Cannibalism
All that cannibalism news is taking a toll in that quiet town . Media sensationalized it because it was just gross and shocking
Narra tourism officer Reynaldo de la Rosa complained that the incident occurred in the hinterlands of the town and that most residents would not even have learned of the crime had it not been for media reporting.
“The first media reports that came out weren’t too detailed. It made it look like it was part of our culture,” he said.
Bacuel said it was the first such case in the history of the town, some 650 kilometers (400 miles) west of Manila. Violent crime is rare in Narra and the last killing occurred last year during a drunken brawl, she remarked.
