Eating Disorders and Serial Killers?

Question

I have to do a paper about eating disoders. I want to link that and serial killers. Can ya help me out???

Answer 1

Some killers have claimed eating disorders such an ex. supervisor in San Francisco a few years ago who claimed his over eating of twinkies caused him to kill the supervisor Harvy Milk who took his place.
It worked as he got off with a small sentence which amounted to a slap on the back.
The are cases of serial killers(usually women) who claimed their obhesity on violent rages which resulted in deaths.
Jeffery Dalmer woudl be a prime example and so would a the guy in Germany who made head lines after a victim came forth voluntary to be killed and eaten. He and his killer attempted to his his penis raw after the killer cut it off, but had to cook it:):).
I would say those two wer extreme cases of eating disorders.
History is full of peopl with cannibalist urges.

Answer 2

The link between the two lies in obsessiveness and complusiveness, as well as lack of appropriate coping skills. There is also an element of anxiety issues there, as well. Some people do strange or unhealthy things to relieve an anxiety. They are compelled to do this. Anorexics and bulemics use food and body "control" as a means of being able to control something to relieve the stress of not being able to control other aspects of their life. Serial killers have some other control issues, and use murder and torture to relieve anxiety of some other sort.
