Hannibal the Cannibal; The True Story of Robert Maudsley
Robert Maudsley casually walked into the cell of another inmate, who was sleeping on his bunk facedown. A savage rage quickly took over, and Maudsley started stabbing the back of the man’s head. There was blood, pieces of brain, and chunks of hair flying in a fury. After the man went limp, Maudsley grabbed the man’s head and held it in both palms and started to smash it against the walls of the cell, so hard that the plaster began to fall off the ceiling. Nurses and guards had to watch on, not being able to get into the cell, hearing the victim’s head crack each time it was smashed against the wall. After Maudsley finished with the attack, he sat the limp body up against the bed, got down on his knees, and started to eat chunks of the brain with his home-made knife. Robert Maudsley was dubbed “Hannibal the Cannibal’ on account of his thirst for eating the brains of his victims. He is one of the most interesting and thought-provoking murderers in prison. He will be housed in a bulletproof cage, in the basement of Wakefield Prison, England, where Britain hold its most savage, high-profile convicts. He is known to be such a danger to others, even inmates, he lives in a specially designed cell that doesn’t allow him any contact with anybody, except for guards that will slide his food through a small hole at the bottom of one of his cells. Robert Maudsley is deemed to be the ‘Most Dangerous Prisoner in Britain.’ Even though he only killed one person outside of prison, his remaining victims were claimed while incarcerated. This book reviews Maudsley’s life from his tormented childhood, his rage-filled murder outside of prison, and the planned torturous murders of three convicted pedophiles. In the basement of Wakefield, you might be surprised who else has been housed beside him, and what kind of relationship they have.

This was an unique look at the different places of incarceration in England told through the story of an Infamous killer, Robert Maudsley. Should he be in a Criminally Insane Asylum versus a Supermax Prison? By Supermax I'm referring to a United States prison where the prisoners are kept in separate cells for 23 hours a day, always escorted by correctional officers around the prison, and given one hour a day of exercise.

I may be prejudiced, but on my first day of work at a Supermax Prison one inmate killed another as they passed each other in the hallway. One short man knocked over his own guard, knocked down the guard escorting the other prisoner, then tackled the other prisoner, and managed to stomp him to death wearing sneakers. I might add both prisoners were wearing cuffs on there hands and around their ankles.

Some prisoners are criminally insane, but cunning and deadly. As much as they may be more appropriately placed in a mental health facility for the criminally insane, if they are too violent for the institution to handle them, then for the sake of the other patients / prisoners and staff they do need to be housed in a Supermax.

This was an interesting book that also spoke about Maudsley's notorious Neighbors, in addition to his fight to get placed back in a mental health facility despite the murders he committed while incarcerated.
