On the case...


Can you smell blood on PDP today?! Well, you should, for besides the Queen Jubilee in the UK, the French news is full of the story of Luka Rocco Magnotta, a Canadian porn star who is said to have killed a man, made a video and sent the victim's dismembered body parts in the mail (read more here)! Even worse - after all this - he took a flight to... Paris! Some witnesses say that he stayed in the Batignolles area (a quarter of Paris where I used to live 10 years ago!), others that he is currently in the suburbs... Anyway, I could not help but live dangerously (LOL) and went back to my old neighborhood to take this photo. If tomorrow's PDP photo is of one of my body parts, you'll know why... ;-) In the meantime I'll be singing this... UPDATE: He was caught in Berlin today!

  3. I'm so so sorry that this was what we exported to Paris! We get perfume, cheese, fashion and such great things from France.....you get a phycho. What can I say?

  4. A psycho and a Huguenot, that is.

    But, mon ami, I don't see why you would be in danger unless you, too, are dating this guy. Stay away from ice picks. (I'll bet you found and viewed the video!)

  5. Ack! This sounds unreal. How does someone get to be that screwed up? I hope he's stopped asap.

  6. I'm (ahem) Canadian, and staying not far from Batignolles. There's no way I'm checking out that video. Way too creepy.

    But, it's a good excuse for an appropriately moody photo. Funny how B&W creates such a strong atmosphere. I can hear the ominous organ music in the background.

  7. Ewww... Yep, that's all I've got today.

    As for the photo, it does look rather ominous; black and white can have that effect!

  10. I can't even imagine! Last week in the US a man was shot to death because he was (I don't even know if I can say this) eating a man's face...can you believe it? It was all over the news! What on earth makes people do such things!!!

  13. What won't you do for us, Eric? On the other hand, you've made this poor hotel look (and seem) positively sinister!

  14. @Magdalena "Oh my god! I can't believe what's hapenning with people nowadays!" Don't worry too much, it does not happen that often though...

    @Eli "he was supposed to have been in the UK as well" Really? I did not know.

    @Life, Laughter and Paris "We get perfume, cheese, fashion and such great things from France.....you get a phycho. What can I say?" LOL. Nah... We also get nice tourists ;-)

    @Jeff "But, mon ami, I don't see why you would be in danger unless you, too, are dating this guy. Sta" LOL I know. I just wanted to make it sound more dramatic than it actually is ;-)

    @Petrea " How does someone get to be that screwed up?" Well... It will always be so I'm afraid.

    @Michael "Scary story, scary photo!" LOL. Don't you watch Dexter?!


    @Barbara "I'm (ahem) Canadian, and staying not far from Batignolles. There's no way I'm checking out that video. Way too creepy." LOL Don't worry, he's in jail in Berlin now...

    @Christie "As for the photo, it does look rather ominous; black and white can have that effect!" Yep!

    @Fabrizio "Rocco Magnotta eh? Uhmm if he is Canadian I am from New Zealand" LOL. Well, apparently he used many names...

    @Mrs Vandertramp "It looks like he was just arrested in Berlin." Yes. it did not take very long, did it.

    @Kris "I can't even imagine! Last week in the US a man was shot to death because he was (I don't even know if I can say this) eating a man's face.." Yes, it was all over the news here too. We we see this we think "yeah, well, it's in the US, no wonder..."!

    @Michael "I don't care, I still won't be staying in that hotel!" Well apparently he did not really stay in this particular hotel!

    @PerthDailyPhoto "Thank goodness, horrible to think of someone like this walking around your streets" Yes but the risk of meeting him is very limited...

    @Alexa "On the other hand, you've made this poor hotel look (and seem) positively sinister!" I know! It's not fair...

  15. I read that the government is getting ready to hire 'friends' for Anders Breivik while he's in jail. I'm sure its hard to find someone compatible. I bet Luka and he would have stuff in common and they could hang out! ;)
    Sp-p-p-poooky picture...

  16. If I were going to spend the rest of my life in prison, I would want to go to Paris, too ;)

  17. @Monnica. I think he's going to be sent back to Canada... And believe me you surely DON'T want to be in a French prison...

  18. I heard this psycho was suspected to be in Paris days ago, and then we had the other psycho cannibal here in Miami. Shoot! Scary stuff you only see in bad movies...crazy!!
    Would never cross my mind to watch the video of another person being killed and cut in pieces. How horrific!
