Canadian police are searching for a man in connection with a murder in Montreal. A male human torso was discovered in a suitcase in a pile of garbage at Place Lucy and Décarie in Montreal Tuesday morning. Although authorities have not released the name of the victim, they have released the name of a suspect: 29-year-old Luka Rocco Magnotta.
Magnotta is a name well known in the animal rescue community. In 2010, a video surfaced of him on YouTube, torturing and killing two kittens. Photos of Magnotta holding various terrified animals as well as a list of his aliases made the rounds of social media sites, as advocates such as The Barbi Twins, and Rescue Ink searched for leads as to his identity and location.
Magnotta is alleged to have made a number of “crush” films in which he kills defenceless kittens. In four different videos, he is reported to be seen suffocating kittens, defiling dead kittens, feeding a kitten to a python and taping a kitten to a broom handle and drowning it in a bathtub. The Barbi Twins have been tracking his crimes against animals since 2010, but police did not devote any resources to the cases of animal abuse, because they “had bigger crimes to investigate.”
At a certain point the Barbi twins stopped giving Magnotta any press because it was clear he was committing his heinous acts of torture for the attention it brought him.
Every person involved in animal rescue is well aware of the connection between animal abuse and homicide. Magnotta was seen by the animal advocacy community as a killer in the making, but authorities could not be convinced to take his crimes seriously. Now it appears he has made the jump from animals to humans, as many serial killers throughout history have.
This month a new video entitled “1 Lunatic 1 Ice Pick” surfaced on the Internet which appears to be an actual snuff video. The killer in the video is believed to be Luka Magnotta, stabbing, beheading, dismembering and sexually abusing the corpse of another man.
It is not known whether the victim in the video is the same man found this week in Montreal.
In addition to his crush videos, Magnotta is known for being a male model, exotic dancer and gay porn star. He was born Eric Clinton Newman in Scarborough Ontario Canada, but legally changed his name.
He is rumored to have been romantically involved with Karla Homolka, one of the most notorious killers in Canadian history, who has served a 12-year sentence for manslaughter in the Ken and Barbie murders, although he has denied any connection to her.
Magnotta has gone by a number of aliases including, but not limited to: Eric Clinton Newman, Rocco Luka Magnotta, Vladmir Romanov, Jamsey Cramsalot Inhisass and Mattia Del Santo.
Cdr. Lafrenière of the Montreal police said the crime scene is horrific, given that the body was dismembered. He said that “some body parts are missing.”
Some of the body parts turned up today. One part, a foot, was delivered to the Canadian Conservative Party headquarters headed by Prime Minister Stephen Harper, while the second, a hand, was destined for Canadoan Liberal Party offices, but was discovered by Canada Post workers. Police announced today that both packages had originated in Montreal. Police issued a Canada-wide warrant today, and said they couldn’t rule out more body parts may be in the mail.
Montreal police say that Magnotta is their number one suspect, although he has no criminal record. According to Montreal newspaper La Presse, Magnotta had been renting apartment 208 in the brick building where the dismembered torso was found near. The residence is now treated as a crime scene by police. Police in masks were looking through evidence in the blood-soaked apartment today, having zeroed in on #208 because of the rotten stench emanating from the unit, says a building resident.
It probably will not be easy for police to find him. One of the many articles that Magnotta has published online was one written in 2009, titled “How to Completely Disappear and Never Be Found,” which shared a six-step process for escaping and shedding one’s identity.
If you have any information on the whereabouts of Luka Magnotta, please contact Montreal Police at: 514 393-1133 Do not approach Magnotta as he is considered dangerous.
I love baby animals and I would just love to hold a little puppy or kitten and bottle feed it. :)
Dump him in a shallow grave and let the maggots do their thing.
Just makes me sick to my stomach. I was also reading up on the Homolka woman he was said to have dated....Oh... Lord...that was a woman that should have gone to the electric chair.
Obama will hire him for his LGBT outreach program.
Yep!
There is a scene in the Michael Douglas flick “The Game” where he’s asked “Do you like to kill small animals?” during a personality profile test.
You provide no evidence except for another wild post without evidence. I’ve been a member of Free Republic for years and have not seen what you claim. I have seen people discuss hunting, is this what you are referring to as cruelty?
You need to stop spending so much time spying on dog parks. Get out there and throw a tennis ball for one of the pooches, it’s a hoot.
It’s ok to admit your confusion, I’m sure lots of fine people ride the short bus.
Well it seems other posters have seen the posts, you clearly haven’t been keeping up with them.

Thank you!
I’ve been here for 10 years, and I have seen such comments. I do not agree with the FReeper that there are ‘many’ FReepers who say/believe that (a very very small minority since most FReepers have functional minds), but they definitely do exist. Give the thread some time and I am sure one will show.
