Serial Killer at large in Manchester?

That's still a large catchment area for a serial killer to be operating in though. And they would have to render the victim unconscious to ensure they drowned when they went in the water and didn't survive to report they'd been attacked. Have any of the post-mortems indicated any type of injuries associated with the cause of death?

I don't know I'm too lazy to do my own research into each case. From a few articles I read though (briefly) there was a couple of muggings and all seemed to be on their way home from a night out.

The two that happened on New Years Day are some distance apart and would mean the perpertrator hanging around one area to push the first guy in and then travelling to the second location in the hope someone else turned up? Then more hanging around the River Goyt two nights later in anticipation of another 'victim' walking along to meet their fate?

And they only strike in January and June?

Regarding the distances. The hypothetical perpetration could have been walking home or elsewhere, spotted another victim and just replicated the act on the same night. Or they could hang about different areas of the canals on different nights, depending on what goes on in the City centre be it football, certain nights out etc. If there is foul play, they are less likely to be caught with all the variation in locations, rather than down the same stretch of canal time after time.

maybe we have got a new bread of the east manchester scuttlers gang going around on the canals

<a class="postlink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scuttlers" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scuttlers</a>

this sounds like the crowd on the new islington wharf (ashton canal)

They generally wore a uniform of brass-tipped pointed clogs, bell-bottomed trousers, cut like a sailor's ("bells" that measured fourteen inches round the knee and twenty-one inches round the foot) and "flashy" silk scarves. Their hair was cut short at the back and sides, but they grew long fringes, known as "donkey fringes", that were longer on the left side and plastered down on the forehead over the left eye. Peaked caps were also worn tilted to the left to display the fringe.[1] The scuttlers' girlfriends also had a distinctive style of dress consisting of clogs, shawl, and a vertically striped skirt.[3]

It sounds like the usual suspects at the BM meet-ups.
