In 2008 31-year-old Czech mother Klara Mauerova tortured her
two sons, 8-year-old son Ondrej and Jakub, 10,
over a period of six months. She stubbed cigarettes out on their bare
skin, whipped them with belts and tried to drown them. Eventually Klara decided
to slice off sections of Ondrej’s skin and forced him to eat it. Karla’s
sister, Katerina, helped her in executing the tortures. Other relatives, among
them Barbara Skrlova, partook of the human flesh Klara provided. After their
rescue from their single mom, the boys said they were kept in cages or
handcuffed to tables, sexually abused, forced to cut themselves with
knives, and made to stand for days in
their own urine.
Klara claimed the activities were not her fault and that she
had been brainwashed by Barbora Skrlova. She explained herself in vague terms
using the passive voice: “Terrible things have happened. I realize it and can’t
understand how I could have allowed it.” During the trial the defense claimed
that the abuses were coordinated via text messages sent by a leader of the
Grail Movement cult, of which the defendants were members— who was known only
as the “Doctor.”
The Czech Republic court in Brno sentenced the mother,
Klara Mauerova, to nine years in prison. Her sister Katerina given 10 years. Barbora Skrlova, 34, got five years. Three others who took
part in the abuse were also given jail terms: Hana Basova, 28, and Jan Skrla,
25, 7 years each; Jan Turek, 5 years. [UhoM]
