FOX: Bodies keep surfacing — and so do questions.
There’s a dark current in Houston’s bayous this year, with 16 bodies recovered, five of them in the same week last month.
City leaders are downplaying speculation about a potential serial killer, but retired NYPD Sgt. Kevin Gannon, who has long espoused the theory that a group known as the “Smiley Face Killers” is responsible for hundreds of suspicious drowning deaths around the U.S., says he believes the deaths may be connected. more
…I like the way the mayor just wants to skip things like autopsies that may cause conflicts with his “homeless people burying each other in the bayou” theories, even though all nonhospital deaths are SUPPOSED to be investigated by the coroner.
Its kind of like how they dont do fire investigations on car fires now because this would create some actual statistics they dont want about EVs…
So are these “Smiley Face Killers” a group of ILLEGAL Asians killing off Houston’s Homeless, then dumping the corpse into the water so they can surf fish for sharks, so they can collect the dorsal fins for Shark Fin Soup?
SNS: From what I have seen, when there is an autopsy in a non-hospital death they generally just pencil-whip the report and put down whatever theory has been floated. Short of finding blunt force trauma or knife of stab wounds, they really don’t look that closely.
I wish that weren’t the case, but there would be backlogs and significant cost increases if things were done the way they were supposed to be done.

“SNS: From what I have seen, when there is an autopsy in a non-hospital death they generally just pencil-whip the report and put down whatever theory has been floated.”
…probably true, but even so they have to follow a general format for it to not stand out ad different even to the untrained eye, and that means it must be inclusive of a toxicology report. Yes, you can fudge those too, but with 16 and climbing of them SOMEONE may miss laying their red pen on some truth…
The former detective is looking for his 15 minutes of fame.
Since the age of about twelve I have always replaced “may” and “might” in articles that are leading the reader along to accepting their conclusion with “may not” and “might not.” I just do that as I read or listen to the bullshitters bullshitting. There is absolutely nothing in the story that has changed regarding what is being claimed, so it is entirely fair to the author. I’ve never heard a “may” that also “may not.” Have you?
