James Douglas, 3.º Marquês de Queensberry (2 de novembro de 169717 de fevereiro de 1715), conhecido até 1711 como Conde de Drumlanrig, foi um nobre britânico.

Biografia

Filho de James Douglas, 2.º Duque de Queensberry, ele era descrito como "imbecil" e violentamente insano, sendo mantido preso ainda criança em Queensberry House, em Edimburgo, hoje parte do complexo do Parlamento da Escócia.

Quando o Tratado de União de 1707 foi assinado, a falta de atenção, devido às festividades, causou sua fuga. Drumlanrig, então com dez anos, matou um jovem ajudante de cozinha em Holyrood, assou-o em um espeto e começou a comê-lo, antes de ser descoberto e apreendido. Passou a ser chamado de "O Idiota Canibalesco". O forno que usara pode ser visto até hoje[1].

Faleceu aos dezessete anos, sendo enterrado no pátio da igreja de Calverley[2]. Seu irmão, Charles Douglas, 3.º Duque de Queensberry, sucedeu-o.
