Intricate soup carving by the Alaska double murderer.
This auction is for a soap carving by Alaska double murderer Carl Abuhl. In 2004, Carl Abuhl became the first inmate in Alaska to murder another inmate. Apparently, Carl Abuhl's cellmate like to brag about his crimes and Carl wasn't having it. He strangled him to death with a bed sheet. Carl Abuhl would receive an additional 30 years on top of the 77 he was already serving for murder. Carl Abuhl was featured on MSNBC's Lock-Up. His interview was memorable. When detailing his first murder, he said, "I smashed his skull. I mean, I smashed it. Bad. I think the biggest piece of skull fragment they found was about the size of a half-dollar." Carl Abuhl's apparent motive for the homicide was the victim allegedly getting young women strung out on drugs. Carl Abuhl is suspected to have committed several additional homicides in other states.
ITEM DESCRIPTION: The soap carving is of a dragon's head and extremely detailed. These particular soap carvings take anywhere from 12 to 14 hours to complete. The soap carving comes with the soap packaging, signed by Abuhl. Message me with any questions you might have. Thanks for having a look-see.
