Gilberto Valle, 28, of Queens, N.Y., was charged with two counts of attempted kidnapping. The criminal complaint against him includes transcripts of his alleged plans, in which he is quoted at one point as telling a co-conspirator that his oven is "big enough to fit one of these girls if I folded their legs."
"I was thinking of tying her body onto some kind of apparatus ... cook her over a low heat, keep her alive as long as possible," he is accused of saying in the July conversation.

"She does look tasty doesn't she," he added, according to the complaint.
According to the criminal complaint, Valle had files on his computer that referred to at least 100 women, including photographs, addresses and physical descriptions.

Ten of those women have been interviewed by the FBI and confirmed that they know Valle, the complaint said.
Valle had been assigned to the 26th Precinct in Manhattan before his suspension on Wednesday.
He was expected to appear in federal court in Manhattan in court later Thursday. Lawyer information was not immediately available.

What the....?
What was he trying to figure out which lady would go best in his gumbo? Even if he was just being a creep saying that he thought certain women looked "tasty" or he wanted to cook them in his oven, what's he doing with over 100 files on different women including their addresses and physical descriptions?! If he hasn't hurt anyone yet he sure as hell would have eventually.
....hell? Maybe they should change up their Psychiatric Exam because it obviously has some holes if they end up hiring Hannibal Lector.
It appears that cities are scraping the bottom of the barrel for law enforcement officers.This man is absolutely insane and should never be let out among society for the rest of his natural born life.There isn't any anti psychotic strong enough to treat this individual in hopes that he will ever be normal.
Sick bastard. What did he think he could use those plastic ties like they use on turkeys for their legs?
Im sure some psychiatrist will have a nice long lived career studying this fruitcake.
Bet he gets a job in the prison kitchen. Inmate anyone.
OOPS one slipped past the physiological testing.
crap, i was just enjoying the cop killed a scumbag story, now this.thanks.
Must be a Republican.
Okay, okay! I'm just kidding, having some fun! Get over it.
Seriously, this man is one scary guy. So glad he is off the streets.
WHY did you go there?! *aaarrrggg*

Some people just can't help themselves.... and that goes for BOTH ends of the political spectrum.
OMG, you people seriously need to lighten up. Not good for your mental health to be wound so tight.
AlaskaGirl, anytime you tell any joke on any of these articles, you will upset several people. I have already learned the hard way that some people just have no sense of humor.
Haha. It's okay, riverboy. I only did it because usually in the comments there is one person who brings up politics in a story that has nothing to do with politics, so I've never done that, so I thought it would be kind of fun to be the first one to do it here, in a story that, as yet, has produced no tragic results. I could really care less if it upsets any of them. People really do need to lighten up! Cheers!
You are correct AlaskaGirl, and this is Obamas fault.
Cop opens oven to eat victim....Obama pops in...."You didnt cook that!"
Well, now that you've brought up that which should not be named, we have to delve deeper into the matter:
Are you really living in or were originally from Alaska?
Are you now or have you ever been a girl?
How do we manipulate 759554 to reveal that it is actually 666 in disguise?
If the answer to either of the first two questions is No, then prepare yourself for a tidal wave of lawsuits alleging you've intentionally degraded the native female population of the region.
See - there are worse things to talk about than politics. Not many, but in today's "be politically correct" world, we must be aware of the thin skinned sensibilities of so many others.
Besides, I kind of figured the guy for a right-wing, left leaning liberal traditionalist of a democrat. Boy was I wrong!
:) :) :) :)
AlaskaGirl,
See the Pandora's box you've opened? Now we have all kinds of 'em out there.
I have to say, I really don't have anything to say about this story...wow. This guy is out there, I'm just glad they acted before he did anything about his fantasy.
thatguy: now THAT was funny!
lol I try.
Question: Is anyone looking into the collars he made?
Funny thing is he arrested a lot of people, but they never showed up at the jail. He was more interested in cooking, than booking. To protect and to serve ( usually served with fries and a roll). Kind of a cross between the Blue Knights and Hannibal Lecter. Do you suppose his special ingredient was bath salts ?They want to make a reality show, but they can't decide on a name. I have a couple of proposals " How I et Your Mother ", " Two and Half Men, The Thanksgiving Special ", or " C.S.I. New York ". Of course the C.S.I. stands for cooked, sliced, and injested !
Yes, I have looked into the collars he made.
We had some last Sunday and they were great!
He served them with a nice mushroom gravy sauce, a great steamed vegetable compliment, home made biscuits and a nice red wine!
The thighs were especially tasty, the meat fell right off the bone!
Absolutly Scruptous ;-)
by steamed vegetable and red wine you must mean fava beans and chianti
Someone had to go there. Welcome aboard Lektor.
well if girls and people start missing you know who ate them and he is still on the force what are they thinking
Until he's proved GUILTY in a court of law, he is still just "alleged" to have done anything, and at this point, it's nothing more than "thinking and talking" (apparently, unless there's more info being withheld) about something.
Let's roll the ball off the table (Minority Report) you catch it before it falls, "why did you do that?"
"Because it was going to fall." You respond...
"How do you know?"
Some things are just, well, going to happen. If this guy has been planning to the length he had, 100s of pictures and addresses, along with descriptions, he was going to do something.
I don't think my oven is big enough to stick a grown woman in...
There was no minority report in "Minority Report"
A seriously sick pathetic individual.
I'm sure they'll be looking at actual missing persons and making comparisons to those he has "files" on for similarities.
people are getting more and more disturbing everyday.

Not really Kelly. It's just that now we hear about everything that comes out anywhere, anytime.
What used to make the local nightly news and the paper the next day is thrown in our face nationally, even globally almost immediately, thanks to the 24x7 news cycle and the Internet.
I disagree.More monsters are getting caught due to advances in technology and people can't get by with denying things like this anymore.Formerly people who couldn't handle admitting that things like this really happen, used to conveniently bury their heads in the sand and say someone either is lying or imagined it.Now it's on people's computers or caught on camera so that doesn't work.
Huh. With Thanksgiving coming up, I wonder what his dinner plans were?
Roasted hooker with a nice red wine?
Thanksgiving? This is a Halloween roast!
Hookers go with white wine Animal...sheeze no culture around here.... ;)
Come on guys...everyone knows hookers pair best with pink champagne.
Totally wrong hookers and the silver bullet. When the mountains turn blue, hookers ready to eat and beers ready to drink.
There has always been a percetage of psychos distributed among the populace.
Thing is, now we hear about them no matter where in the world they are discovered, sometimes within hours of discovery.
Nope, I think we hear about 1/1000 of 1 percent...Just like the kids abducted...The news can handle one a week when it is 2,200 per year that go missing.
So, the mind police are at it? I didn't think you could go to jail for thinking about something...
He did more than think. Those files that they found on his computer were obtained illegally from a law enforcement database. So, he's guilty of more than a fantasy.
The episode of Criminal Minds last night was worse...
@!$%#!?!?!?! What the Hell kinda psycho degenerates is the NYPD hiring these days?????
Find any group of 30,000+ people where there AREN'T a few nuts? If he's the only one, then the NYPD is to be congratulated for an excellent hiring process
Good point Barry,
Look at the law of averages, it figures that at least 10% of any population is going to be psychopathic, Homicidal, or violent in some manner between the two.
Psychopaths can be particularly adept at blending in...case in point, Ted Bundy. How many times have you read about someone saying "He keeps to himself, I never had any trouble with him..."
Jeffrey Dahmer lived with his behavior for many years before being caught. Most don't join the Police Department, but as large as NYPD is, you can expect a few to fall through the cracks.
Looks like just shooting people wasn't good enough for him.
Where do they get these Cops now, from EBAY ???
And he walks among us?
Don't police officers require a psych before hiring?
no need for xamb jus need to be dumb fat and bald.
So I know about these two guys on a deep jungle expedition that were captured by Cannibals. They were put in this big ass cauldron of water that was on top of smoldering kindling. As the Cannibals danced around the pot they kept adding more wood to get the fire going. Then one of them, I guess he was the witch doctor, kept poking one of the guys in the butt. He laughed every time the Cannibal poked his butt with the stick/spear. Finally the other guy asked, "Why TF are you laughing?"
He responded that every time he got poked in the butt with the stick/spear, he was crapping in their soup.
i rember when they liked donuts
ROFL...
i remember when they like donuts
SICK!!!!
They should stick his sorry ass in an oven and keep HIM alive as long as possible . Aholes like this should feel what they would like to do to normal people .
One more of NY's finest union members.
you're an idiot.
This story doesn't suprise me. Police are graft taking, racist, repressed homosexual bullies, and those are the nice ones. This pig's surname sounds like a Guinea name to me, a Guinea being my euphenism for any American of Italian ancestry. Out of all the teeming refuse that came to the USA, to be exploited for cheap labor and other degrading purposes by the wealthy deep state elitists, Guineas stand out for their stupidity and vulgarity, and continue to distinguish themselves in this regard in so many ways.
Given your rant, I'd say that you're a bit of a racist bully yourself.
ugh
Take Andrew "Michael Corleone" Cuomo for example. Need I say more?
I think Gilberto Valle, the Robinson brothers, Austin Sigg, Jonathan Holt, and Jerry Sandusky should share a dungeon with nothing to eat except each other.
The finest and most stable people are always hired as cops to protect citizens. This coun't be true..Roflmao.........
