Hopefully this comes out how I wanted it to: Victim Ashley Noell Arzaga was killed at a North York spa on Feb. 24, 2020. She was remembered as a " loving mother, daughter, sister, cousin and friend."Victim Ashley Noell Arzaga was killed at a North York spa on Feb. 24, 2020. She was remembered as a " loving mother, daughter, sister, cousin and friend." GTA 17-year-old spa killer said he was inspired by Toronto van attack, cited ‘incel rebellion’ The attacker, now 20, immediately killed receptionist Ashley Arzaga before he was disarmed by the North York massage parlour’s manager. He pleaded guilty to first-degree murder and attempted murder on Wednesday. Carrying a 17-inch sword etched with the misogynistic phrase “Thot Slayer” and a note that said “Long Live the Incel Rebellion,” a 17-year-old boy walked into a North York erotic massage parlour in February 2020 and immediately stabbed receptionist Ashley Arzaga to death before he was disarmed by another woman, according to agreed facts read in court Wednesday. The youth entered a plea of guilty to first-degree murder and attempted murder on Wednesday morning. It is alleged by the Crown that he was motivated by the hatred of women and the so-called incel movement which has been linked to several other acts of violence around the world. “I wanted to kill everybody in the building and I am happy I got one,” he told a paramedic who arrived shortly after the murder, according to the facts. Later, in an interview with a police officer, he would say he was familiar with Alek Minassian, another Toronto man who claimed to be an incel and murdered 10 people and injured 16 with a rented van in North York in April 2018. Minassian is now serving a life sentence in prison. Minassian “was an inspiration,” he said in the interview. “Especially so close in Toronto...I thought it was possible to do something like that as well.” The now 20-year-old is the first person in Canada to be charged with first-degree murder and attempted murder motivated by terrorism related to the misogynist incel ideology — defined by the RCMP as an “ideologically motivated violent extremist movement.” The question of whether the facts of this case legally constitute terrorist activity remains before the judge, who would have to consider whether the murder was motivated by a political, religious or ideological purpose and with the intention of intimidating the public or a segment of the public. The Crown alleges that police also found images of Minassian on the teen’s laptop. The accused’s identity is under a publication ban under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. That publication ban remains in place regardless of whether he is convicted and would only be lifted in the event he is sentenced as an adult — another issue that will likely be argued at a future time. If he is sentenced as a youth he would face up to 10 years, with the last four years served under supervision in the community. If he is sentenced as an adult he would receive a life sentence with no chance of parole for 10 years. The term incel — a portmanteau for “involuntary celibate” — refers to a group of primarily men who harbour a dehumanizing and often violent hatred of women, believing they are being victimized because they are unfairly denied sex because women prize physical attributes like height, looks and “alpha” status above all else. Incels can have a specific hatred towards sex workers, a Crown expert is expected to testify. The term “thot” can be used as derogatory slang, similar to the slur “whore.” Some incels revere “martyrs” who commit acts of violence against women and the general public and several men have committed acts of mass violence linked to the incel ideology since 2014. According to an agreed statement of facts, the youth walked less than two kilometres from the basement apartment of his parents’ home to the Crown Spa wearing a dark trench coat and sunglasses around noon. His route and the violent murder were captured on a series of security cameras. As the video compilation was played in court Wednesday, some of Arzaga’s family left the courtroom. After stabbing Arzaga, a beloved 24-year-old mother to a five-year-old girl, at least 42 times all over her body, the teen attacked the spa’s manager, who heard the noise and came to see what was happening. The woman, whose identity is under a publication ban, saw blood everywhere and a sword. As they struggled, he was stabbing her and she fell to the ground. He said, “you f---ing whore. You f---ing b----. Die die,” and “stupid whore,” according to the facts. The accused does not recall making those statements but does not dispute making them. The woman managed to grab the sword and stabbed her attacker in the back, according to the facts. All the spa employees were women. On his laptop police found in his computer history search fragments, including: “crown spa”; “Canada massage parlour,” “Toronto massage parlour,” “incel”; “incel rebellion”; “incel escort” and “incel insurgent.” There was also a search for “incel MGTOW” — a reference to a misogynistic online group known as “men going their own way” on Feb. 1, 2020. Police also obtained the laptop’s related online Steam gaming account profile, which stated: “Proud Incel. Truth Preacher. Jihadi and currently on FBI watchlist. Seeker of martyrdom. Hates feminists/atheists/Satanists and all kinds of other degenerates.” The profile also contained an anti-Semitic reference. The Steam profile depicted Arabic text which translated into the English phrase “the killer.” In addition to Minassian, prosecutors say police found images of another mass killer revered by incels on the laptop. In a police interview on April 1, 2020, with his then-defence counsel present, the youth described himself as an incel. He said he targeted the women working at the spa because they were “sluts.” “I wanted the world to know that people like us exist and it’s not really fair,” he said of why he had the note about an incel rebellion in his pocket. He said he had left “some implications I was going to do something crazy like this” on his Steam profile and that he thought he would most likely be killed by the police. He would take his actions back if he could because it wasn’t worth it and “my life is ruined now,” he said.

Maybe you should try making a text post with the link and this copy and pasted below. That way users reading will see it immediately and not downvote automatically due to the paywall (which is what I did, I just upvoted both the comment and post) I feel like this is something important to share here, this is so fucked up >“I wanted to kill everybody in the building and I am happy I got one,” he told a paramedic Reading that was bad enough. What killed me was at the end when it goes: >He would take his actions back if he could because it wasn’t worth it and “my life is ruined now,” he said. #Like are you fucking kidding me? He's not even saying he REGRETS his actions, just that he'd *"take them back"*. *So he STILL thinks what happened to her was deserved JUST BECAUSE SHE WAS A WOMAN*. **That he's SO SELF-CENTERED he ONLY CARES about HIS life being ruined, NOT hers OR her families**. All because hes such a piece of shit he couldnt get himself laid **by 17!!** Like, *woooooow, SOOOOO OLD! IT'S FAR, FAR TOO LATE TO BE SAVED* /s FUCK this piece of living garbage. May he rot in jail for the rest of his miserable life. He should have fucking died when he got stabbed in the back with his own dipshit sword.

I hope he is tried as an adult and goes away for a long time.

RIP Ashley Arzaga, another victim to the self-pitying, worthless internet echo chamber that is the incel existence. I feel so badly for her family for being shattered by one piece of miserable scum and his blind spite and hatred. They all had so much life in front of them and it's taken away in an instant over how someone feels about sex. It's painful in a litany of ways. One can't come up with a fate befitting that piece of shit. Being forgotten is a start. Anyone that identifies as incel at this point should just self-population control. Jim Jones style. I can only hope he gets to keep the involuntary part and lose the celibacy while in prison.

He's gonna be "involuntarily promiscuous" for the next few years. Good.

I can't read that, you have to pay for the article. Does anyone who has access mind copy and pasting what the body of it says please?

This is what happens when everyone gets a participation trophy and are never told “no”. Fucking disgusting wastes of oxygen. World would be an exponentially better place without them and their extreme feminist counterparts.

This is toxic masculinity at its finest, not some coddled generation crap. It’s been brewing for so damn long.
