Serial Killer at large in Manchester?

[mackenzie]

Even in my own family history there is at least one male who drowned there or thereabouts.
It's not anything new I think, more to do with stuff getting reported more.

 

[tidyman]

He's one lazy arsed serial killer.

Unless he's been banged up, there's really no excuse for this lack of activity.

I'd be interested to see how the numbers stack up with say Amsterdam where there are more canals and more excesses had.

OP your not alone in your theory, it is something I have said to my wife after a significant number of missing people found dead in a river/canal... All very similar circumstances.

Below are some I found with a quick google search...

There's been another body found in an Ancoats canal tonight.


7.33pm



Police are searching the canal at Ancoats after receiving reports of a body.

Police confirmed they were at the canal near Butler Street and divers were present.

Wonder if it's male.

I would be surprised if the body was female. Unfortunately, I am not surprised there is another body recovered.
Is there anywhere I can study reports of bodies recovered from canals in Manchester in the past couple of years?

I'm toying with a theory related to O.P's question

Well it's in his username

 

[Bones]

I have always thought it's very strange the amount bodies they find in canals in Manchester. Seems far too often

 

[johnny on the spot]

Why don't we investigate it?

 

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

Believe me. This is no serial killer.

For some un beknown reason.When people are steaming drunk they are attracted to the water.
