Christian Man in Bible Belt of Texas Says -
God Made Him Kill, Cook (and Eat)? His Girlfriend --
Christopher McCuin and Jana Shearer.
TYLER (Texas) Morning Telegraph (AP) — Police in this small town located in the "Bible Belt" of north Texas, were amazed at the crime scene where they found the mutilated body of a young girl, a pot of boiling water -- with an ear in it and a plate with a fork stuck down into a hunk of human flesh. 
Smith County Sheriff Lt. Larry Wiginton told the Telegraph reporter that, Christopher Lee McCuin, who is 25 years old, says God instructed him to kill Jana Shearer, 21 - then mutilate her body and cook parts of her flesh.
Authorities were amazed at the suspects comments. "When he said God told him to do it, one of the investigators . .
. . looked at him and just said, 'What did you say?" according to Wiginton.
Sheriff J. B. Smith told the Tyler newspaper, investigators had found Shearer’s body with chunks of flesh cut out - one ear boiling in a pot of water on the stove and a plate of human flesh with a fork in it, lying on the kitchen table in the Tyler residence.Officials said that McCuin killed the woman by beating her in the head with a blunt object after abducting her from her Whitehouse apartment, put her body in the back seat of his extended cab pickup, drove to his estranged wife’s home where he stabbed her boyfriend multi-ple times, ran from police, broke into a Tyler business and then finally went to his mother’s home where he asked her to come look what he had done.
Wiginton said that when questioned, McCuin claims he remembers going to several places, but when asked if he killed Ms. Shearer or stabbed his estranged wife’s boyfriend, McCuin says he suffered blackouts and doesn’t remember.
Friends and family of the victim, 21 year old Jana Shearer, who police say was killed and mutilated by her boyfriend, struggled to put aside the grisly details of her death. "You can’t sleep. You can’t think straight anymore," said Amy Gage, a friend and neighbor of the victim. "Then you just keep finding out more and more. It’s the most difficult thing anyone can go through."Shearer’s boyfriend, Christopher Lee McCuin, 25, was charged with capital murder after police said they found her body, an ear boiling in a pot on a stovetop, and a hunk of flesh with a fork in it on a plate at the crime scene.
McCuin, wearing a jail-issue red jumpsuit, was not asked to enter a plea as he appeared before state District Judge Jack Skeen Jr. on Monday. Skeen continued McCuin’s bond at $2 million and appointed an attorney to represent him.
Authorities said McGuin’s comments in a 911 call that alerted them to the hideous discovery led them to believe he may have intended to eat his girlfriend’s remains, but said it is unclear whether McCuin consumed any part of her body.
Wiginton said investigators are still working the case and that they need help in locating where the actual murder took place.
