Luka Magnotta claims to change prison. The man sentenced to life for killing a Chinese student in Canada is currently incarcerated in a maximum security center.
Luka Rocco Magnotta wants to change prison. The man who has been nicknamed the “Montreal skinner” since the murder of a Chinese student in Canada is currently incarcerated in a maximum security prison and is demanding to be moved to a medium security prison, reports the “Journal de Montréal”. Luka Magnotta was sentenced to life in prison and will not be able to seek release until 2037. The Federal Court in Ottawa has so far rejected his request, prompting the killer to appeal, believing that the authorities are doing anything to slow down his transfer request.
If the killer manages to be moved, he will have to leave the man he married within the walls of the Port-Cartier penitentiary. In 2017, it was announced that he had met his future husband, a fellow prisoner, on a dating site for prisoners. In his announcement, the murderer said he wanted a “single white man, between 28 and 38 years old, in good shape”. “If you think you are my prince charming, send me a detailed letter with at least two photos. Only those I find compatible with me will receive a response. Please only serious inquiries. All unsolicited letters will be rejected,” he continued. A few weeks after placing his ad, he asked to have it removed, claiming to have “found what he was looking for”.
On the run to Paris
From his real name, Eric Clinton Kirk Newman, Luka Magnotta was sentenced in December 2014 to life imprisonment with a 25-year security sentence. He was given 25 years for premeditated murder, 5 years for contempt of a corpse, 2 years for producing and distributing obscene material, 2 years for using the post office and for sending obscene material, and 10 for criminal harassment of the Prime minister and other members of the government.

After killing his one-night lover, Lin Jun, in 2012, the killer released the footage of his crime on the Internet. In this unbearable video entitled “1 Lunatic 1 Icepick”, we discovered the young man in the process of attacking his victim, tied to a bed, using an ice pick before cutting the body into pieces. After the police discovered the video on the Internet, a real manhunt began. It had finally ended in Europe, where the young man had found refuge. He was arrested on June 4, 2012 in Berlin after a run that had taken him to Paris.
On May 29, three days after the victim was brutally killed with an ice pick and then cut up, his torso was found in a heap of garbage located at the back of Luka Rocco Magnotta’s home. The same day, the headquarters of the Conservative Party, in power in Canada, had received a package in Ottawa containing one of his feet in a state of decomposition. Then, the next day, the post office in Vancouver intercepted a package destined for the Liberal Party HQ, this time containing a hand. On June 5, two schools in Vancouver had received the other foot and the other hand from the Chinese. His head had been found in a park in Montreal. His lawyers had pleaded non-civil liability, highlighting the mental disorders of their client. According to them, Luka Rocco Magnotta – judged for having killed and cut up his one-night lover before using his amputated arm to masturbate, and committing an act of cannibalism – did not distinguish between good and evil at the time of the facts. .
