Did Canada's alleged cannibal killer Luka Magnotta strike in LA?

Police in Canada investigating the horrific murder and dismemberment of a student have been contacted by Los Angeles police officers about a similar slaying of a 66-year-old man, whose body was found under the famous Hollywood sign, according to reports.

The Toronto Star reported that 29-year-old porn film actor Luka Rocco Magnotta, the man suspected of killing of Chinese student Jun Lin, may have lived in Los Angeles at one time. Montreal police told the paper that he had lived somewhere on the U.S. West Coast.


In late January, the remains of a retired airline worker were found in Los Angeles. The body of Hervey Medellin, 66, had been found by dog walkers near the Hollywood sign after one of the dogs found a plastic bag containing his severed head.

Victim identified in Hollywood severed head case

"The body parts are the common denominator here," Los Angeles police spokesman Officer Lyle Knight said, according to the Star. "That's why our investigators want to talk to the Canadians. We want to know if his whereabouts included Hollywood because we understand he was in the acting field and Hollywood being the acting and movie mecca, we want to know."

Los Angeles police told ABC News that Medellin was openly gay, and noted that Medellin's hands and feet had also been cut off.

The similarities between the Los Angeles killing and the Canada murder four months later are striking. Lin, 33, who was studying computer science at Concordia University in Montreal, was killed in May. His hands and feet were sent in the mail to schools in Vancouver and political offices in Ottawa, while his torso was found in a suitcase in Montreal. His head has not been found.

Canada police: Notes mailed with body parts

Investigators say Magnotta, who was Lin's lover, videotaped the killing and dismemberment in his apartment and posted it online. The video also shows the suspect eating parts of the body, police said.

After two Vancouver schools received packages in the mail containing body parts, authorities are investigating whether there is a connection with Luka Magnotta, the Canadian porn star arrested in Berlin for allegedly murdering and dismembering an acquaintance. NBC's Michelle Kosinski reports.

Magnotta was arrested in Berlin, Germany, on Monday in connection with Lin's murder and is expected to be extradited to Canada.

Dep. Chief Warren Lemcke provides details on the police investigation of human remains that were sent to two Vancouver, British Columbia schools.

He's and idiot, yes. but a demented idiot as well. There is something missing here. The article says he was gay. Is this the way a gay handles his lover? Geeez - that's a little over the top, wouldn't you think. Maybe the best thing is to just toss him out the door over the Atlantic on his way back to Canada. That would solve a lot of the issues.

We should remember that on the other border -Mexico- there are people that are having the same death. The only difference is that they are not being videotaped.

There have been hundreds of behaded bodies found in empty roads and under bridges in Mexico because of the wars between drug dealers.

Stop focusing in sensational media and get perspective. The families of all those victims may be searching for their loved ones right now, not knowing what happend to them, sinice the bodies are behaded, have no hands for fingerprints, and the feet are also cut.

@Arther66, and your point?! The murderer was actually a bisexual man who acted in gay porn. However, his sexuality is irrelevant. Should the news mention the fact the man who ate off someone's face was straight? There are horrendous acts committed every day by every race, religion, and sexual orientation. Whatever your point, I'm sure it is moot.

What makes you think that the killings in Mexico are not being video taped? Where do you think he got the idea to video tape his killing? Do a search on google for mexican chainsaw beheading. The many websites that host these videos have tons of pictures and videos of mexican cartels killings. Mexicans cartels are ruthless when it comes to killing people and love to video tape it strike fear into their enemies.

    Is that why there have been so many individual "feet" floating in the Waters around the Vancouver, B.C., Pacific Ocean areas in the N.W.? Are those "his marks" of murder---Is he a substitute Shark?

      Nearly every time I see an extremely violent or depraved act it is some deviant gone crazy. I watched a show where a dude was slashed acroos the face, knife driven six inches into his ear then the other, 48 wounds all very deep. When a female investigator was on scene her first comments, when hearing the severity or the wounds, was to ask if this was gay love gone bad. Jeffrey Dahmer liked to have gay sex and eat his victims eventually. This freak is probably different because he was born that way in Canada.

      Strange thing is all of Dahmers victimsand Dahmer, the guy in this article and his possible victims, and the guys from the show I mentioned dead or alive will cast a couple votes each for obumbler in November.

        #1.23 - Fri Jun 8, 2012 1:04 PM EDT

        humans have ALWAYS loved killing each other over anything...so killing someone isnt exactly outrageous or shocking. the METHOD is what is interesting.

        and the fact that he uploaded this to a Gore site, where im assuming the bulk of the stuff before was just "fake" but obviously gore-iffic...is interesting to me. not so much the "attention seeking" - thats obvious.

        rather, what is interesting to me is the fine line between the people who go to that site and find it "entertaining" and this guy, who upped the anty with a real, not fake, killing.

        I cant help but wonder if he simply did what all the other viewers want to do, but dont have the balls to do. Otherwise, I cant quite understand what sort of person finds that sort of stuff as "entertainment"?

            Seems like every time there is a disaster we come to their aid. Don't remember anyone offering to help during one of or many disasters. Oh, thats right, 'the arrogant bastards can help themselves'

            I hope that one day we come to our senses and take care of ourselves and leave people like you in the cespool that you created. Won't happen. Why, because you speak loudly to cover the fact that you only speak for yourself.

            With the size and resources of our country, we don't have many of what other countries would consider 'disasters'. We may think loss of property and wealth a disaster, but most other cultures consider loss of LIFE to be disastrous. It is well documented that many countries offered aid to during our biggest disaster - KATRINA and that aid was turned down by our government. If you don't remember, it is because you are choosing to not remember.

As soon as there's an earth quake or a flood here come the hoards wanting the US to bail them out. We're the good guys then. Frankly it would be fine with most of us citizens of the US if we shut down the borders and cut off all the foreign aid to countries that take our money with one hand and slap us in the face with the other.

              Leroy: I know Tim Hortons is THE source of Canadian pride (half of my family lives north of the border, so I hear it often), but I hate to tell you that it isn't really 100% Canadian. In 1995, TH was taken over by Wendy's (a US company). Wendy's spun it off in 2006, but it is now a public company listed on both the NYSE and TSX. So, you could argue it is as much a US company as a Canadian one (though the head office is in Oakville, ON).

              I'm no peacenick, but this US-bashing by Canadians and Canadian-bashing by Americans is pretty ludicrous. Half of the population in the US north of the Mason-Dixon line has family in Canada, while the majority of Canadians south of Hudson Bay have American cousins (including me).

              I know this is beside the point of this article, but so, too, is you and xsited1 bringing misplaced nationalism into this discussion. The issue here is a sick pup (of whatever nationality) doing really sick things to other people.

              No, here in Canada our own people come first- we don't force our country into a recession by allowing our governement to dump billions into the senseless wars we don't start.

              Might have something to do with the fact Canada consistently gets voted in the top 10 for quality of life, something you clearly know little about.

              Don't worry- you have an election coming up. Surely it's almost time to start another war, is it not? That is, if your citizens actually show up and vote for an election and not American Idol.

              I'm willing to bet you don't even own a passport. But that's ok too- just keep thinking we live in igloos up here, and have "no military". We get off on your total ignorance.

                  This is more likely about wanting to talk to Magnotta, because they have a good idea he was in LA. They can't say he was and not let more details slip then they might want to be sure they have the right guy. Funny thing is that some people will actually confess to crimes they didn't commit.

                  AussieRob,

                  Contrary to popular belief, the police don't know exactly where people are all the time. People move in and out of areas.

                  And what records would you be thinking of? Voter registration... great if you're a registered voter. Drivers license... great if you have a license, and kept your address up to date. Sex offender registry... great if your a sex offender that actually registers. Actors guild.... great if you're a member and again if you keep them informed of your whereabouts. Of course, they could start with interviewing all the porn actors and see if they've ever had any "interactions" with the individual.

                  So, in reality, there is no way for them to know where you are. It might be possible to backtrack forensically IF you have a viable starting point, but real life isn't CSI as shown on TV.

                  If this guy is convicted and given a life sentence in Canada we should just let them keep him. Canada will not extradite him to the US unless the US government waives the death penalty, so we could not do any more to him than the Canadians. Why should we waste our tax dollars putting the guy on trial and keeping him housed, fed, and given medical care in a US prison if the Canadians are already doing it. The need for some DA to get some press coverage and up his conviction stats is not reason enough to spend the money. If the police are certain this guy is the killer then they should just close the case and let Canada bear the expense of taking care of him for the rest of his life.

                  That's all fine but I don't understand why they want to talk to the Canadian Police, unless they just mean they want the Canadian Police to ask the suspect the question. In case why bother with asking about where he lived, wouldn't you just have them ask him if he committed this other crime? Considering he video taped a murder and posted it online he seems like someone who likes the attention.

                  AussieRob, they have to get the Canadian Police permission to question him. Magnotta videotaped the murder he committed in CANADA. If he committed the murder in LA, we don't know if he videotaped that or not. It might surprise you to know that if a person is in custody, say in Rhode Island, and the Massachusetts police want to question him or her, the Massachusetts police has to get Rhode Island's permission.

                  JS - as usual you make a good point. Unfortunately for me, though, as some of my tax dollars will go to making sure this sick puppy has 3 squares a day, medical and dental care (ouch), wasted time with a shrink, etc. However it would be good if the Hollywood killing could be solved so the police can take that one off the books if nothing else. There are times I wished we had not rescinded the death penalty here and this is one of them.

                  I'm in Canada and I can tell you that we don't want him here either!!!! Our judicial system is an absolute joke. Life means 25 years with parole likely after 2/3 of that is served. Our prisoners here have it better than many free citizens.

                  I've seen thie video. It's gruesom. Even that is an under statement. I vote for pushing him out of the plane over the Atlantic, or sending him to China for the Chinese Government to dole out a suitable punishment. I doubt they woul be as lenient as Canada.

                  They need to compare the two case files to be sure that both bodies were killed by the same killer. The MO is similar enough that they feel it could be a possibility, but they need to also look at the specific cuts, was he dismembered pre or post mortem, what instrument was used...etc. They want to examine the suspect, determine if he is a serial killer or was this thing in Canada a one time deal? Where else has he been. Was the corpse in LA cannibalized? did they find the whole body or just the head? Maybe they are hoping he can lead them to the rest of the man.

                  There's a lot more to determining if this guy killed the one in LA than the fact that both bodies had been dismembered and he lived on the west coast for a time... That's just circumstantial and would never hold-up in court.

                  Also, bear in mind that Canada does not have the death penalty wheras California does have that option. If this guy is in fact a serial killer, we might want to try him here and execute him.

                    20 years of appeals no way leave him in canada, also canada wake up, put him in the rack publicly with a pile of rock's for people to throw at him when he bleeding profusly remove him & put in a tank with a few pirannas to nip & chew away & say good ridence.

                      I think that iff he's tried in Canada and sentenced to life and is by some chance able to get out of prison within 25 years or so, a US conviction for the crime committed here could be cause for extradition so he could serve out whatever sentence the US imposed on him. At least this happens in the US when someone commits crimes in several states. The various states try the person, impose sentences and he would then serve them consecutively.

                        Xina - How often does California actually execute death row inmates? It looks like California has 723 death row inmates total, at present time, but not one single execution scheduled for 2012. Hmmm.

                          #3.17 - Fri Jun 8, 2012 1:12 PM EDT

                          Crying shame - not sure - probably not often. But even if we don't execute him, I still think he should stand trial here as well if we find he did it. The victim's family deserve to have closure on their loss as much as the Canadian victim's.

Even without a personal attack on anyone in particular?? Wow, America, you will never get off your high horse willingly will you? You will be knocked off that high horse one day soon, it will be better for you if you get off yourself before that day. It's long overdue, get off, hand over your war criminals and give the rest of the world a long overdue apology for your boorish and overbearing behaviour.

                            Are you done? It's fully clear that your issues with the US extend far beyond that of the responses that some Americans had to this article. "the rest of us blame you for the entire economic mess the world economy is in" is just another variation of "the entire world hates you and is against you", with more specificity. It's bottled up hatred, to the point where you feel the need to incite feelings of isolation. I used to be just as anti-American as you are, until I visited the country. I sincerely hope that it wont actually require a visit for you to see "hate-filled, greedy, murderous" as an overly far-reaching description, even for parts of the south :)

The fact that I'm not no longer filled with the same hatred that you are after visiting the country doesn't mean I'm an American :) In any case, I don't think any country is the "greatest, most pure and moral country", and I think that's a misrepresentation of the type of patriotism that exists here, although I also consider it every bit as contemptible as you do. I don't think you bothered read my comment in it's entirety, due to that same hatred and anger.

Since we want all the news opinions instead of facts, we keep coming back to read it all. Of couse you could sign up for MSN's fully overpriced internet service, getting their full version of msn chat/web/and games without the ads. Why would anyone pay for what is free everywhere else, oh wait, I forgot this is an MSN product, that the ads/pops pay pay so we can use it free.

Do you think he had a valid driver's license (DMV), do you think he paid taxes (IRS) -- he's a scumbag who had to at one point he'd get caught -- so why abide by the rules like normal people. Death penalty case? I sure hope so.

                                            If there is a reason to return capital punishment to Canada then this animal is it. I'm already offended that high profile lawyers are lining up to defend this "thing" and the taxpayer will be paying for it. He'll plead insanity and be put into an air conditioned facility where he'll be looked after in every conceivable way. To add insult to injury he'll be entitled to medical procedures which include sex change operations and again, the tax payer will be paying.
                                            There is no such thing as true justice any more. We're witnessing the collapse of society and the lunatics are running the show.

                                            sheesh.

                                              Hey, I've been wondering. Does Chris Mathews still get a "tickle running up his leg" when he hears Obama's name mentioned. That was hysterical!!

                                              He was in the acting field, if you can consider pornography acting.
