Investigators say Magnotta, 29, posted a video online showing him having sex
with the dismembered corpse. A second, unedited version of the video seen by
police shows him eating parts of the body. Police say Magnotta and Lin were
in a relationship.
The case became known when a package containing a severed foot was found at Canada‘s
ruling Conservative Party headquarters on May 29. That same day, a hand was
discovered at a postal facility, addressed to the Liberal Party of Canada.
Lin’s torso was found in a suitcase at a garbage dump in Montreal outside
Magnotta’s apartment building.
About a week later, a missing foot and hand were found mailed to two schools
in Vancouver. Police said notes were included in most of the packages but
declined to say what they said.
Magnotta, who fled to Europe before the body was discovered, spent a few days
partying in Paris before moving on to Berlin, where he was caught last month
as he read stories about himself at an internet café. He did not contest his
extradition from Germany and arrived in Montreal last month on a Canadian
military plane.
Lin’s family arrived in Montreal last month and attended a memorial service
last week. Lin, 33, studied computer science student at Montreal’s Concordia
University.
