It seems that right now if you are a police department and have some random killing in the last few years that involved the dismembering of body parts you are trying to do anything you can to show the cannibal porn star is the one who did the killing. In the south of France, there are some body parts that have turned up and police there are convinced that Luka Magnotta did it. Here in the Hollywood Hills, those missing body parts from last year? Blame it on Luka. I actually think he might have done that one. Now, Miami police think Luka might be responsible for a 2009 killing and dismembering of a body there which was dumped into a river. The thing is, the guy traveled so much that it's quite possible he did do all these crimes. Someone who kills and dismembers probably did not just start killing people last week.
I don't want to think about this. Glad he's been caught.
ReplyDeleteIf he isn't a textbook example of why we need the death penalty, I don't know what is.
ReplyDeleteSomewhere a screenwriter is glued to their Mac
ReplyDeleteJust put a bullet between his eyes and call it a day. If I had seen this picture and didn't know anything about him, I would say he looked like a murderer. Dude gives me the creeps.
ReplyDeleteCan the press please stop using the word "porn star", he was a unknown until the 1 lunatic 1 ice pick. Please start using wannabe gay porn actor. Thxs
ReplyDeletesecond what @strawberrygirls said.
ReplyDeleteAnimals like this just need to be put down.
No one "needs" the death penalty. It's not a deterrent and a barbaric practice. Life in prison would suck way worse, especially for a young person.
ReplyDeleteI work in prison and trust me when I say this. Prison isn't all that horrible to an outlaw. It is no different than being away at college. Here in California it really does equate to a country club. Especially for sex offenders and high notoriety inmates. They are protected to no end. The more heinous the crime the safer the unit he is housed in.
DeleteBeing in prison is not like being in college. That's ridiculous.
DeleteAs far as prisoners being protected, they should be. Sure there are some specific prisoners or types of prisoners I don't care about and wouldn't shed a tear for if they were bullied, raped, beaten, or murdered. Generally speaking though, that shouldn't be allowed at all. Not everyone convicted is guilty, and I'd like to think that we, as a society, are better than our worst in prisons.
I work in a prison too. Maximum security. Life there is hell. Which is exactly what a lot of these guys deserve - their world is one of constant fear, degradation, hopelessness and violence. However, we also have as wide a spectrum of people as on the 'outside'. Guys who made a mistake and are haunted by it, or grew up in such horrible circumstances they never really had a chance to begin with. We also have one I believe to be innocent (only 1 though).
DeleteI am a firm believer in the death penalty. I have been with a number of inmates as they face death alone from cancer, AIDS, etc and believe-you-me, they get everything their victims wish upon them. Sometimes a painless end you could prepare for would be a more merciful way to go.
Nita-he isnt sane. Put him out if his misery.
ReplyDeleteAnd supa, dude, you're upset he's giving porn stars a bad name? I gotta say, thats the least of his murderous deeds!
It's mind-boggling that there can be this many unsolved dismemberment killings around the world -- I had no idea it was this difficult, in tnis day and age, to find clues to such murders. It just seems there would be so many clues, for some reason.
ReplyDeleteWhat about some type of public torture for someone like him. And let me say first when we are 100% sure the person is guilty. Take Luka and put him in a see through cage in Times Square. Wearing only a thong. Put some critters in the cage that will keep biting him. Like fire ants. Allow all that will look to see him in agony. That may deter future monsters like him. Maybe.
ReplyDeletePrison will totally suck for this guy. He needs attention and hair products and cameras. The death penalty won't bring his victims back, it's pointless.
ReplyDeleteAunt Liddy, I'm still laughing at the sadness of a Walmart Outlet so I can't argue with you ;)
I don't give a damn if the death penalty is a deterrent or not. Crazy like this can't be fixed. I'd rather see my tax dollars go to repairing the infrastructure, or schools, or the space program instead of giving this POS 3 squares and a cot for the next 60 years. Put him down like you'd put down a rabid squirrel.
ReplyDeleteI really believe this guy should be tortured by slowly cutting him into peices.
ReplyDeleteIf you wanna watch someone be tortured, google 1 lunatic 1 ice pick. FFS. I get that it was horrible but I don't get how you can want to watch a person be tortured as long as they've done something to deserve it.
ReplyDeleteAnd enough with the tax dollars BS. We all know death costs more.
You people really bum me out. I think you'd be more at home in a different century.
Canada doesn't have the death penalty so that's a moot point. Also, it actually costs more to put a prisoner to death (due to the legal costs of appeal) than to put him in prison for life. With that said, I think this guy will probably get shanked in prison the same way Jeffery Dahmer did.
ReplyDeleteI think it's awful. And not to make light of anything, but his mug shot seems to resemble ScarJo with short hair.
ReplyDeleteThat's his passport photo and not his mug shot. His mug ahot pic he is wearing a tank top and has a closely cropped buzz. Looks diff without make up or photoshop.
DeleteAhh, yeah I noticed that later. Lol, thanks.
DeleteI think it's awful. And not to make light of anything, but his mug shot seems to resemble ScarJo with short hair.
ReplyDeleteI think this is where we can learn from China.
ReplyDelete"I work in prison and trust me when I say this. Prison isn't all that horrible to an outlaw. It is no different than being away at college. Here in California it really does equate to a country club."
ReplyDeleteOh shut up.
@Kelley, I was just going to ask if anyone else thought he looked like ScarJo...they look like twins.
ReplyDeleteI have mixed feelings about the death penalty as I would guess many people do. If the police and courts were absolutely sure that they had the right person, and the penalty was carried out in an expedient manner then it might be a deterrent.
ReplyDeleteIs prison to rehabilitate or to punish? When a prisoner can get TV, exercise equipment, libraries, medical care and their college degree when an honest hardworking kid can't, and we pay the tab...I get the feeling we aren't doing things right.
A rabid animal needs to be put down.
Reading this post and some of the comments makes me sick. What this guy did is disgusting and horrifying and shows how sick and twisted some individuals are. But saying that he deserves a bullet in the middle of his head, or he deserves to be tortured and dismembered just shows that he is not the only sick individual society has to offer.
ReplyDeleteThis guy definitely deserves to rot in hell and pay for the crimes he committed but vocalizing the violent things you wish to see done to him or that you wish to do to him is also sick and disturbing. Don't stoop to his level. Do I think he deserves the death penalty? Hell ya. Do I want to see him cut up and brutally murdered or shot to death? No. I can't think of any reason anyone would want to watch that except for sick perversion.
Sorry if I offended anyone, I just felt like some of these comments were moving from obtaining justice, to the most dangerous game.
Well said.
DeleteDitto Anita_Mark, and Chris.
ReplyDelete@ __-__=__ - learn from China? Really? Execute political prisoners ans sell their organs to rich westerners? Execute political prisoners and sell their bodies to for-profit companies who create museum tours of partially dissected bodies and call it "science"?
For every other mouth-breather advocating torture, get a grip. Life imprisonment is the worst thing for someone like this.
@ liteNOTSObrite
Maximum security prisons are filthy, smelly, acrid, and disgusting places to live.
One of my relative provides instillation of extremely high-tech security systems to prisons (and other institutions that require super-duper security) in North America. There may be some low-security prisons that are "country club-ish", but that isn't the norm for prisons. He spends up to three weeks per prison install the system in all areas of the prison. He's worked in DOZENS of institutions. Frankly, liteNOTSObrite,I think you're full of beans at your claim to work in a prison. Or if you really do, it is in an office in a minimum security prison - and definitely one of the new ones.
Yep. This guy will not be going to Camp Cupckae like Martha Stewrart did.
Deleteand he's one of many.
ReplyDeleteI worked for 20 years in Maximum security prisons. The really highly classified prisoners on come out of their cells for Doctor Visits that type of thing and when they do they have to wear ankle chains and belly chains with a Sgt. and 2 guards with them. Sometimes because of their level I as a Lt. had to go along. I had 3 friends killed (guards) in the prison system then had to deal with their murderers. Prison depends on your classification.
ReplyDeleteEnty, please hire some editors. Even the title link's have typos. I beg of you. For the love of blind items, please get your spellcheck on!!!
ReplyDeletelinks* not link's.
ReplyDeleteOh this topic deserves so much more time than I have to give it.
ReplyDeleteI can't support the death penalty because I could not "flip the switch". However, if someone else can and it is less money to the two layers I think itnis a viable option.
From what some of you have said the death penalty is more tax payer money. Is that the norm or the exeption created by those that are super motivated to milk the system or are actually innocent?
I have not read much about this guys background. It doesn't matter much but I am interested. What created such a person?
Unless he is in solitary confinement he will probably get what he deserves from another prisoner. It couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
ReplyDeleteHe's ScarJo with a penis. he'll be a play toy to pass around.
ReplyDeleteJustice is mine sayeth the Lord.
ReplyDeleteJust because he is an animal, does not mean we should treat him like any less like a human.
I don't believe in murder, his kind or the judicial kind. They are both still wrong.
I think a life in prison is punishment enough, having to live with the effects of your crime until your last breath seems a harsh enough punishment to me
As long as he stays in prison with no chance of getting out, fine. But I just hope we don't hear about him getting out sooner b/c I'm sure he'll do it again. I don't really believe in reform when you're dealing with this level of murderer.
ReplyDeleteburn him at the stake
ReplyDeleteburn him at the stake
ReplyDeleteFor me, the fact that we have very likely executed innocent people and would continue to do so if the death penalty returned to widespread use is important to any discussion of the death penalty. The statistics as to the number of convictions of innocent people from the Innocence Project and other such efforts are tryly scary. Of course, if the proponents are just venting, then never mind.
