Most, probably have just stumbled or committed suicide in the canal, but a couple do seem a suspicious. I've forgotten his name but that lad that phoned his mother distressed in the early hours of the morning was very strange.
You would expect signs of injury though from a fall so maybe any injuries were consistent with that. So say someone fell, hit their head and knocked themselves out you would accept that. So maybe head trauma would be common in this type of incident. So any signs of head trauma could be consistent with a fall.
Most people don't land on their head in a fall.
Well these people are supposedly so drunk that when they hit water they drown so you might expect some sort of injury that meant they couldn't swim. And anyway when they are in the water they could strike something, especially in a flowing river.
