Metheny was so angered with people that he raped and murdered prostitutes and homeless people. He then dismembered them which was hardly much of a deal in comparison to what he did to his dead victims next. This is going to shock you. To cover up the murders, he disposed of the bodies in the most disgusting way possible.
Joe Metheny chopped each of his victims mixed them up with pork meat and served them in burgers which he sold to customers from his open roadside BBQ stand. Metheny continued doing this for two years till he was arrested.

Metheny could not find his wife and son in spite of searching everywhere. He spent several days looking for them but since they had no identification, it was like searching for a needle in a haystack. He checked halfway houses. He even looked under a bridge where his wife would hide and take drugs.

It was here that he first found two homeless men whom he suspected of indulging in drugs along with his wife. When they denied knowing her, Metheny attacked them with an axe killing them on the spot. Metheny spotted a fisherman nearby and suspecting that he might have seen the murder, he killed the fisherman too.
However, the mental flip of mincing victims came later. The bodies of his first three victims, he threw into the river after panicking.
