A male nurse with a cannibalism fetish plotted to meet a 14-year-old girl to behead, cook and eat her after having sex, a court has heard.

Dale Bolinger is alleged to have contacted ‘Eva’ online, where he boasted of having already eaten a 39-year-old woman and a girl of five.

The 57-year-old bought an axe and arranged to meet Eva, a Mexican living in Germany, at Ashford International train station.

The day before he sent her a message saying: ‘I’ll eat everything from your feet to your face. You’ll be completely consumed.’


However, the girl did not turn up and Bolinger, whose online name was meatmarketman, was arrested in February last year after an FBI tip-off.



Police uncovered his boast about the five-year-old, in which he said: ‘Tried her alive but not great, could only taste the blood so I snapped her neck and cut her up and ate her over about three weeks.

‘Used her bones to make stock and have only run out about six months ago.’

Bolinger, from Canterbury, denies sexual grooming but admits a separate assault in 2010.

He was arrested at his home in Kent after a transatlantic investigation of internet postings about the killing and eating of women.

The jury at Canterbury crown court heard extracts of his alleged conversation with Eva, posted on the Dark Fetish Network.

In one exchange Bolinger asked her whether she wanted to be beheaded.

Eva replied: ‘I need a man, real one to do it.’

Bolinger: ‘I’ve got the cleaver and the experience. Really want to do it? I would want to have your body afterwards for food.’

Eva: ‘I don’t know why I want this but since I was 12 I need it.’

Bolinger: ‘I’ll show you my cleaver and chopping block if you want.’

Eva: ‘Yes.’

Bolinger: ‘And this is my preferred pose for you as I slice your head off.’

Bolinger described his plan to take the teenager back to his house, strip her, and tie her hands behind her back. He added: ‘Get you to kneel over the wodden (sic) block and remove your head… you’ll be gone before anyone knows.’

When she agreed to his plan he wrote: ‘Girl back on the menu!

‘As for cooking you, I don’t like waste… Roasts, sausages even your offal. I’ve a great recipe for Haggis and Black (blood) pudding.

‘Get over here as soon as you want and I’ll deal with your gorgeous firm young and, above all, edible body.’

When Eva confessed she was 14, Bolinger replied: ‘OK, younger than I thought but I’m still hungry for your meat… You’ll do fine.’

When Bolinger asked how she would get to England, Eva replied: ‘I think by train through the Channel.’

Bolinger responded: ‘Great, I can meet you at Ashford International train station and take you home to kill you, it can be that easy.’

The trial continues.
