The guy who wanted to be eaten is obviously mentally sick. It shouldn't be less of a crime if someone then proceeds eating this guy, because he is sick and what he wants is not sane, and justice should protect the sane and the insane. But then again, this cannibal dude is pretty sick too. He needs help.

I argued this with Floyd when the story first broke.
There is a good reason to assume that anyone who would consent to being killed and eaten in this manner out of some sort of sexual fetish is, in fact, mentally insane and therefore unable to legally give such consent. The sentence therefore reflects the fact that a person should reasonably know that no sane person would consent to such a thing and therefore the defendant shouldn't have done it.
And the person who ate him must also be mentally insane, so he can't be held responsible for his actions. Where's that leave us?

Not necessarily. The standard for being deemed not guilty by reason of insanity is that one must not have been able to know that one's actions were wrong. While eating another person out of a kink certainly pushes the limit of sanity, there's nothing remotely indicating that the perpetrator didn't know it was criminal.
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
Well let's say the both men are sane. It's still not any factor if he asked for it or not IMO. Why? Because it's illegal, plus if anything, then the guy who was eaten is guilty of.. how do you say it.. when you ask someone to do a crime.. that one. But it wouldn't take the blame from the cannibal guy at all, and not deserving anything less of a punishment even if he ate the man against his will.
If someone asks me to shoot him in the head, he might want me to do it, but if I do it, I'm as guilty as I can be for killing this person, and it don't matter he asked me to.

What amazes me is how someone would actually want to be slaughtered...that indicates a self-destructive tendency and therefore the person isn't compus menti. Therefore the gentleman who I shall refer to as 'the feasted upon' ( ) was not capable of making this decision and therefore it would be murder. Who would want to be butchered like that?!
