It sounds like something out of the movie “Silence of the Lambs” but this was very real and gruesome.

Authorities say 42-year-old Lawrence Anderson in Oklahoma, suspected of murdering three people, has confessed to killing his neighbor, cutting her heart out, and then cooking it to feed his family.

He allegedly stabbed 41-year-old Andrea Lynn Blankenship to death in her Chickasha home.

The arrest warrant states Anderson took the heart back to a home at 214 West Minnesota. He cooked the heart with potatoes to feed to his family.

Anderson had been staying at the address with his uncle, 67-year-old Leon Pye, after his early prison release in January.

After cooking, Anderson allegedly killed Pye and his 4-year-old granddaughter, Kaeos Yates, and stabbed his aunt.

Authorities say Anderson has a long criminal record that includes drug convictions and domestic violence.
