Evidently a new user on a POV campaign at Paul Bernardo and some related articles, trying to defend Bernardo as the hapless victim to his partner Karla Homolka's evil campaign, or some such (e.g.  . Obvious username similarity, and obviously intending to deploy throwaway sleepers (the accounts each make a handful of edits before moving on, although only a few of them are actually blocked). Several of the accounts have also made a peculiar reference to having additional accounts (see edit summaries  and  for example). Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 02:50, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

It's been a while but this user appears to be back with another new account keeping up the "Karla Homolka is a witch" pattern, including the oddly-obsessive edits about the significances of various random dates. Compare:
 * Pure-Blood Witch: (edit summary "First documented assault was on the 17th birthday of his ex wife (May 4, 1987)")
 * (added text "The first rape took place on Karla Homolka's 17th birthday." Also in edit summary: "The 7th of June is an evil day" which I don't understand exactly but the rest of that revdeleted edit summary was a long allegation of witchcraft; this shows the user's obsession with dates)
 * (an impressive rant which includes the text "There were two things that happened on Karla's birthday, the 4th of May. He assaulted a woman in Scarborough in 1987 and he pleaded not guilty to the murders in 1994. They call him the Scarborough rapist? I call her the witch of Ontario!")
 * Note that this supposed first assault date is always unsourced, and always removes widely-accepted sources alleging an earlier date. Previous socks have also suggested attributed other completely random date similarities to Homolka's supposed witchcraft, including one suggesting she was born on the same day as the Kent State shooting ( revdeleted, public but summary deleted), and Pure-Blood Witch removed material from a CIA article because it was supposedly contributed on an anniversary of Hitler's birth.

More obsessive conspiracy theories on Karla Homolka, this time insisting without sources that a German punk rock song is written about her, despite the song having been written while the case leading to Homolka's notoriety was still being investigated by police.
