When I snipped newsleuth's post, I snipped too much so it didn't quote correctly. Newsleuth is the one who saw something strange. I'm curious too.
WARNING, GETS GRAPHIC BELOW:
Everything and yet maybe nothing. Here are my initial impressions. The victim in the initial scene looks too lean, too small... almost like Magnotta himself. Someone posted a picture of Lin Jun's real jock profile of (grimly) only his torso - he looks wider no? True this may have been years ago but your whole frame would not necessarily change? Also, later on in the video (I've seen only stills) the victims backside looks larger than I expected... certainly larger than this skinny-mini rolling around on the bed initially.
Now why is the victim's entire head covered? What is the purpose other than to block his face from the audience? If he's drugged, he's drugged. If he's not gagged his screams will still be heard underneath this bizarre, impromptu blindfold, so why not just gag and blindfold him - and if drugged why even blindfold him at all? Just gag him... if even that was necessary...
We really have to ask - why cover the ENTIRE face until the slit throat reveal? What is the true purpose?
2ndly, when the victim is being stabbed he is clearly already dead. Why? What purpose does this serve? The purpose of a SNUFF video is to see a death live on camera... what we are seeing a a posthumous mutilation on camera - this is very different.
This leads me to believe the following: the death happened somewhere else in the apartment. If you look at the footage in that GLOBAL VIDEO link I posted it gives us a unique (albeit brief tour) of the apartment. A couch is located left of the bed with it's back to the bed, a small bureau unit (likely where the camera was placed) faces the bed - some other details can be seen, sparse maybe not worth mentioning but perhaps important... take a look at the link I posted previously (sorry cannot go back and get it now, still live though)
I suspect Magnotta couldn't bring himself to kill this guy with a knife/icepick while alive. He gave him (IMO) a drug overdose and he either died somewhere else in the apartment or tied up on that bed - but of the overdose (toxicology report is something I'm dying to see). I just can't see Magnotta giving up the chance to capture slitting the victim's live throat on camera... or perhaps he could because HE COULDN'T GO THROUGH WITH IT.
***Other thought: Or yet... maybe he could. Maybe he botched it. Maybe he didn't film it just right, the angle was off... it didn't fit his vision, so he edited it out. I don't even know if the version the police found will contain this if he really hated it. Maybe that's why he went so far with the body humiliations? He had to make up for botching the kill...?***
Once Lin Jun was dead as awful as it is, Magnotta resigned himself to the fact that he was working with meat. The worst part was over. He had all the time needed to lay down extra blankets on the bed, drag the body into the bathroom or wherever to let it bleed out/begin dismembering it (he could have easily done this by putting it on a blanket or slippery tarp - I'm a small man and I move my heavy *advertiser censored* air conditioner around every year by myself like this) the video shows us only what he wants us to see - the basic editing illusion he wanted to create.
Now, was there a 2nd person? If there was, I suspect it was Magnotta in the early frames tied up and this 2nd perp standing over him, giving the film a bit of an intro - remember if Lin Jun died of a drug overdose before filming, he would never get to film the most important part of the video - the part where we see him ALIVE! Again, mutilation of a dead body is one thing but a true snuff shows the death.
In closing, something went wrong - the victim died too soon in Magnotta's eyes or the kill was botched or he couldn't go through with it but he still needed that ALIVE one moment DEAD the next aspect.
In theory and this is stretching. He could have killed Lin Jun via drug overdose, hid the body in the bathtub - called someone else over, an old friend a John, wtv - recorded the initial part of the video which is what we see before the stabbing and then dressed the body back up on the bed the same way.
Some of this is far fetched, some of it I think is very likely but the real question everyone should be asking is - why hide the victim's complete face off the top? Why?
P.S. What are these stills everyone is talking about? Stills of body parts in the fridge / head in the bathtub? I'm so sorry to ask but where did you see these and are they online? Do we have proof the body was cut up in the bathtub? For some reason I can bring myself to see stills before I can bring myself to see video. Thank you.
EDIT: One other VERY important thing I forgot to mention was how POORLY Lin appears to be bound in the video. Another reason why I think it might be a recreation. I suppose if he was badly drugged this was of no concern but I suspect the reason why he was bound (simulated?) while being stabbed by an unknown perp with an icepick was to simulate the famous, initial death scene in Basic Instinct. I think the ropes are entirely for show.
