QuotePolice find another human body part in package in Ottawa

Human foot mailed to Tory HQ; police seek link to Montreal torso case

Police found a human hand at the Ottawa Postal Terminal Tuesday night, hours after a bloody foot was delivered to the Conservative party's Ottawa headquarters just blocks from Parliament Hill.

Ottawa police were still trying to understand what they were dealing with, even as detectives in Montreal combed through a crime scene where a torso was found in a suitcase in that city's Snowdon district.

Police discovered the second package, sent from the same origin as the package sent to Tory headquarters containing the foot, Tuesday evening. Officers carried out the second package from the huge Riverside Drive terminal in a brown paper bag, which they X-rayed before they opened it to find the hand.

Police said the package with the hand was not destined for the Conservative Party of Canada, but wouldn't say where it was to be sent. Every letter or package sent to or from Ottawa goes through the central Ottawa terminal.

The gruesome day began shortly before noon when access to the Conservative party's headquarters was restricted after the fire department's Hazmat team was called in to investigate a suspicious package. Firefighters took air samples in the 12th-floor office before the paramedics were allowed to enter.

A party staffer had started to open a blood-stained box that was sent to the office at 130 Albert St. before police were called to investigate.

At first, it was thought there was a human heart inside, but after the box was X-rayed, police confirmed the grisly content was indeed a foot.

The package was addressed to the Conservative Party of Canada and not to a specific person, they said.

About 12 people were in the office when it was delivered, but no one was treated by paramedics once it was determined the package didn't contain hazardous material.

Police officers guarded the main doors to the offices while major crime detectives and a coroner investigated.

Two men in white jumpsuits and masks left the building around 1:45 p.m. pushing a large barrel. Shortly before 5:30 p.m., an Ottawa police officer emerged from the building carrying a yellow plastic bag containing the package.

The Conservative party referred all inquiries to Ottawa police.

"A suspicious package was sent to our office," was all spokesman Fred DeLorey would say to reporters.

Around 3 p.m., Sgt. Steve Hodgson stepped into the hallway and commented on the mood inside.

"Everybody is calm. There's no over-reaction here," he said.

He added that the person who opened the package was also "fine."

There are several other offices on the 12th floor, including the Hotel Association of Canada. The association's executive assistant, Linda Crouch, said police did not inform tenants about the package. Tenants were told to remain in their offices. If they chose to leave the floor they were told they would not be allowed to return for an undetermined amount of time.

A Tory MP who showed up later at his party's headquarters was horrified by the discovery.

"It's just awful," said Brad Trost, who first learned about the incident from TV. He said it was probably someone's "sick idea."

"I don't think any of us are thinking this necessarily has anything to with politics," he said.

Earlier Tuesday in Montreal, police were combing through garbage bags and furniture left on a Snowdon street, looking for body parts after a janitor discovered a human torso in a suitcase at about 10 a.m.

Mike Nadeau, 49, said he'd noticed a smell coming from the suitcase in the past few days.

"Today I noticed flies and when I looked closer I saw maggots," Nadeau said. "I got a friend and we got some cutters because there was a little lock on the suitcase. What I saw when we opened it is hard to describe. There was no head and (the torso) was all grey."

He said he did not believe there were any limbs attached to the torso. Nadeau backed away from suitcase quickly and called police, he said.

Ottawa police say it's too early to tell if the cases are connected but are working with Montreal police.

Imagine Neil's surprise when he gets his own penis in the mail.

So now, they're linking the case to Montreal's.  It will be a interesting investigation.   I wonder who it turned out to be.  I don't know if they'll be able to identify the body without its head, and without some other body parts.

Porn actor wanted

A porn actor is wanted, by the name of Eric Clinton Newman, alias Luka Rocco Magnotta.

This is gonna please CdM:  apparently, he's a cat killer.  A reward of 5000$ has been offered for any info leading to his arrest.  He apparently posted videos on Youtube where he would put a kitten in a plastic bag and suck the air out of it with a vaccum cleaner.

He's homo, too.  Well, bisexual.  There was a rumour of him dating Karla Homolka (but he denied it).

fucking is a good translation for "crisse" in this context.  Fucking psycho would have been better, I think.  But I figure you all got the meaning ;)

There's a snuff video that was uploaded somewhere called "One lunatic, one icepick".  He apparently kills a guy with an icepick.  :x
Text description/dicussion about the video, is it real or not

Well, police now thinks the snuff video is the one where he kills the dismembered guy.

Killing a dismembered guy?  Talking about kicking someone when they are down.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

So, he had sex with his dead victim, and he also ate parts of him.
