At trial, Magnotta pleaded not guilty, claiming he was in a psychotic state at the time of the murder and was not criminally responsible. He did not dispute that he killed Jun.
At his trial, five mental health experts testified that he had borderline personality disorder or borderline traits.
Last December, a 12-member jury found him guilty of murdering Jun.
Before the grisly murder, Magnotta was suspected of killing kittens and posting videos of their deaths online, an animal rights group told CBC's the fifth estate.
The videos showed someone feeding a kitten to a python, drowning a kitten in a bathtub, and placing two kittens in a plastic bag and vacuuming the air out.
Magnotta is expected to be released in 2037, his bio states. He's currently serving a mandatory 25-year life sentence for murder and is not eligible for parole.

Why is he allowed any privileges in prison? Isn't internet access a privilege in prison? Or is it considered some sort of civil right in Canada? I don't understand.
Harlow Cuadra (the guy who, along with his bf Joe Kerekes, drugged then slit the throat of Bryan Kocis then ransacked his place, stole a bunch of his things, and set the place on fire, just so they could get Brent Corrigan out of his contract with Cobra - in case you forgot ) over Luka...at least if he still looks this way lol
That case had zero to do with Luka.
By the way, Kocis was supposedly a major prick. Also, Corrigan pulled a sick stunt by making a movie called "Velvet Mafia" which is a parody of that murder. Corrigan used to do a lot of drugs and made very bad decisions. He made a LOT of money, and blew every penny.
I am extremely familiar with this case. One fascinating thing is that the reason almost that haters hate Magnotta is not because of the murder, but because of the kittens. Nobody gives a damn about that Chinese guy.
Luka was framed by Nina Arsenault. He will be released once some bureaucratic nonsense is taken care of. As for the kitten videos, they are all doctored poorly to look like Luka. The images of Luka in those videos were pulled from 12 year old images of Luka posted on the internet. There is no question about that - which is why the kitten videos were ignored in the trial. The 12 year old photos are a 100% match for the images in the kitten videos. Luka pled not guilty when arraigned, not guilty at the pre-trial, and not guilty at the trial. At the trial, his fraudulent attorney forced Luka to plead insanity. Luka did not agree to that plea until 20 months after the murder. He was told that was the only way he could avoid life in prison. At the trial, all 5 defense psychiatrists agreed that Luka was insane. It was expected that Luka would get an Not Criminally Responsible verdict (insanity), and the jury deliberated for 8 days - which is an extremely long time for a murder case (by the time a murder trial is over, the jury has almost always made their mind up already). Since ALL the psychiatrists said Luka was NCR, everybody assumed there would be an NCR verdict.. but at the very last possible moment, in an astonishing reversal, Luka's own attorney told the jury to IGNORE the psychiatrists! This left the jury with no other option other than to throw out the NCR verdict and go for 1st degree murder!
You will be hearing a lot about this case in 2016, so feel enlightened to get a sneak preview.
Inmates have zero internet access. That ad was a fake posted by a fellow inmate trying to make some money by selling postcards.

This animal should never be released from prison. He should not be allowed to post solicitations for boyfriends on the internet. He should be cell mates with a large, muscular, psychopathic Jamaican drug lord prison pimp who keeps his dance card full of other Jamaican war daddies every day.
The crime he was convicted of is heinous but the details of his activities prior to that heinous act are so Dahmer-esque it makes me want to do very bad things to him. The monster posted video of what he did to some kittens:

Just saw a recent article from Montreal newspaper that says he's actually enjoying prison! lots of food (hopefully, not other prisoners), even chocolates, and he's able to wear Versace clothes in prison! He says it's like living in a college dorm! Not sure how much of that, if anything, is true, but haven't seen anything to contradict the relaxed atmosphere in Canadian prisons, which doesn't make sense! Prisons SHOULD BE unpleasant places to be, not country clubs or college dorms!
Btw, in searching for this info, I found out that the video he made of the murder is actually still available! ~X(~X(
