Skeletal remains found in planters by Sharon Kirkey @nationalpost

A man who describes himself as a shy and helpless romantic at heart, a former mall Santa Claus, is now an accused serial killer who, Toronto police allege, buried the skeletal remains of his victims’ dismembered bodies in the bottom of outdoor planters and flower pots. [...] Police are now working through McArthur’s client list, scouring some 30 properties across the city with every expectation more body parts will be found. Other planters have been seized, while two sites are being excavated where people might be buried. Police wouldn’t divulge the locations. [...] In a case experts said has eerie and grisly echoes of notorious gay serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer, who raped, murdered and dismembered 17 boys and men, McArthur was arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder on Jan. 18 in the deaths of Selim Esen, 44, and Andrew Kinsman, 49.
