Canadian-born Brian Dickson is charged with the first-degree murder of 23-year-old Chinese exchange student Qian ‘Necole’ Liu.
Miss Liu's semi-naked body was found in her flat near York University in northern Toronto after her boyfriend was forced to watch helplessly as she struggled with her attacker 6,000 miles away.
It is alleged Liu was chatting with her partner, Meng Xianchao, over the internet when there was a knock on the door at about one am last Friday.
He saw a man enter the room and ask Miss Liu if he could use her mobile phone and then try to hug her. However, it is reported that he became aggressive when she declined the embrace and a struggle broke out.
Mr Xianchao looked on helplessly from Beijing as the struggle continued before Miss Liu's webcam was turned off.
'At that moment my mind went blank and I was cursing him from my webcam, I was so far away I couldn't reach her.
'I felt so helpless and I couldn't calm down until in the end the guy closed the computer,' he told CTV.
He contacted friends in Toronto who called police who went round to the 'hard working' Miss Liu's basement apartment.
They found her body, naked from the waste down, although there were no obvious signs of sexual assault or trauma severe enough to kill her. Read More
