. He was not seen until Saturday morning, when he went to the home where he stayed with his mother and called her into the garage to see what he had done.

His mother and her boyfriend saw the remains of Shearer and then fled the home and came to announce the crime, authorities said. McCuin, himself called 911 after, announcing he had killed his girlfriend and was boiling parts of her body.

Shearer seemed to have died from blunt trauma to her head, Smith said. Officials do not know for sure where McCuin killed his girlfriend.

McCuin is known for his criminal record, which includes driving while intoxicated, disorderly conduct, public intoxication and a 2003 aggravated assault with a deadly weapon charges. Moreover, last Friday, his estranged wife came to the Sheriff’s Department to file papers accusing him of assault.
