The owner of a graphic website that showcases grisly videos saysthat his site should be praised for helping identify Luka RoccoMagnotta, who is alleged to be in a video believed to depict thestabbing and dismemberment of a man. In an email exchange with CBC News, Edmonton-based Mark Marek,owner of Best Gore website, said members of his site were able toidentify Magnotta days before the discovery of the torso inMontreal and a foot at the Conservative Party of Canadaheadquarters in Ottawa. A hand was also found at a Canada Postterminal that was addressed to the Liberal Party of Canadaheadquarters. Magnotta, 29, is wanted in connection with the discovery of thosebody parts and the video. "People should be grateful and thank [the] great job Best Gore didto ensure everyone's safety," Marek said. "Because the video was made public, Best Gore community was able toidentify the [suspect] and report it." Marek said he doesn't believe the 10 minute video was sent tohim by Magnotta. "I do not actually run background checks on my contributor so Ican t say that for sure. By the sound of it, I doubt it wasMagnotta, but as I said, I neither have the capabilities norinterest in verifying identities of contributors," he said. "Many would not contribute if they had no option to remainanonymous. But I'm 99 per cent sure it was not Magnotta. No, thetone in which it was sent to me no, it just wasn t him." Marek said the video was forwarded to him on May 25 and posted onthe same day. He said it is not known when it was filmed. He said police have not yet contacted him. Marek described the site as the "largest reality news website" onthe internet that plays an important role in informing people "whatmay lurk in their neighbourhoods." "Myself and other Best Gore members are people who don't live withrose tinted sunglasses permanently mounted on our faces. We see thereal nature of men on a daily basis so this video was just anotherexample of what we know people are capable of." He dismissed critics of the site, saying that they feel "threatenedwhen their rose colored world is exposed for not being this cosywarm place they force themselves to believe it is." He said the website has actually contributed to making saferneighbourhoods. "There are literally thousands of people who can attest to that andconfirm that the breaking point was their exposure to content onBest Gore. Best Gore exposes the real threats the drunk drivers,the reckless drivers, the animal abusers, etc - they are the oneswho need to be regulated, not websites that expose them." But Toronto-based internet law expert Gil Zvulony told CBC Newsthat although he hasn't seen the video, it falls under the CriminalCode's obscenity laws. 'It's a crime to publish that," he said. Zvulony said he doesn't believe the video would be covered by the"public good" defence. "The question is, posting it online, does that really further thepublic good. Couldn't they have simply notified the police?". The e-commerce company in China offers quality products such as Cold Drawn Steel Wire Manufacturer , China Tyre Bead Wire, and more.
