'Cannibal' Luka Magnotta Attracts Obsessed Female Fans - ABC News

"I spend nearly half the day reading, thinking, or writing about him," a fan using the Facebook handle Luka Magnotta Supporter, but who identified herself as an 18-year-old student from the U.K. named Soph, told ABC News. "I worry for him, so I always have to keep myself updated about him. I've started having dreams about him. He is a beautiful man, but it isn't that. I'm attracted with who is inside of him. I'll support him no matter what."

For Lexa, a 30-year-old married mother of two, who runs the blog Luka Magnotta Obsession, her infatuation with the accused cannibal started by following news stories about his arrest.

Just the sick "bad boy" attraction a lot of sick females have magnified many times over.

This is insane what he has done!
But it's not uncommon that people are curios about the wrong and forbidden.

An example is the danish american Peter Lundin who killed his mother and later his lover and two children:
Killers Biography - Mass murders and serial killers

Afterwards in jail all danish girls start to write him love letters. Some years ago he got married in jail.. That's sick, but that's life

  Call me pedantic, but we don't know what he's done, yet: there hasn't been a trial. (Hope you're not intending to be on the jury, if you've already decided! I suppose not, though, if you're in Denmark ...).
  
  "Just saying".
  
  Thanks

  Call me literal, but what he has or has not done won't be changed by any trial. Just sayin.
  
  I know exactly what you mean though.

  What he's done is on a video publicly displayed on Internet and the apartment he used to live in soaked with the victim's blood. We don't know full details of what he's done, but they victim's family lost a son in a horrific way.

If they saying "you are what you eat" is true, then this cannibal is more of a man than you or I. I'm just a cow, and donuts.
