MONTREAL—Accused murderer Luka Rocco Magnotta’s lawyer expressed concern for his client’s well being in prison during a court appearance Thursday afternoon, but did not ask the judge for a psychiatric evaluation. At the request of the defence, the Toronto-born Magnotta appeared in court Thursday afternoon, contrary to what had been planned during his last appearance by video link. The family of Jun Lin, his alleged victim, was also present at the courthouse to meet with prosecutors and watch the court appearance, live, from a separate location. Magnotta sat cross legged in the glassed-in prisoner’s box, wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and dark pants. He looked much younger than his 29 years. The Crown and defence set a date for the preliminary hearing, in March 2013. Luc Leclair, a Toronto-based lawyer who is leading the case, told the judge he had reservations about the prison where Magnotta is being held. “I want to express my concern for his physical well being and mental well being,” Leclair said. He asked the judge to ensure Magnotta is looked after “medically.” Magnotta is being held in isolation at the Rivière-des-Prairies detention centre in Montreal. At a brief court appearance by video link last Tuesday, another Magnotta lawyer, Pierre Panaccio, indicated that the defence might ask for a psychiatric evaluation. Leclair and Panaccio declined to answer reporters’ questions as to why the demand was not made. A psychiatric evaluation could seek to determine, according to the Criminal Code, a suspect’s criminal responsibility. Magnotta, who changed his name from Eric Clinton Newman 更多：https://www.bmcx.com/ , faces five charges, including first-degree murder, indignity to a corpse, publishing obscene material, obscene use of the postal system, and threatening Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Magnotta is accused of killing and dismembering 33-year-old Lin in Montreal. Lin, a Chinese national and immigrant, also known as Justin, was studying computer science at Concordia University. Police also believe Magnotta sent body parts to political parties in Ottawa and schools in Vancouver. Police believe Magnotta filmed the killing and posted the video to the Internet. The video in question also appears to depict cannibalism and sexual defiling of the body. Prosecutors emphasized the investigation is ongoing. Notably, police have not recovered Lin’s head. A spokesperson for the Crown said prosecutors met with Lin’s family. It’s been a sensitive subject for police and prosecutors, who spoke of the family Tuesday. “It’s the beginning of a very long one year or two years and we will try to help them through this,” Crown prosecutor Hélène Di Salvo said on Tuesday. “My colleague and I want them to believe in our justice system and we will do our best to reassure them that we will work very hard in this case.” Police have not revealed the exact nature of Lin’s relationship with Magnotta before the murder, or whether it was more than just sexual. Magnotta was arrested in Berlin June 4 after a 10-day global manhunt. He was recognized by an employee at an Internet café, where he’d been reading about himself on the web. Magnotta flew to Paris on May 26. Several days later, after the discovery of several body parts, both in Montreal and Ottawa, an international warrant was issued for Magnotta. Police apparently picked up his trail in Paris, but by then he’d already made his way to Germany. His repatriation took place under high security. He arrived in Montreal last Monday aboard a Canadian Forces CC-150 Polaris jet and was escorted by six Montreal police, among others.
