Luka Magnotta: Anna Yourkin, Luka Magnotta's Mom: Where Is She Today?

Anna Yourkin, the mother of convicted killer Luka Magnotta, released a memoir on her son’s notoriety in 2018.

Yourkin released her memoir, My Son the Killer: The Untold Story of Luka Magnotta & 1 Lunatic 1 Ice Pick, with the help of co-writer Brian Whitney, on November 6, 2018.

According to Newman’s testimony at Magnotta’s trial, Yourkin left school in order to raise her and Newman’s children.

A psychiatrist at Magnotta’s trial disagreed with the notion of Lopez being a real person, and instead referenced Lopez as a voice in Magnotta’s head.

Magnotta’s parents were only teenagers when they had him; Yourkin was 16 years old, and his father, Donald Newman, was 17 years old.
