The docu-series tells the story of one of Canada's most infamous crimes, the murder of Lin Jun. Lin was killed by
Luka Rocco Magnotta (born Eric Clinton Kirk Newman; July 24, 1982) is a Canadian murderer who has been found guilty. He was convicted of murdering Jun Lin, cutting his body into pieces, and sending these body parts to different political parties and elementary schools. Lin was a Chinese international student.
Horrified, an online group of people decided to track him down. Luke Magnotta was arrested in 2012 and is currently serving a life sentence in prison. But, as director Mark Lewis reveals in this three-part documentary, Luke Magnotta was more than just the “cat killer.”
In it, Magnotta stabbed Lin, who was tied up, with an ice pick, before performing necrophiliac acts and dismembering the body. Viewers reported seeing acts of cannibalism. A dog also appeared in the video. Hours later, Magnotta booked a round-trip ticket for a flight from Montreal to Paris.
His mother has since remained innocent in all crimes despite her support of son Magnotta, although she did admit his use of the internet, and his want of her to join in on his "games" made her uncomfortable, "He wanted me to do certain things on the internet that I felt were not right to do, so I didn't, I told him I'm ...
He is now serving a life sentence in Quebec's maximum-security Port-Cartier Institution, where he married another incarcerated person in 2017.
After stabbing Lin's chest, Luka dismembers his body and also feeds flesh to a dog, before killing the puppy. As well as dumping Lin Jun's torso in the rubbish, Luka sent the victim's left foot to the Conservative Party of Canada, and then his right hand to the Liberal Party.
Premise. The three-part docuseries follows a group of amateur internet sleuths who launched a manhunt for Luka Magnotta after he gained international notoriety in 2010 for sharing a video online of himself killing two kittens in a plastic bag, and suffocating them with a vacuum cleaner.
The team then went through the various aliases Luka used online and discovered that Manny was actually based on a character in the 1992 movie, Basic Instinct. Not only was Manny fabricated by Luka, the cat killer copied a murder Sharon Stone's character Catherine Tramell carried out in the film.
Steven Bouquet (5 January 1967 – 6 January 2022), also known as the Brighton Cat Killer, was a British criminal who was sentenced to five-years and three-months in prison for killing nine cats, maiming seven more, possession of a knife in a public place and failing to answer bail.
After Toby the cat walked 12 miles to get back to the place he thought was home, his original family took him to a county shelter and requested that he be euthanized.
Felix the Cat is a cartoon character created in 1919 by Pat Sullivan and Otto Messmer during the silent film era. An anthropomorphic young black cat with white eyes, a black body, and a giant grin, he is often considered one of the most recognized cartoon characters in film history.
On June 4, 2012, Magnotta was apprehended by Berlin Police at an Internet café in the Neukölln district while reading news stories about himself. He tried giving fake names before admitting who he was. His identity was confirmed through fingerprint evidence. Magnotta appeared in a Berlin court on June 5, 2012.
As part of what his sister would later describe as an effort to “reinvent” himself, he legally changed his name to Luka Rocco Magnotta. In 2010, Magnotta began posting online what eventually became a series of three disturbing videos.
While speaking to TMZ, Anna claimed that that extra hand was definitely Manny's. “In the cat killing video, there's a third hand you can see. So, there's my son's two hands and there's a third hand. You can't see a face, so it's unidentifiable — but, Manny was there,” Anna said.
When was Luka Magnotta married? Anthony Jolin and Luka Magnotta are convicted criminals who found love behind bars. They got hitched on June 26th, 2017.
Full Parole Eligibility
Under paragraph 745(a) of the Criminal Code of Canada (CCC), an offender serving life for 1st degree murder is eligible for full parole 25 years after the date they were taken into custody. Eligibility does not mean automatic release. Full parole must be granted by the PBC.
David Russell Williams (born March 7, 1963) is a British-born Canadian serial rapist, murderer and former colonel in the Royal Canadian Air Force. He is currently serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole for 25 years for two murders, committed in November 2009 and January 2010.
A marriage licence from the Palais de justice de Sept-Îles with Magnotta's mother Anna Yourkin listed as a witness enabled the convicts to be legally wed at the Pont-Cartier prison, where they are both serving time for murder.
And the alleged “cannibal killer” attracted needless attention when he addressed the Berlin merchant in French, calling him "Monsieur." Magnotta had famously fled his blood-soaked apartment in the bilingual Snowdon district of Montreal and had spent, it is now known, five days in Paris.
The former model and escort at the centre of an international manhunt for a killing and dismemberment fled Canada for Paris on May 25, the day the killing took place. That was the same day a brand new suitcase appeared among the trash in an alley behind Mr. Magnotta's apartment building.
