I thought this shit only happend in Saw and Texas Chainsaw movies.
Rookie MMA fighter Jarrod Wyatt killed and mutilated his sparring partner and friend Taylor Powell in what can only be described as a bizarre and disturbing case of murder.
After drinking psychedelic mushroom tea with Powell and two other friends, Wyatt, a 26-year-old mixed martial arts fighter, was apparently convinced that the world was about to end and that Powell, 21, was the devil. “Satan was in that dude,” Wyatt reportedly told Del Norte County Police Sgt. Elwood Lee, who responded to the scene.
According to seriously grisly reports (brace yourselves) Wyatt had beaten Powell severely, drilled an 18-inch hole into his chest and removed his heart, tongue and most of his face. As if mutilating wasn’t enough, Wyatt then put Powell’s severed body parts into a wood stove and cooked them, because he thought Powell was still alive.
In what sounds like something out of the worst kind of slasher flick, when police arrived, Wyatt was found naked, standing over his dead training partner soaked in his victim’s blood and surrounded by body parts. One of the tea-drinkers, a woman, hid in a bedroom through the whole bloody attack, and the other left on his own trip but returned to the gruesome scene only to flee to call police from a pay phone.
Wyatt was arrested and charged with first-degree murder — he appeared in court Tuesday, but did not enter a plea. His lawyer’s comment? “My client was trying to silence the Devil.”
Obviously this case has nothing to do with MMA, and here’s hoping that the sport’s critics don’t try to connect any ridiculous dots between a violent, drug-fuelled psychotic break and the sport of mixed martial arts. Jarrod Wyatt’s only professional MMA match was in January, when he defeated Seth Stanfill in Resurrection Cage Fights.
