Katherine Knight - Cannibal Kate
Listen now
Description
Katherine Knight stands out as one of Australia’s most infamous figures—think Down Under's answer to Hannibal Lecter, but somehow even more unsettling. Katherine was a butcher by trade, and when she wasn’t slicing meat at work, she was slicing up the hearts of anyone who dared to love her. Enter John Price, her unlucky boyfriend who thought he could handle her fiery temper. Unfortunately, he didn’t realize he’d end up as the main course. One night in 2000, Katherine decided to end things with Price in the most nightmarish way possible. When police arrived at the scene, they found a gruesome display that would leave even seasoned detectives wishing they could unsee it. Let’s just say, she set the table with a horror that looked straight out of a B-grade slasher flick, complete with place settings for his kids as if she was hosting some macabre dinner party. Today, Katherine is serving life in prison—no chance of parole, no knives, and hopefully no more cooking. Her story remains a dark reminder that sometimes, it’s better to swipe left when your date’s past involves a little too much butchery experience.
