Cops seek suspect in torso murder
Police are hunting for suspected torso killer Luca Magnotta; CP went to look at the building where Magnotta was living to talk directly with the folks who have to clean up (shouldn’t that scene, with blood and I don’t know what all, be treated as a biological hazmat situation?!).
CBC says this story is making the international news – on top of the ongoing demonstrations (peaceful though they’ve been) and the Anonymous teasing of the Grand Prix, a torso murder completes the trifecta against tourism this summer.

Anyone else remember when some guy was posting as/about Luka Magnotta on the rants & raves in craigslist? It was constant Luka-spam there for over a year. Crazy. And the torso was discovered right near where I live. Scary. o.O For some reason the area seems to attract mentally disturbed people, there’s a new freak show at Snowdon metro every few weeks.

“The Snowden Torso Trashbag Killer”: I’m waiting for the quickie grade-z straight-to-video exploitation version starring over the hill has-beens and young slabs of beef.

The story made the home page of the New York Times website yesterday. I don’t think they have covered the student demos.

Maybe I watch too much Law&Order, but I’m surprised they didn’t take the sheets, fridge and mattress as evidence and that random people are allowed in the room?

Tux and Hamza: a craigslist angle has come out about Magnotta now too.
