Murdered model was scalped and had blood drained

A model who was allegedly killed by her boyfriend was scalped, had her right ear torn off and had been drained of all her blood when police found her mutilated body, it has emerged.

Iana Kasian, 30, was found dead in her home in West Hollywood last year after her worried mother called police. 

Her boyfriend, 35-year-old Canadian real estate heir Blake Leibel, was arrested at the time after refusing to let police in to their apartment. 

He had attempted to barricade it with furniture when they arrived and found Kasian’s body in the couple’s bedroom. 

Ian Kasin was found dead in her West Hollywood apartment last year after being brutally tortured and drained of her blood. The mother-of-one’s boyfriend is in custody on murder charges 

The pair had an infant daughter who, it is reported, was on the bed with her mother’s body when she was found. 

Few other details of the case had been available until this week when the Kasian’s autopsy report was released. 

According to ABC 13 which has obtained a copy of the document, Kasian’s scalp had been entirely removed when she was found. 

There were bite marks on her jaw and parts of her face had also been ripped off including her right ear. 

The Los Angeles Department of the Medical Examiner ruled that the woman’s cause of death was exsanguination, the act of draining a person of blood.

Liebel was on bail for rape at the time of his girlfriend’s killing. Because rape victims are never identified by police, it is not known whether Kasian was his alleged victim.

At the time of his girlfriend’s death, Liebel was writing graphic novels. 

He was being supported by money from his wealthy real estate developer father in Canada and was also living off of inheritance money he received following his mother’s death from brain cancer, prosecutors have told. 

Liebel was walked out of the pair’s apartment in handcuffs in June last year after his girlfriend’s body was found. 

A neighbor told The Toronto Star there were bruises on his legs and that he looked ‘deranged’. 

His lawyers have asked for a mental health evaluation which has put his trial on hold. 

He remains in custody.
