Identity of Seventh Body...continued from front page
Johnson stated that Canady and Stubbs had had a relationship around mid to late October, but that Stubbs had broken it off recently.
"He was afraid of her," Johnson said. "He said she was into really freaky stuff. She was into S&M and angry sex. She wasn't his type at all. She really freaked him out and he was afraid to answer the phone after a while because he was afraid it would be her. She'd show up at our house and like, stalk him."
Police believe a confrontation between Canady, Stubbs and Hooper resulted in the stabbing deaths of Stubbs and Hooper.
Blood of all five victims was in Canady's apartment on strips of fabric and toilet paper found on and around the body of Canady and the unidentified victim.
Canady apparently used body parts of the five victims to make the seventh body. Tissue from the neck matched the tissue from the body of Marks. The upper torso of the body had been stitched to Marks' neck and the torso was found to be that of Blank. The arms were also Blank's. The hands, which had been sawed off at the wrist bone post mortem, were those of Stubbs. Hooper's ears, still wearing small earrings, were found sewn into the pieces of cloth that made the "head" of the seventh body. The long legs on the body belonged to Hooker.
The seventh body, known as "Amy" because of pieces of clay used to spell out the name found nearby, was carefully disassembled, and the remains are to be delivered to the Fisher and Sons Funeral Home, which will handling all of the five victims' funerals.
"At last, the horror is over," stated Orange County coronor Fred Weeks. "But then again, can anyone really forget anything as horrible as this? I can only hope the images will fade as time passes. There's nobody to be mad at or take your anger out on. It's just one of those horrible cases that you hope you'll forget someday."
