Any update on the canal pusher? 😅

In a span of 9 years, 85 people were recorded to have drowned in British canals and while police said it's nothing out of the ordinary for that many people to fall in while intoxicated, the population considered it too much to be a coincidence and was concerned a serial killer was pushing victims in.

Ten years later, someone on here started posting about it every day. (And deleting for some reason.) But while everyone else was debating whether the deaths were murder or accidents, he is posting over and over again about how the canals are too shallow to drown in.

When I asked to confirm he was arguing the death reports were all fake, he blocked me. 🤔 Ok, I may also have suggested perhaps he's so obsessed with this because he is the serial killer, being annoyed by the police discrediting his work as the victims' own doing. 😅

Anyway, has he given any explanation about his obsession or unique approach to solving this mystery? 😅

Ya, aren't most of the canal about waist hight tops?
@JimboSaturn I haven't checked that, but that's what he says. Not that it matters for it being accidents, murders or no drownings at all though, because people can drown in as little as 1 foot.

Perhaps it's Robbie Cummings from Canal Boat Diaries.
I haven't seen him today, maybe he fell in a canal? 🤷‍♂
@Mindfulness if so, thankfully he'll just be delayed a little to get some dry clothes, because he can't drown in British canals. 😅
@NerdyPotato unless that pesky serial killer has struck again! 🤞

Sounds like the smiley face killer claims.

A Jack the Ripper mystery for our own times 😬

I have a sneaking suspicion (but unfortunately no evidence to support it) that this may be the same person with a very short daughter who was repeatedly seeking advice (and deleting posts) here about two years ago.
@SunshineGirl oh, I remember that one too. He was definitely equally repetitive and unique, so there could be a link.
