A New York City police officer was accused Thursday of plotting with others for months to kidnap women, kill and eat them, authorities said.

Gilberto Valle, 28 years old, was arrested late Wednesday after a search of a computer at his Queens home turned up emails and instant messages dating back to January talking about holding women captive, cooking them and cannibalizing their body parts, according to a criminal complaint in federal court.

The search found files and photographs, and in some cases addresses, of 100 women, the complaint said. The six-year department veteran is also accused of using a law-enforcement database to locate at least one potential victim.

The complaint included excerpts of communications between Valle and two unnamed co-conspirators who spoke of drugging and raping women. In one alleged exchange, a co-conspirator asked Mr. Valle, "How big is your oven?" Officer Valle allegedly replied: "Big enough to fit one of these girls if I folded their legs."

He also said he could make chloroform at his home, according to the complaint. "I love that she is asleep right now not having the slightest clue of what we have planned," Officer Valle wrote in one message, according to the complaint.

Officer Valle didn't appear to carry out any threats, although he traveled to Maryland on July 22 to meet with a potential victim, the complaint states.

It's like real life is finally ripping off Law & Order. (Although we all know that L&O is real.)

Gives a whole new meaning of "I'll take a leg or I'll have a breast please."

Is it just me, or is this whole thing just a little bit weird?

Normally, a weirdo like that would have a successful career writing for a show like "law and order".

The thing that creeps me out most about TV shows like that is the fact that some sick bastard thought up the storyline.

Stephen King would be locked up in the puzzle factory if he weren't a writer.

Almost forgot:

"How's the food at Gilberto's house?"

"It varies from person to person"

Some people just have vivid imaginations. My wife could very easily be a writer for some shows with some of the dreams she tells me about.

This guy though, that is some sick Dr. Lecter stuff going on there.

Isn't that how most people eat women?

"Every title I thought of was tasteless" So beyond the obvious play on words in the title, you left the tasteless comments to us?

You knew we wouldn't disappoint you didn't you?

So what you're saying is, I should look into becoming a TV writer?

don't worry... the poor cop will find another job at some small town police force in 5 years.. which will be good for them, because they will need the extra man power to try to find all the women that suddenly go missing.
