The head of Luka Rocco Magnotta's former lover may finally have been recovered. Following a tip, police discovered an apparent human head in a Montreal park near Magnotta's apartment yesterday, the AP reports. Testing will help determine whether the head belonged to Jun Lin, a Chinese student allegedly killed and dismembered by Canadian porn actor Magnotta, and whether it's actually even a body part, a police rep said, according to the Toronto Star. Lin's head is the only remaining body part unaccounted for. Magnotta was extradited from Germany to Canada earlier this month. (More Luka Rocco Magnotta stories.)
