Cannibal Cop Gets Chefs Job In Jail

Gilberto Valle was convicted in federal court over a year ago for conspiring to kidnap, murder, cook and eat women.

So he's 'killing time' in the Metropolitan Correctional Center in lower Manhattan waiting for a judge to to grant him a new trial.

Fine.

So what's 30-year-old Gil up to while cooling his heels in jail?  You didn't guess it - he's  making $.44 an hour slicing, dicing and cooking breakfast and lunch for guards and inmates.

Valle's tenure as a NYPD cop was cut short when his wife found disturbing photos on their shared computer.  But that still doesn't explain how a knucklehead warden hired the cannibal as a cook.

This one isn't poetic or humorous. It's just plain dumb.
