Police arrest suspect in York University student murder

[5hummer]

Nice to see I'm on your mind a lot and got under your skin

That sounded really creepy ....

Why is it contradictory? I would assume he's Buddhist.

Sure, it's a loophole for the officially atheist since Buddhism is more like a philosophy than monolithic religion the Pinko despised. No?

Pinko? Huh? I think you forgot about the 6 October 1976 coup.

Have you ever been to China? Practically everyone there is buddhist. Especially in the "communist" party.

CTV hints at a possible 1st-degree murder charge: http://ottawa.ctv.ca/servlet/an/loc...brian-dickson-110421/20110421/?hub=OttawaHome

A Toronto man accused of killing a student last seen alive in a struggle on a webcam made his first court appearance Thursday.

Brian Dickson was arrested and charged with first-degree murder on Wednesday.

Wearing a white shirt and jeans during his brief appearance in court on Thursday, the 29-year-old was remanded in custody until April 26.

Dickson's court appearance was almost a week after 23-year-old Qian Liu was found dead in her basement apartment, naked from the waist down at 27 Aldwinckle Hts., near York University.

Besides being a global politics student at York University, Dickson was active with several extra-curricular activities. He was an executive assistant at the Atlantic Council of Canada, a group founded to promote NATO.

Dickson was also the co-founder of the York Model NATO Organization.

Dickson's profile on the Atlantic Council of Canada website also described him as a running instructor and someone who "continually strives to get his parents to eat healthier food – a challenge."

He planned at one point to write his Law School Admission Test (LSAT), another profile on the ACC website said.

As part of his membership as a delegate on the York Model UN, he attended conferences in both the United States and Canada.

He was also elected as vice-president of the Undergraduate Political Science Council at McLaughlin College with the York Federation of Students.

Dickson was also involved with a Pakistani aid agency called Development in Literacy, which helps rural people in that country.

Following the court appearance, police retracted a previous request for media not to publish a photo of the man they charged in Liu's death.

Dave Perry, a former Toronto police homicide detective, told CTV's Canada AM that police may have made the request to not publish the image because it could have compromised the case.

Perry said that although he didn't want to speculate on the investigation, a first-degree murder charge means that police believe there was forethought.

In an exclusive interview CTV News conducted in China earlier this week, Liu's boyfriend, who asked to keep his identity concealed, said he witnessed somebody walk into her room and and try to hug Liu before assaulting her.

Perry said the boyfriend's account has likely helped detectives with their investigation.

"At least it gave police some kind of information right from the start," he said. "Whenever you look at any investigation you are looking for quick breaks and early information in order to hopefully accelerate things to the point where you can make a quick arrest. It would appear that's what happened on this one."

Police are waiting the results of toxicology tests after an autopsy failed to show the cause of Liu's death.

Meanwhile, a student organization at York will be hosting a forum on Thursday to discuss ways to improve safety on campus

Nope but any additional knowledge on this ideologue?

LMAO, not jumping up for joy to their numerous brand new infrastructures money could spend when the caliber of those folks, those who were born after 1976 in particular are questionable in terms of ethics and mindset.

BTW, I am surprised you suggest everyone there is Buddhist. If this is what you try to convince us, how would you explain this? Bogus??

What Chinese restaurants are you talking about? Chinese take out for the GwaiLo? Chinese restaurants catering to the Taiwanese and Cantonese? Or Chinese restaurants with simplified characters?

The Chinese government certainly cracks down on anyone who sets up an organization outside of its control, but is quite content with people worshiping whatever god they like, provided they do so through government affiliated religious organizations. That may be a disagreeable policy, but it is wholly consistent with party members being buddhist.

The Chinese government runs lots and lots of buddhist temples in China, and they are all fairly well attended.

And yes practically everyone there is buddhist. Not everyone. But almost everyone. In a country of a few billion the exceptions to the rule are still a sizeable number of people.

Is Falun Gong an offshoot from Buddhism?

BTW, I am told those Communist party members are among the most superstitious folks over there. Quite an irony when the Cultural Revolution was supposed to dismantle thousand years old "Nonsense" like this. No?

Is it me? Or, is the media outlets hounding the parents of the victim. I see the parents' pictures on the web and front page print news everywhere! Are they being hounded?

 

[Phil C. McNasty]

This whole story is weird. Here you have a clean-cut guy who doesnt fit the usual profile of a killer, who also probably knew the victim in some capacity. He then (allegedly) killed her, stripped her from the waist down, but didnt rape her according to cops.

Strange!!!

Perhaps increase circulation/ratings as the motivation, due to the fact that the victim's father is a Communist, while the clean-cut, alleged killer is not a Chinese, like Cecilia Zhang murder case. No?

the cops put a media ban on his picture untill today...guess the media really liked the story and had to plaster someone's picture, in order to sell their newpapers..too bad the tastless dicks had to put up the one of the victim twice, and the parents....but i'll put money down the killer's photo will be on the front page of the Star and Sun(well maybe the Sun, unless a black person does something wrong tonight)

I agree, but why would he strip the girl from the waist down, it makes absolutely no sense

Hinz did any Asian females every make you break down and shatter your illusions of love? You seen to be anti-Asian, please elaborate.

What illusions of love are you suggesting??

BTW, I am not anti-Asian. I am against those who hype and sensationalize the so called "Asians virtue and uniqueness". The World is flat and their mindsets are not much different from the West nowadays. No?

Does a "killer" have to make any sense?

Maybe the killer "gets off" strictly on the nudity or the kill?
The killer may've been distracted or thought he was discovered and left before he can do the deed?
Killer couldn't perform under-pressure?

aside from Don Draper, i'm sure most see asians as normal humans who do right and wrong..just like their white cousins...i mean aren't we all realted (white , black, asian)to one smart monkey family anyways?..i agree with locomotil..some asian chick must have really taken you for a ride...
