Timeline
Below is a basic Timeline of events, articles and webpages that I feel may be of relevance to gaining an insight into Luka Magnotta leading up to the murder of Jun Lin. The files are listed in chronological order detailing the originating website, author and synopsis of the contents. I decided to archive copies of these webpages on my Hotmail SkyDrive in PDF and/or JPEG formats. The direct download link to the individual files is included after the synopsis.
I have written separate pages with biographical details about Luka Magnotta's life and career and a more comprehensive list of Luka's Web activities. I also decided not to go into great detail about the kitten killing saga and ensuing hate campaign against Luka Magnotta, save for a couple of recent revelations. Instead I wrote a blog about it here.
NB: The websites listed here are not necessarily direct links to the documented webpages I mention, which may have been removed by the websites hosting the content. I have highlighted in red type suspected aliases and sockpuppets allegedly used by Luka Magnotta to create articles and postings about himself.
Some of the webpages featured may contain explicit content, so be advised to view with caution although I have not including links to sites containing gore imagery. The 1 Lunatic 1 Ice Pick video is NOT linked anywhere on this site, you will have to find 'a dramatic encyclopedia' (yes I know it is not spelt that way) to view it, if you must!
June 2005 - LM was convicted on three counts of fraud (against Sears Canada, The Brick, and 2001 Audio Video) after coercing a vulnerable 21-year-old woman to purchase $16,900 of goods for him and fraudulently obtaining a credit card in her name. During the Trial proceedings LM's lawyer Peter B. Scully wrote to Toronto Police expressing his concerns that his client might be in danger of violent reprisals from the victim's irate father who was a powerful man in the Greek community. I have written a recent blog about the Fraud trial or you can read the full story in The Globe and Mail.
17th July 2006 - Eric Clinton Kirk Newman legally changes his name to become known as Luka Rocco Magnotta...and thus beginneth his life's work as he sets about creating a legend for himself as an iconic "Internet sensation"! Official notification of LM's name change was published in The Ontario Gazette on 12th August 2006.

March 2007 - 24-year-old Luka Rocco Magnotta files for bankruptcy in Mississauga, Ontario, with a list of debts at around $17,000. He cites "illness, lack of employment and insufficient income to pay off debts" as reasons for his bankruptcy, with $200 monthly expenditure on medication for an unspecified medical condition. Read the story here on Ottawa Citizen.
Luka Magnotta at the Toronto Sun
September 2007 - Toronto Sun - After appearing on a radio phone-in show on Toronto's AM640, LM gives an interview to Joe Warmington of the Toronto Sun to deny "rumours" he was dating serial-killer Karla Homolka. It is widely speculated that LM himself was the source of many of these internet rumours.
27th January 2008 – Wikipedia – A Wikipedia page created in 2007 by Luka Magnotta about himself is deleted after lengthy discussion by Wiki contributors and Admins concluded that LM was a non-notable model/porn actor. During the discussion thread it is pointed out that numerous contributions by sock-puppet identities supportive of LM's Wiki entry flooded the discussion in an attempt to retain the page.
[PDF of Wiki deletion thread]
I personally believe that LM's desperation to receive recognition and notability, particularly on Wikipedia, is a highly significant factor in this case. Somewhat ironic that he ultimately got what he wanted after the murder of Jun Lin, but then LM undoubtedly realised that such a crime would give him notoriety and notability.
1st March 2008 - YouTube - megaman999megaman - Throughout 2008 LM decides to wage war against the satirical cartoon series Family Guy on YouTube - for reasons I suspect known only to himself - in an attempt to get the series banned by posting several video broadcasts airing his grievances. He follows a familiar pattern of setting up accounts then multiple sockpuppet accounts to post supportive comments, ending up with his own accounts being banned in the process. The YouTube link is to a video uploaded on 1st March 2008 by LtGradient parodying Luka's YouTube activities.

Having never seen the series myself I have no idea what all the fuss was about, but it certainly gained LM an army of detractors it would appear.
22nd July 2008 – Wikipedia – An attempt by Luka Magnotta to resurrect his Wikipedia entry is also deleted after discussion, again because he failed to meet notability criteria. [PDF of Wiki deletion thread]
16th May 2009 - Luka Magnotta Facebook page is created. The first of 70 Facebook accounts it is claimed that he created. There is a good article on Luka Magnotta's Facebook activities on Macleans.ca. It would appear that the bulk of these Facebook pages were created from 2011 onwards.
1st June 2009 - Digital Journal - Rocco Magnotta - LM posts an article entitled "How to Completely Disappear and Never Be Found". This article is widely acknowledged to be have been largely plagiarised by LM.[PDF 651Kb]
4th January 2011-25th January 2011 – businessinsider.com – Luka Magnotta - Whilst living in New York during January 2011, LM contacts lawyer Romeo Salta to seek legal advice about groups of animal rights activists he claims are persecuting him and seeking to bring him to justice in connection with alleged animal rights abuse claims. LM also details in his emails to Mr. Salta incidents of serious abuse against him by someone he referred to as 'Manny', alleging that he was kidnapped by 'Manny' and taken to Miami where he was abused and repeatedly raped. NYC and Miami Police Departments were purportedly informed by LM but failed to act and LM says he was briefly admitted to the psyche ward of a Florida hospital as a result of his injuries. The story was covered with a PDF of LM's emails to Rome Salta on businessinsider.com, 13th June 2012. [PDF 1.18Mb]
Screen Capture [JPEG 2.9Mb] Rome Salta emails [PDF 234Kb]
N.B. It is worth noting that LM's allegations of rape and abuse by 'Manny' comes less than a month after a LM sockpuppet posted a thread on SMplace looking to meet "dominant sadistic thinking men" into BDSM. However LM subsequently makes reference to the rape allegations in a post he made on PsycheCentral on 1st September 2011. See Luka's Web
'Rocco' by Paul Mason
1st May 2011 - Montreal Photographer Paul Mason meets LM at his apartment after he responded to an advertisement on Craiglist in April 2011. LM calls himself 'Rocco' and throughout the photoshoot speaks with an Eastern European accent citing his Russian and Italian heritage. Very insightful interview with Paul Mason on Macleans.ca, 7th June 2012, about his encounter with Luka 'Rocco' Magnotta during this unpaid photoshoot.

8th December 2011 - LM is on vacation in England when he is confronted by Sun reporter Alex West at his B&B, The Fusilier Pub in Wembley, London.
During a 20-minute face-to-face interview with Alex West LM denies any involvement in the notorious kitten killing videos uploaded to YouTube during 2010-2011.
Shortly after the interview with Alex West officers from the Metropolitan Police arrive and escort LM off of the premises for not paying his £40 per night room rental.

10th December 2011 - The Sun Newsdesk receives an email from someone calling themselves 'John Kilbride' (a twisted reference to a victim of the Moors Murderers) clearly intimating at the meeting with Alex West on 8th December and glibly admitting involvement in the kitten killing videos.
12th December 2011 - Sun reporter Alex West contacts the Metropolitan Police and is referred to the malicious communications unit at Islington Police Station where he hands over the evidence of the email from 'John Kilbride' plus copies of the intelligence he has gathered on Luka Magnotta and his alleged animal cruelty.
I have written more about the Alex West story in a recent blog

17th January 2012 - Someone going by the name of Eric C. Newman was stopped by police in Payson, Arizona and was issued with a traffic ticket under Case Number: M-0447-SP-2012001076. It could just be coincidence, of course, as there is no mention of nationality, date of birth, residential address or the middle names (which should read as Eric C. K. Newman, surely?). Nonetheless it is intriguing that the case was dismissed and closed on 7th June 2012 (3 days after LM's arrest).
I personally do not believe that the person mentioned in this citation is Luka Magnotta. There is no credible evidence that he ever travelled to Arizona, indeed recent news reports place him in Montreal around this time.
22nd January 2012 - www.blogspot.nl - LukaMagnotta LukaMagnotta - LM creates a blogspot page with pictures of himself and a video link to a German news report covering the kitten killing story. The blog is tagged with LM alleged alias 'cutelittlenemo1'.[PDF 244Kb]
22nd February 2012 – www.blogspot.nl – LukaMagnotta LukaMagnotta – A very detailed and explicit story covering a wide range of sexual depravities and deviance. It is not clear whether this blog entry was written by LM himself or copied from someone else's (more likely), but it does give a very personal insight into LM's psycho-sexuality and sexual proclivities. Even I couldn't read this one right through, but I read more than enough I'm sorry to say.

22nd April 2012 - YouTube - Rita VanVolkenberg - A video is uploaded entitled 'Cannibal Serial Killer - Luka Magnotta' featuring a slideshow of LM pics (many fake and photoshopped) with the track "True Faith" by New Order accompanying, which is the same track featured in 1 Luatic1 Ice Pick.
15th May 2012 – vimeo.com – Angela Downs – A short “promotional” video is uploaded depicting a person in a purple hoodie with fist clench holding an ice pick, referencing the 1 Lunatic 1 Ice Pick video and asking if anyone knows the “guy” in the video.

24th May 2012 – Last confirmed sighting of 33-year-old Chinese student Jun Lin alive. His mobile phone becomes unobtainable after 9pm.
24th May 2012 – At some point on the evening of 24th-25th May, Jun Lin is brutally murdered and his body dismembered.
24th May 2012 – RipOffReport – Ft. Lauderdale, Florida – A lengthy complaint report is filed on RipOff Report in the modelling, talent agencies thread describing LM as a “dangerous sick psychopath...who is incapable of feeling remorse” and citing a long list of webpages about Magnotta's alleged activities. A subsequent comment left on 25th May 2012 by Tony Luciforia - who is an alleged LM sockpuppet - continues the prose of the report, writing in detail about the definition of psychopathy and sociopathy.

24th May 2012 – RipOffReport – Mario Fucatti – Almost identical complaint report about LM posted to RipOffReport under the bars, lounges and clubs thread at some point on the 24th May 2012. There are four comments associated with this report, two of which were posted on 24th May 2012 including a large section of quotes copied from LM's website and two by Tony Luciforia that were posted on 25th May 2012. It is highly probable that the author of all four comments is one and the same as the author of the report.

24th May 2012 – Scam Informer – robertta9892 – Another 'known' LM sockpuppet reporting LM's alleged kitten killing activities and listing links to news websites reports. However, Robertta9892 leaves a detailed comment with an in-depth psychoanalysis of the features of psychopathy, which appears to me to have been almost entirely plagiarised from a professional source.

24th May 2012 – RipOffReport – Chris Toronto – This is possibly the most curious complaint report that is assumed to have been made by LM on RipOff Report, about a Toronto fitness instructor called Nader Eid. For those not familiar with the name, Nader Eid was a good? friend of LM back in 2006 and according to LM's transsexual ex-girlfriend, Barbie Swallows, Nader and LM were flatmates and Nader Eid had an emotional attachment to LM which was not reciprocated. Again in this report there is a follow up comment from Tony Luciforia posted on 25th May 2012, however it would appear on this occasion that Tony Luciforia is claiming to be Barbie Swallows! Barbie Swallows has since refuted this claim on the Trial Blog website. Pics of LM and Nader Eid below.
[PDF 1.05Mb] ScreenCapture [JPEG 2.18Mb]
N.B. It should be noted that the three RipOff Reports and the Scam Informer Report were filed at some point on the day Jun Lin was murdered and the follow up comments were posted sometime on 25th May 2012 after the murder and dismemberment of Jun Lin's body had taken place!
You would think that the perpetrator of Jun Lin's murder would be somewhat preoccupied with editing and disseminating his 'materpiece' - the 1 Lunatic 1 Ice Pick video - and disposing of the body parts before making good his escape plan! And, that is not taking into account the psychological dynamics of a person having planned and just committed such a heinous crime.
It should be noted that the RipOff Report website does not remove reports once they are filed.
25th May 2012 – BestGore – A video circulating on TOR is posted to Best Gore by website owner Mark Marek entitled 1 Lunatic 1 Ice Pick, which depicts a young male bound on a bed, initially alive, and then lifeless as a person repeatedly stabs the corpse with an ice pick and then dismembers the body with a knife and performs simulated acts of necrophilia and cannibalism.
26th May 2012 – Luka Magnotta flies out of Montreal, Canada onboard Air Transat Flight 610 to Paris, France. Fellow passengers on the flight with Luka describe him as behaving strangely during the flight and in an interview a passenger that was seated next to Luka, said: "he stank of sweat...and was seen crying at the rear of the plane."
27th May 2012 – BestGore – Luka Magnotta is named by members on Best Gore as the perpetrator in the 1 Lunatic 1 Ice Pick video. American lawyer Roger Renville contacts the FBI and the Toronto Police to advise them of the 1 Lunatic 1 Ice Pick on Best Gore, but neither law enforcement agency takes the claims seriously.
29th May 2012 – A package containing a severed left foot is delivered to Conservative Party Headquarters in Ottawa and a package containing a left hand is intercepted by Post Office staff in Ottawa, addressed to Liberal Party HQ. A note enclosed with the package sent to Tory HQ claims there are 6 packages in total and a statement that the killer would strike again. A note was also included in the package sent to Liberal Party HQ. Montreal Police investigators subsequently obtained video CCTV footage of a suspect believed to be mailing the body parts at a Post Office in Cote-des-Neiges district of Montreal.
Eric Schorer showing Police
29th May 2012 – Jun Lin is reported missing by relatives. Mike Nadeau, a resident at 5720 Decarie Blvd, Montreal, reports the gruesome discovery of Jun Lin's torso in a suitcase outside the apartment block. The building manager, Eric Schorer, later confirms that he first saw the suitcase left outside with the rubbish on 25th May.
Inside Apt 208, Decarie Place
Montreal Police (SPVM) obtain CCTV video surveillance from cameras at the apartment block with complete footage of the comings and goings on 24th & 25th May 2012. When Police investigators ask Eric Schorer to identify a male seen on CCTV dragging the suitcase through the lobby, he does not hesitate to name a resident, Luka Magnotta, whom he knew as "Rocco". Full article here on Paris Match (in French).
A disturbing message written by Luka
At 23.33 Montreal Police enter Apt. 208, 5720 Decarie, where they discover a blood stained mattress and other evidence. It is later confirmed that Apt. 208, 5720 Decarie Blvd, had been rented by Luka Magnotta for nearly four months, with the lease due for renewal on 1st June 2012.

Note: The Google English translation gives the gist of the article, but the translation has mixed up the grammar and tense in some cases, i.e. translating "she" instead of "he".
30th May 2012 - Wikipedia - LM finally gets what he has craved since 2007 and that had been denied him because of a lack of notability: his own Luka Magnotta Wikipedia portal!
30th May 2012 – LukaMagnotta is named by police in connection with the torso and body parts case after evidence is found at his address, Apartment 208, linking him to the case. A Canada-wide manhunt begins to find Luka Magnotta.
30th May 2012 –
http://chanarchive.org/4chan/b/47050 (Archiv-Version vom 03.06.2012) – b1UNJBxK – A lengthy discussion thread on 4Chan is started on the Magnotta case. In a blog entry by Kitty LeClaw on Mascara&Murder dated 18th June 2012 it is alleged that LM himself participated in the discussions on this thread whilst on the run, admitting to the killing of Jun Lin and details about the murder etc.. Snippets of the alleged comments by LM are on the Mascara&Murder blog entry for 18th June 2012. As far as I am aware there is no credible independent verification that LM posted these comments on 4chan, but the prose is remarkably similar to LM's style.

He is briefly featured on the front page of the Interpol Most Wanted list with a red notice issued for his arrest and detention in any member state.
4th June 2012 – NewYork Observer – An article linking LM to The Hollywood Sign murder cites suspicious activities on Youtube, including a Youtube channel set up on 1st June 2012 called HollywoodLoveLetters with a video montage of LM pics including some in LA entitled “The James Dean Killer – Luka Rocco Magnotta” uploaded to this account - with clear references in the activity on this account to The Hollywood Sign murder.

Kadir Anlayisli, Internet Cafe, Berlin
4th June 2012 – After 10 days evading a global manhunt Luka Magnotta is arrested at an Internet Cafe in Berlin, Germany after travelling there from Paris by bus under the name K. Trammel.
Luka is reported to have been surfing webpages about himself, when the Cafe Manager, Kadir Anlayisli, recognised him from news reports and flagged down passing Police Cadets and an Instructor.
After initially giving a false identity Luka Magnotta tells the officers, "Ok you got me". He does not resist arrest.
St. Georges School, Vancouver BC
5th June 2012 - A package containing a right foot was delivered to St. Georges School, Vancouver, British Columbia, and a package containing a right hand was delivered to False Creek Elementary School also in Vancouver. It was subsequently confirmed that both body parts belonged to Jun Lin and that the packages were sent from Montreal and contained notes.
It was reported on CBC that Luka Magnotta rented a condo in Vancouver under one of his aliases, although details of exactly where and when and for how long have not been publicly confirmed as of yet. Luka Magnotta was known to have been in Vancouver during 2003 where he made the Street Bait: Luka porn video.
Bankruptcy records also show that Luka Magnotta owed $10,000 to Travelers Auto Leasing in the Burnaby suburb of Vancouver.
I would be truly amazed if sending these body parts to two schools right across the other side of Canada is considered a random occurrence in this crime. I strongly believe that there has to be a link between the perpetrator and these schools, however tenuous it may appear!
6th June 2012 – NewYork Observer – Animal rights activists from an organisation called Last Chance for Animals (LCA) admit to NYO it was their “special investigations unit” that set up the HollywoodLoveLetters Youtube account and posted videos to Youtube with images of LM and referencing the Hollywood Sign Killing in an attempt to “lure in” LM while he was on the run.

Luka Magnotta back in Canada
18th June 2012 - Luka Magnotta is extradited back to Canada from Germany landing at Quebec's Mirabel Airport, aboard a specially chartered Royal Canadian Air Force CC-150 Polaris. He chose not to challenge extradition proceedings. The flight is reputed to have cost the Canadian taxpayer $375,000 because it was felt too much of a risk to fly him home aboard a commercial Airline - assuming one would carry him.
Artist impression of Luka's Court appearance
19th June 2012 - Luka Magnotta appears via live video link from Riviere des Prairies Detention Centre, Montreal, to answer five charges against him and enters a plea of not guilty. He continues to be detained in solitary confinement at Riviere des Prairies.
21st June 2012 - Luka Magnotta makes a surprise personal appearance at a high security courtroom in Montreal, where he elects for a Trial by Judge and Jury and declines a psychological assessment. No application for bail is made and the preliminary Trial hearing is set for March 2013. He is returned to custody at Riviere des Prairies.
Parc Angrignon, Montreal
1st July 2012 - Jun Lin's head is recovered from a small lake in Angrignon Park, Montreal, following an anonymous tip-off to Montreal Police. It has not been confirmed who gave this information to the Police.
You would think that if this tip-off came from a member of the public who discovered Jun Lin's head but wished to remain anonymous, that the Police would simply have said so? Conversely if this information came from Luka Magnotta himself then surely that fact alone compromises his 'not guilty' plea? Curious indeed!
10th July 2012 – CBC – During January 2011 former porn star turned porn director Ron Jeremy discloses that he was approached by associates connected to animal rights groups seeking his participation in setting up a “sting operation” to lure LM to Los Angeles with a phoney offer of work in Jeremy's porn productions. The ploy was the mastermind of New York based animal rights activists Rescue Ink, whose membership comprises police officers and military personnel, to bring LM to “justice” for animal rights abuses allegedly depicting LM killing kittens in several videos uploaded to the internet during 2010-2011. Jeremy got cold feet and the sting operation was shelved.

Diran Lin clutching Jun's ashes at Mount Royal
26th July 2012 - Toronto Sun - The remains of Jun Lin are laid to rest in a funeral service at Mount Royal, Montreal. During the 20-minute service Jun Lin's emotionally distraught father Diran Lin clutched the urn containing his son's ashes. His mother Zhi Gui Du was too overcome to attend, but the family's priest Father Henry Rodrigues gave a statement on her behalf which included compassionate comments about LM: "Initially I considered my son's killer to be a 'devil'...then...I shockingly discovered my other self, who has started to develop sympathy for this person".
