Police have identified the woman whose dismembered remains were found in a garbage bin in Kitchener, Ont., on Saturday morning.
Waterloo Regional Police said Tuesday that the victim has been identified as Kelsey Louise Felker, 24, of Kitchener.
Police made the grisly discovery after citizens found what they suspected were human remains.
Police wouldn't say Sunday whether a weapon was found at the scene, confirming only that the body was wearing a black, short sleeved T-shirt with the words "Forget Princess I want to be a Vampire" on the front.
Police received information from the public about the black T-shirt Felker was wearing and said it was "an important factor" in ...

I find this whole 'Canadian murderers hacking up bodies' trend more than a little disturbing.

Not to mention a friend of mine lives in that building and I know exactly where the dumpster is situated because I parked near it 3 weeks ago. And it is near but not in the downtown area nor is it located in a seedy area.

Real evil can happen anywhere. Comforting thought, no?

Who knows what happened to her to fuel her addiction but that doesn't just "happen" in a vacuum. I am thinking recent pictures would have shown how ravished the drugs and her lifestyle had made her.

So this is just so horrendous on so many levels.

As for evil I don't even know anymore what I think of the concept. Truly I struggle with that.

I think it's incredibly sad that anyone has to hide the person who was murdered in such a way, if indeed that is what they are doing. It shouldn't matter if the victim is a member of high society or homeless, no one should ever have to die and be so horribly mutilated in that way. No one.

But society for the most part seems to care just a little bit less depending on who the victim is. Just look at what Picton got away with for so long.

I think you recognize the evil that exists everywhere, inside of all of us and you drag it kicking and screaming out into the harsh light of day. But evil is, at minimum, unpleasant so no one likes to do that. It's left in the dark corners of society and the human psyche and that's where it flourishes.
