Like many future killers, Magnotta’s upbringing wasn’t an easy one. His father suffered from schizophrenia and his mother was a germaphobe who would make Magnotta scrub his hands raw when washing. He himself spent time in mental hospitals and in 2002, was diagnosed with schizophrenia. He dropped out of high school and attempted to find a career as ...
Magnotta first attracted online attention when he started posting videos of cats—and not the cute, funny kind. In 2010, a series of videos were posted online in which Magnotta suffocated and drowned kittens. These weren’t his first crimes. He had already been convicted of fraud in 2004, after racking up $17,000 on a friend’s credit card, and in 200...

Online, he’d post pictures of his cat and talk about feeling lonely — he had only been in Canada for a couple of years and was older than most of his classmates. A fellow student told The Globe and Mail he was...
In 2012, Magnotta had put an ad on Craigslist looking for sex and bondage. Lin responded and they met on 24th May. Security footage captured them entering Magnotta’s building that evening. That night, Lin sent a text to his ex at the time he would have been waking up to say good morning. It was the last text that Lin ever sent.
A day after the two met, Magnotta posted another video. This one was called ‘1 Lunatic 1 Ice Pick’. The video captured the savage murder of Jun Lin. 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 vi...
By May, viewers of the video were attempting to report the crime to police, but their reports were largely dismissed as authorities believed the video was fake. By then, Magnotta had already started disposing of the body. CCTV captured him throwing bags into the bin while wearing Lin’s t-shirt. On 29th May in Montreal, Mike Nadeau, who worked as a ...
Police believed Magnotta had travelled to Europe. He’d even written blog posts detailing how he might disappear. In practice, he went clubbing, continued to use his mobile phone, and hooked up with other men. Once CCTV caught him in Germany, authorities were able to arrest him in an internet café in Berlin on 4th June, where he was sitting reading ...

He filed an appeal, but later dropped it. He...
