I just started watching this, it's a three-part true crime documentary series based around the killings of Luka Magnotta.
I don't want to say too much in case people aren't familiar with it (I know it's true crime but maybe some want to go in blind). Essentially it has interviews with online vigilantes who came together after a video of a man killing two cats appeared online in 2010. They formed a group to try and discover the man's identity but as they get closer to him it gets more and more disturbing. |

I've only watched episode 1 so far but it's incredibly well-made.

No nothing. They tell you what happens and you hear noises (but not cries of pain of any animals) but it is not shown.

...I watched this...I hadn’t known about the story, about his existence...why did people keep watching his vids, I don’t understand...it felt like he had his ‘audience’...and if he hadn’t, would he still have done it..?...it’s all so horrendous, it was hard to process...Jun Lin and his poor, poor family......

I think they watched because it was so shocking, people loved being shocked by things back then. I watched things in 2010 that I regret seeing too. I was 17 and everyone else was doing it. It was just "the thing" at the time. You start off seeing something strange or weird, then someone sends you something worse and then it escalates until you're watching videos like that. I never went that far, I didn't watch anything involving gore/death but I know people who did and it really affected them.

Just watched the first episode and I literally felt a shiver run down my spine when the clip was uploaded of him walking through Dianna's workplace (not sure how you spell her name, but the iconic queen with the Bowie stripe on a pug's face tattoo).

...but as the group started to spiral with thousands and thousands of members...why did they never contact the police..?...the police would have had access to methods that they didn’t have...the police may not have acted but wasn’t it worth a try...?...it’s like they became addicted to the ‘game’ of it...(..apart from the obvious...)...there was so much about this that I found disturbing...

...ahhhh, I must have missed that in the beginning, that they had contacted the police...I found so much about this that was terrifying...like when the group had targeted the wrong person..and he then took his own life.....

There’s not much the police could’ve done with no a actual murder victim, and evidence that only the group had compiled. In their eyes, that evidence is unreliable.

...but their involvement may have stopped the Jamesey guy from being targeted ...they may have been able to verify that he was a troll who had mental issues, but not the guy that they thought...and that could have prevented his suicide...possibly...

...I guess as she said...no one knows..(..or ever will know..)..whether he killed himself because of the ‘witch hunt’ against him...whether that directly caused a trigger...

I'm only near the end of the first episode but this Luca Magnotta thing seriously reminds me of that BradTheLadLong creep that would create fake accounts to get himself in tv lineup rumours...

Does this actually show the video of him and the cats? Because I really want to watch this but if that's shown I can't. It'll upset me.

They show parts of the video and sound but they don’t actually air the killings. They show him petting the cats etc but no violence. And they show the cats corpses once but briefly.
