One day in 2012, a parcel was delivered to Parliament Hill, Canada's highest authority.
The recipient was then Canadian Prime Minister Harper, and a heart was drawn on it with a red pen.
However, the faint blood on the package and the faint stench indicate that this is not a gift of love.
When the police opened it, they found a rotten human foot inside.
The murderer mailed the body of the deceased to the prime minister, such a provocation is simply unheard of in Canadian history, what kind of person would do such a perverted act?
At the request of Prime Minister Harper, the local police immediately launched a detailed investigation into the case.
According to post office records, they learned that it happened around 11 a.m. on May 29, 2012, and that the package was sent from a post office in the Snowden area of Montreal, Quebec.
On the same day that the body was received, outside an apartment building not far from the post office, a cleaner also found a decomposed body in a large box next to a trash can.
After the police retrieved the surveillance video of the community, they found that the box was discarded from the apartment building in the early morning of the 25th.
Subsequently, the management of the apartment identified the person who dragged the box from the surveillance, named Luca. Maniota, he lives in room 208 of this building.
That night, the police were authorized to enter the apartment and make a search. But when they arrived at Room 208, they found that the suspect had already fled.
In addition, the mattress in the room was covered with large blackened blood stains, the same blood stains found on the table, in the bathtub and in the refrigerator.
On the closet of the apartment, the murderer left a line with a red water pen: If you don't like your image, don't look in the mirror, I don't care at all.
Because a large amount of blood was found at the scene, the police preliminarily characterized the apartment as the first scene of the crime.
On the same day, the technician compared the surveillance of the post office with the face of the place and confirmed that the person who sent the package was Luca. Maniota.
Immediately after reporting the discovery, someone called the local police's anti-crime hotline.
The caller said he strongly suspected that the case was related to a video circulating online.
In the video, titled A Madman and an Ice Pick, the killer binds up and dissects an Asian man, even desecrating the body in front of the camera.
However, because the video was deliberately edited by the murderer, the video did not record the process of killing the victim, nor did he show his face.
The source also said that the video of the mutilation was posted four days ago on a website dedicated to the bloody video and has now attracted millions of views.
During this period, technicians restored the background in the video, confirming its authenticity.
Based on this clue, the police traced that on the night of the 24th, the suspected murderer Luca had taken a young Asian man into the apartment building, but the man never came out of the building again.
Under close investigation, the police confirmed a day later that the deceased was Lin Jun, a 32-year-old Chinese student.
Subsequently, they issued a nationwide arrest warrant against the killer.
But on the same day, Luca was confirmed at the border . Maniota has departed for Paris, France.
On May 31, 2012, Interpol officially issued a red notice against Lucca and asked the French police to cooperate in the case.
At this point, a vigorous international pursuit has officially begun.
After receiving the notice, the French police immediately tracked Lucca's mobile phone number, but when they arrived at the hotel, they found that the building was already empty.
In the following days, the French police have also been led by his nose, almost every pursuit is a failure, while the murderer Luca is still busy in Paris for a night.
When the French police finally contacted his girlfriend that night, they told them that they had just put Luca on a bus to Berlin, Germany, in the morning.
While regretting that the murderer was not caught, the French police could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, and this hot potato was finally thrown.
In contrast, the German police are much more efficient.
Less than a day after Lucca settled in Berlin, a police car was stopped on the street to report his whereabouts.
A few minutes later, heavily armed police arrested Luca at an Internet café. And he was enjoying the news about his wanted on the Internet.
Later, police learned from doctors that Luca was a man who had a history of mental illness for more than a decade.
Therefore, many of his behaviors cannot be guessed by ordinary people's thinking, and no one can imagine what kind of move he will make next.
He once posted a video online to tell the world that he and the Canadian femme fatale Karakhmula were a couple. Carla, on the other hand, is a murderous maniac who terrifies Canadian girls.
She and her husband, known as the heroes of serial killers, raped and sexually abused dozens of teenage girls together, and murdered three people, including Kara's own sister.
In addition to rubbing hot spots, Carla is also addicted to plastic surgery, and he has always fantasized about being an Internet celebrity.
But 99% of his photos on the Internet are P, and many photos showing off his wealth are also made by changing his face after stealing pictures, and because his technology is particularly poor, he is often recognized.
Many people on the Internet scoffed at his behavior, so this product simply got more than 70 Facebook accounts, more than 20 personal homepages, more than 50 blog accounts, one person playing multiple roles, using crowd tactics to scare netizens back and forth.
But there are too many such people on the Internet, and such a counterattack did not attract much attention, and in the end he was drowned in the "I want to be red" Internet army.
So, unwilling to be ordinary, he did something on the Internet that challenged people's bottom line - abusing cats.
In 2010, he uploaded a video online. In the video, he put the two kittens in a vacuum compression bag, then connected a vacuum cleaner to drain the air inside, and watched the two kittens struggle to death.
This brutal video quickly attracted the attention of an American veteran named Ryan.
This veteran of the war, although he has seen all kinds of bloody scenes, he will never accept the act of killing life just for fun.
In anger, he began to search the Internet for the murderer behind the cat abuse video.
The Internet tracking of Luca was originally initiated by the American veteran. At this time, there were still 18 months before Lin Jun was killed.
Like the video that killed Lin Jun, the cunning Luca was very careful in this cat-abusing video and never showed his face.
In desperation, Ryan had to start investigating from the background of the video and the two kittens.
He first used a picture software to identify the most similar tens of thousands of photos of cats from countless photos of cats on the Internet.
From tens of thousands of photos with cats, a second manual screening is carried out to find the most real one, which can be imagined how huge the project is.
After a few weeks, Ryan, who was about to look cross-eyed, finally fished out the needle in the vast sea.
Ryan found an image online, and although the portrait in this image was blurred, the two cats looked exactly the same.
After the original picture was restored, Luca. Maniota's true face also appeared in front of Ryan.
Since the murderer's full face has been found, the next step must be human flesh him.
But this job is not as simple as Ryan thinks, not that there is too little information about the murderer, but too much.
Luca's information on the Internet is too much and mixed, and it is really difficult to find the real information that is not even 1% from these messy background pictures.
In desperation, Ryan had to turn to various netizens, hoping that a superior person would appear to assist the scum of human flesh.
To this end, he also set up a special page on Facebook, putting all the information he had about Luca, and accompanied by a tragic cat abuse map.
A year later, the page had grown to more than 4,000 people from different countries around the world.
After months of hard work, they finally locked on the most authentic of all the pictures.
Later, a computer expert determined through technical means that the shooting location of this picture was Starbucks in Toronto's Eaton Mall.
But just when they finally persuaded the Toronto Police Department to investigate, they were told that Luca. Maniota has long since moved away.
Due to the lack of substantial evidence, the Toronto police abandoned the investigation of the case.
Not long after, two videos of cat abuse appeared on the Internet again, one was a kitten drowned alive, and the other was a kitten fed to a python.
In both videos, the figure of the young man who resembles Luca appears.
At the same time, the Sun reporter who reported on the cat abuse video also received a report email.
The email said: The guy you're looking for is in London, and his name is Luca. Maniota.
So, the reporter went to interview Luca according to the address in the email, but the other party calmly denied that he was a cat sadist and said that he was framed.
Immediately afterwards, a threatening letter was received in the email address of the newspaper reporter.
The letter reads: "Seeing how hard you people have gone to great lengths to find evidence, but have found nothing, I will always be the winner."
I'll keep making those films, and next time I'll use people as the protagonists, not those kittens. ”
The newspaper immediately forwarded the email to Scotland Yard, and the London Police took the matter very seriously.
They searched for the Internet café where the email was sent, but could not confirm whether the email was from Luca himself.
In desperation, they had to put this person on the list of high-risk people and asked the border to pay strict attention when he left and left the country.
Subsequently, veteran Ryan and his friends also made a summary video of all the evidence about Luca's cat abuse and posted it online to remind people to be wary of this cold-blooded pervert.
At the same time, Luca also opened his counterattack. He first used multiple trumpets to mingle among the volunteers who were chasing him, staging a real undercover operation.
After knowing his opponent, he began to oppose these trackers of human flesh.
In February 2012, the home phone number and address of one of the main trackers were maliciously posted on a website for renting a house at a very low price.
His home phone was blown up for days, and it was simply annoying.
At the same time, veteran Ryan's personal information also mysteriously appeared on a dating website.
A few days later, trackers found some of Lucca's small IPs, concentrated in Montreal, Canada,
And he himself uploaded a background photo with a North American French style on the Internet.
The unique shape of the street lamp in the photo attracted the attention of the trackers.
Then, based on this clue, the trackers began to conduct a further search of Luca Xing, hoping to lock down his residence in Montmuse.
They used Google Street View to bring up Street View images of each area, compared the street lamp styles everywhere, and finally targeted the location of this photo on Mount Royal in Montreal.
Trackers reported the discovery to Montreal police. But the response was no different from before.
Police said that because they could not confirm the authenticity of the information provided by the tracker, they would need to complete the evidence collection before they could investigate the case. Then there was no reply.
Netizens were unwilling to give up, and they contacted many netizens in Montreal, hoping that someone could contact the local councillor and apply to the court for a search warrant against Lucca.
Although after a few weeks, a lawmaker was finally willing to help, but his request was again rejected by the court due to insufficient evidence.
In the end, everyone kept circulating warnings against Luca on the Internet, reminding people not to give small animals to him for adoption.
However, at this time, the kind people did not expect that the murderer had set his sights beyond the small animals.
In early May 2012, two weeks before the crime, trackers noticed that Luca had moved online again.
He used several trumpets at the same time to post on different video sites to create a buzz for himself.
In the video, he told netizens that he will upload a very interesting video soon and invited netizens to continue to pay attention.
In the days that followed, such information grew.
The trackers compiled the information into reports and sent them to Montreal police and animal protection groups, but always received any response.
On May 24, the day Lin Jun was killed, someone retweeted a post from another website on the Facebook page that tracked Luca.
The wording of this post is very bizarre, in addition to warning the world that Luca is a very dangerous pervert, it also describes him as charming and beautiful.
But the person who wrote the post, instead of saying that Luca was an animal sadist, directly called him a pathological psychopath.
Ryan, a veteran, had an intuition that it was most likely the killer himself. But he never knew why the murderer did this.
It seems that the murderer tried to prove Ryan's conjecture, and a few minutes later, a posing photo of a man holding an ice pick was sent to his mailbox.
This photo, no matter how it looks, looks like a trailer of the crime sent to him by the murderer.
So, Ryan quickly called the international call to the Montreal City Police Department to report the situation. But the police officer who connected the line did not understand this.
She frequently questioned Ryan how she could verify the authenticity of the photo, but Ryan could not explain more.
The only evidence he had was the photo of a suspected killer warning from the killer, but it failed to attract the attention of the police.
He had to hang up the phone silently and say no more.
The blind spot of the law, the cunning of the murderer, and the indifference of the police, he has no choice, he can only continue to pay attention to Luca's next move.
I only hoped that the murderer would leave enough flaws this time for people to catch him smoothly, but after that, he never moved again.
At this time, Lin Jun, an international student from China, sent the last photo to his mother in China on his mobile phone.
The photo was taken outside the window of his home, and the early summer in Canada is peaceful and beautiful, and his heart may be as calm and peaceful as this photo.
No one expected that just a few hours later, his young life would come to an end in this land.
For a long time after this incident, many netizens fell into more or less self-blame.
They thought guiltily, "Why couldn't we have prevented this from happening in the first place?"
Is it that we have not broadened the scope of the warning, so that the murderer has an opportunity?
And most importantly, did our crazy human flesh bring great psychological pressure to the murderer, thus causing the incident to get out of control? ”
All these questions were finally answered in court.
Experts point out that it is actually a matter of time before the murderer Luca can reach the point of killing.
Unless he is put in jail and the possibility of his crime is cut off, he will do the same thing regardless of human flesh or not.
Later, Lin Jun was buried in the Monterra Cemetery in Monterría.
Because his body was destroyed by the killer and most of it was still decomposed, the police finally had to decide to cremate him.
This also led to Lin's father and Lin's mother, who came from China, never seeing their son in the end.
At that time, when Lin's father and mother chose not to take their son to his roots, but to bury him in Canada, it also caused a huge controversy on the Internet.
Netizens also triggered a series of speculations on this matter.
Some believe that the couple wanted to use their son's tragedy to blackmail the Canadian government; Others believe that they want to immigrate indirectly by keeping a vigil for their sons, etc., etc.
And this undoubtedly made the second elder, who was already very sad, suffer from very great public opinion pressure at the same time.
But it turns out that this pair of simple and kind old people really does not have so many crooked thoughts. It was only after they complied with their son's wish that they had to give up taking him home.
As a closeted gay, Lin Jun has always dreamed of living in a tolerant and free place for homosexuality.
He hopes to spend the rest of his life boldly pursuing the happiness he wants, rather than living in an environment where he will be scorned by those around him at any time.
This is why he resolutely chose to go abroad after graduating from university.
It's a pity that his dream was ruthlessly shattered by a perverted killer, and the cruel video of his body being decomposed was also posted on the Internet, and people are still searching and watching it to this day.
At this point, we only hope that the murderer's subduing law can allow Lin Jun's spirit in heaven to rest in peace, and we also hope that the Lin family's parents can get out of the grief of losing their son as soon as possible.
