Luka Magnotta: The Butcher of Montreal

from Killer Psyche

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Luka Magnotta, known as the Butcher of Montreal. In the spring of 2012, a shocking video showing the murder of a university student named Jun Lin began circulating across the internet, setting off a chain of events that would horrify an entire nation. What investigators uncovered was a killer unlike any other: a deeply troubled, fame-obsessed man whose lifelong hunger for notoriety would ultimately become both his motive and his undoing. Candice examines how a turbulent childhood, a history of severe mental illness, and an obsessive need to be seen at any cost culminated in one of the most disturbing crimes in Canadian history.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Hit Man iHeartPodcasts In 1983, Paladin Press, a fringe publisher, released a book called Hit Man: A Technical Manual for Independent Contractors. The author, who went by the pen name Rex Feral, offered very specific tips for the aspiring contract killer— where to find employment, how much to charge...and how to get away with murder. Ten years later, Tiffani Horn’s mother, 8-year-old brother, and a close family friend were found murdered. The exhaustive investigation involved multi-state surveillance and wiretaps, but it wasn’t until detectives stumbled upon Hit Man that they suddenly had what they called a blueprint for the murders. Hosted by journalist Jasmyn Morris.
