    I think this kind of anti-African panic has been long simmering in the UK too, I recall reading about a 2002 case where the remains of a young black boy were discovered in the Thames, and the “loony” opinion was that it was satanists, while the measured and reasonable opinion printed in shit like the Telegraph was that it was probably “African witch doctors”

    Aside from that, the organs in the attached photo just actually look intact and relatively unremarkable aside from not being inside of an animal, surely the only thing you could test for in that case would be if stress hormones or similar are built up, which could be any kind of pain and stress, or like if they find weird poison in a stomach?
