A German vampire killer, who drank the blood and ate the flesh of two teenagers before killing them, has been sentenced to life imprisonment
Identified only as a petty thief called Jan O, 26, the murderer admitted the killing of a girl called Nina, 14, and her friend Tobias, 13, outside the town of Bodenfeld in November last year.
His murders shocked Germany and the judge described the crimes as "excessively violent" and "a just about unimaginable dimension of injustice".
At his trial in the University City of Goettingen, a prosecutor told how Jan O wanted to rape Nina - but instead "vampiristic and cannibalistic tendencies" were triggered in him.

Before she was dead he chewed off parts of her face and drank her blood from a neck wound.
"When she was on the ground I didn't want sex any more but only flesh and blood. The taste of it made me addicted," the Daily Mail quoted Jan O as witting in his police confession.
He returned several times to the corpse with his mobile phone and filmed himself lying next to his victim, stroking her constantly.
Five days later he killed Tobias and defiled his body in the same way. He later told police that he mistook Tobias for a girl because of his long hair.
Both youngsters had been strangled, stabbed with a knife and cut with a beer bottle.
