According to Douglas Rico, director of the CICPC, Hernandez confessed to the shocking crime.
He went on to add that after his arrest and through interrogation he admitted his guilt in the incident, stating he had quartered and eaten a large part of the human.
The alleged murderer claims the unnamed farm owner had hired him to carry out a bizarre funeral service.
