Luka Magnotta is taken by police from a Canadian military plane to a waiting van in Mirabel, Quebec on Monday.
Updated at 8:11 p.m. ET: Luka Magnotta, accused of killing and dismembering a 33-year-old Chinese student in Montreal, arrived in Canada on Monday evening, touching down at Montreal's Mirabel Airport aboard a military jet. He was traveling with a Montreal police escort, according to Canadian news reports.
Magnotta, 29, was arrested at an Internet cafe in the German capital of Berlin on June 4 after a 10-day manhunt. He is expected to appear in a Quebec court within 24 hours.
Rob Nicholson, Canada’s minister of justice, and Vic Toews, minister of public safety, issued a statement Monday about Magnotta’s extradition: "The Government of Canada thanks the Government of Germany for their swift and decisive action in this matter. Canada values the cooperation of its international partners in the fight against crime.”

Magnotta, born Eric Newman, was a porn actor and escort who reportedly has at least 70 Facebook pages, including some with violent language about killing lovers.
Canadian authorities allege that he filmed the murder and dismemberment of Lin Jun, a Concordia University student, in late May; posted the footage on a website dedicated to gore; and then mailed Lin’s hands and feet to political parties in Ottawa and schools in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Police distributed this photo of Luka Rocco Magnotta, suspected of killing and dismembering a Chinese student. Magnotta was extradited to Canada from Germany on Monday.
Lin’s torso was found in a suitcase in the alley of Magnotta’s apartment building. His head has not been recovered.
Police believe that after mailing Lin’s body parts, Magnotta flew to Paris, where he partied for several days before heading to Germany. When authorities found him at the Internet café in Berlin, he was reading about himself, according to media reports.

Lin’s family arrived in Canada from China earlier in June and issued an open letter written in Chinese, thanking Canadians for their support following their son’s slaying, Radio-Canada reported.

Too bad Canada doesn't have the death penalty.
It being Canada, they will probably sentence Magnotta to house arrest and free medical marijuana.
You're thinking of the USA's criminal system for corporate executives & the 1%.
He may be involved with the dismembered body found in the Hollywood Hills of California in Jan 2012, so if more evidence is found regarding that.....he may be extradited again to the USA to serve justice for that murder....and California DOES have a death penalty. There is also a time frame that ties him to a dismembered corpse found in Tuscon, Arizona ....so there may yet be the option of capital punishment regarding Magnotta.
.
Tucson/Phoenix dismemberment courtesy drug cartels. California/Hollywood may very well be him.

I could be wrong, but unfortunately I don't think Canada will extradite him unless we take the possibility of the death penalty away in a trial for this man.
I thought it said 'expedited' - like in four or five Fedex boxes.
Violent temper lover quarrel..
@phauno33, knowsrightandwrong is correct if he is indeed involved in any US murders in order for Canada to agree to extradite those US Jurisdictions would have to agree not to seek the death penalty against him. It is unfortunate especially in the case but Canada as far I can remember as held firm on this in all cases.
Let Canada keep him, and pay for his upkeep. Not for us to worry.
Mailed the body parts really???? I would not want to be the person who got that package. What a sicko!!!!!
Obviously the answer is to ban gay porn, it is just like guns causing all the mayhem.
What a sullen looking sicko, too bad they can't accidentally drop him over the mid-Atlantic on the way back.
...right into the mouth of a very hungry shark.
Hey we've located 69 more non-unique Facebook users!!! More evidence for the Facebook stock debacle!!
What an ugly "thing" he is. He's so unclean, I'm glad I'm not the one who has to touch him. Barf.
He won't last long in prison.
Oh, he'll have a grand time in prison!
Canada has one of the easiest prison systems he'll be out in no time.
Yep prison in Canada is a cake walk compared to the US. This is from the Canadian prison system website.
Under Section 745 of the Criminal Code of Canada, offenders serving a life sentence for murder may be considered for parole after serving 15 years of their sentences.
Offenders serving life sentences for first-degree murder become eligible for unescorted temporary absences and day parole three years before their full parole eligibility date (normally 25 years). An offender may apply for escorted temporary absences after admission to a federal institution.
Canada unlike the USA believes they can reform prisoners even psycho depraved ones. It would be possible for a life sentence to be life if it becomes a psychiatric detainment but who knows how likely that is.
Canada is not like us they believe in reform
He will enjoy prison. He will probably take over.
Prison will be right "up his alley"!
Another Human experiment gone bad...
Weird and revolting as this story may be, it still takes second place behind the guy who seized a homeless man and started chewing the unfortunate man's face off, after stripping naked and ripping his victims clothes off.
How is it a person's brain can become so twisted, and yet still be capable of instructing the lungs to draw in air, and the heart to pump oxygenated blood throughout the body? It would be nice if when a person reaches these levels of derangement, they would first feel impelled to put a plastic bag over their head and tie it off around their neck.
But, no such luck.
The guy who ate the homeless mans face had just finished sniffing bath salts...people will do anything to get high. In the matter of this sick f*ck, thats just wrong and sick and I am appalled. People are sick and this world is sick, it seems like the good people are getting less and less.
Actually, I would say that this incident was very disturbing and my opinion just as, if not completly worse than the Miami incident.
Of course what happened in Miami was horrific, but what this guy did was videotaped and I don't know if some of you have seen it or not but I watched it and it was absolutely terrifying.
It won't be too long before Magnotta ends up getting 'Dahmer'd' in prison. Someone will get to him.
I saw the short 11 minute video of it..not the longer one where they say he ate some.
Some said it was fake the video..but doubt that, or they were the greatest makeup artists and special effects persons in the world.
I can't argue with any of these replies. Let's just say that both people represent what [we hope] are the outer limits of human depravity. The Miami person is dead, and I have to say that is the probably the best end for him. This other clown will not face the death penalty, but seriously, if every anybody deserved some .357 justice, it is him.
Bad world out there sometimes.
I can't believe some of you can actually watch what this sicko did.
That is exactly what he wants and why he posted it online.
It doesnt show him eating any part of the body. You do see him taking a knife to the man's buttock and then picking up a piece of flesh with a fork, but you don't see him eat it.
Also, the video is authentic and I too, did at first think it was fake. The video starts and shows the victim clearly alive but tied up. Magnatta cut his throat and killed him off camera before he came back and retarting the recording. By that time, the victim had already been beheaded and then the arms and legs. In the middle of all of that is the stabbing and slicing. You then see Magnotta having intercourse with only the torso.
One thing about the Miami incident was that the offender didn't actually consume any of the victim's flesh, he basically just chewed it off and spit it out. The victim in that case seems to be doing better and better everyday now.
I would recommend cruel and unusual punishment, sorry but there are people who deserve it.
Were they able to reassemble the guy he dismembered?
(What???)
All we need is one cell for people like this low life. This saves on cost of prisons.
2 words: Draw/Quarter
Don't underestimate the Canadian Prison System. Found guilty he will spend the rest of his life in a 3x5 cell in isolation "solitary confinement" with little to no contact with anyone. Does that sound fun to anyone? Although he may be paroled when he is 80
Those sentences are for PC violators like white males that don't believe in global warming or gay marriage.
This guy is gay so he will get a $50 dollar fine (at best)
A 15 sq meter cell? That's a palace
The solitary cells (actually, concrete boxes) at Pelican Bay, the worst prison here in California, are 8x10 square feet! Nearly half the size. And then there's the torture. And the damp, freezing conditions..
Canada's too nice for this guy.
Luka Magnotta, suspected dismemberment killer, extradited to Canada
....................................................$50 dollar fine (maximum)
Since they forgot to drop the @!$%# in the Atlantic, I would propose a firing squad. Unfortunately, that would be too lame for him.
Put him in the hospital,put him under and Cut all his body parts off(arm,legs) and then wake him up to a big mirror over his body so he can see him lying there limbless. Then put him in a insanity aslum for the rest of his life,which shouldn't be to long for he'll go crazy and die before 2 years is up. Sounds like a good plan of punishment to me.
Either that,I hope Canada has a death pentility,and better than USA death pentility,don't wait 20 years,kill him sooner...Kill the fagget.....
What's the difference in sentencing him in Canada or USA.....he's a sick individual and needs to die...period. What's there to ponder??? We don't need to support him in jail using thousands and thousands of dollars a year to incarcerate him...just get rid of him. He doesn't deserve to breathe the same air as the rest of us. Pleaseeeee...just be rid of him. Just looking at him gives me the willies.....
America take note, this is how you communicate with other countries. Swift justice.
So he should at least get a harsh 2 week canadian sentence then along with a stern talking to .
Doesn't Canada have notoriously cushy prisons?
Say what you want about foreign prisons and countries not having the death penalty. They also have far lower violent crime rates. Violent murderers get life in prison in Canada and at least the murder of a human being yields more time in prison than some of the laws we now have in the United States, non-violent and enacted solely for the sake of political grandstanding.
25 years is not a life sentence Captive ..
I hope they checked his carry-on bags really, really, well.
As he cuts down on all that fleshy red meat, prison life will work wonders for his complexion.
If Canada had any balls, they'd send the scumbag to China for trial.
Oh, like you wouldn't be reading about yourself too.
I just hope and pray that this sick monstrous F*ck never, ever walks the streets a free man again...
@Joe C.-3574720..what the hell are you talking about..he didn't commit the crime in China..brush up on the laws before you spew..
