An alleged voodoo worshipper accused of beheading a Kansas man with a guitar string has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder.
Topeka police say James Paul Harris, 29, ghoulishly severed the head of 49-year-old James Gerety in 2011 before packing it away in a draw-string bag to talk to, the Topeka Capital-Journal reports.
Gerety's partial remains were found a year later in Carbondale, about 18 miles south of Harris' home.
Harris' former girlfriend, Bobbie Williams, testified last month that he used the wire string as a garrote to decapitate Gerety after first shooting him in the stomach and torturing him for two days.
A police detective also testified that Williams told him Harris practiced voodoo and liked to talk to the head he kept in the canvas bag.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
