“police are not acknowledging this investigation for fear suspects will take precautions”
They don’t want the perpetrator(s)
to get a foot up on them, and are
pretty much stumped at this point.
For them to get to the bottom of
this will be quite a feet. But they
will, as none of them wants to feel
like a heel. They will toe the line.
/winner!
RED: I ever tell you the story about Larry ‘’No Foot’’ Mulligan?
ERIC: Well, I can guess. He had no foot?
RED: Larry was a buddy of mine who lost his foot during the war. And then, on his way back to the States, ol’ One Foot — at that point we were calling him One Foot — had his ship go down, and a shark ate his other foot. But he made it all the way back home. And do you know what happened to him when he got here?
ERIC: He overcame his handicap and, ironically, became a shoe salesman?
RED: No. His girlfriend dumped him.
ERIC: Well, thank God it had a happy ending.
Looks like they've ID'd some but not all. Of those, several apparently committed suicide - a woman who jumped from a bridge up river, and a man whose family said he was suicidal. The coroner (who may or may not know his business, depends) has ruled out foul play in inquests.
I would be surprised if a serial killer was able to keep up his predations undiscovered from 1985 to the present day. And apparently the discovery of feet in shoes in the area dates back well into the 1800s, so he'd be a long-lived fellow if he existed.
Is there a problem in the area with high tides and/or tidal bores? or some other water hazard that might drown joggers on the beach? I dimly remember reading about rogue waves or something similar in the area.
Doesn't explain the rest though.
