News : Swamp Thing Kills Again

On June 28th at approximately 2pm in the afternoon, two bird watchers stumbled across the brutally mutilated body of a dead woman in the Sinners Bay swamp lands.
The unidentified woman was approximately 5'8" weighing 140lbs with medium brown hair, and found dressed in cotton pyjamas.
Whilst there were multiple knife wounds and lacerations to the body, her clothes did not appear to have any blood stains.




Medical staff at the crime scene, a Miss Jessica Jinshu (RN), declared the woman deceased. An exact cause of death may later be made known in autopsy findings though it is likely to have been a direct result of the violent slash across the victim's throat.
Miss Jinshu also commented that the body of another woman sustaining identical injuries had also been found in the swamp last month.
The police were again unable to comment at the time of this report.

Horrific Murder in Sinners Bay

Woman Found Mutilated
by Isabo Baxton

May 17, 2010, Sinners Bay -- Early Tuesday morning, police found the corpse of an unknown woman in an alley. The woman had been stabbed multiple times. The torso of the victim's body was covered with slash marks mainly focusing on the woman's breasts. One nipple had been almost completely severed.

As usual, Sheriff Gary Menna was unavailable for comment.

The following is a "confidential" autopsy report filed by Dr. K. Balut of the Sinners Bay Medical Center.

Autopsy Report May 17, 2010
Performed by: Dr. Kayleigh Balut

Victim: unknown, Jane Doe
Age: Mid/Late 30's
Height: 5 foot, 7 inches
Weight: 130 Pounds

Subject is an adult female. Subject has not yet been identified, dental records and DNA check is being performed in an attempt to positively ID the victim.

Subject appears to have been in fair health at time of death. External exam indicates multiple knife wounds all over her body. Most wounds are shallow, designed to inflict pain rather than damage. None show signs of healing, which would indicate that all wounds were inflicted over a short period of time, less than four hours, likely all in less than one hour.

Wounds listed as follows:
Right arm - three wounds to the upper arm, two to the lower, all less than 1/3" deep.
Left arm - four wounds to the upper arm, one serious cut to the inner elbow, one wound to the lower arm, one very shallow on the back of the hand. Inner elbow wound severed major arteries, and would have bleed profusely. All other wounds are consistent in size and depth to the right arm.
Torso. - Multiple wounds to the upper torso, concentrated on the breasts. Deep puncture stab wounds at the site of both nipples, depth of two inches. Right nipple was also sliced, nearly removed from the breast.

No stab wounds found below the victims waist. Defensive knife wounds are minimal, and no DNA was found under the victims' fingernails.

Large cut to the throat, four inches across, two and one half inches deep, severing the jugular. This is the cause of death.

Minimal blood found on the victims clothing, cotton pajama top and pants, indicating that the body was cleaned and dressed post mortem.

Internal examination of the organs show the subject to be in poor health for her age. Early stage cirrhosis of the liver is evident, as well as weakening of the heart muscle. A small stomach ulcer is noted at well. Toxicology studies indicate substantial amounts of narcotics, and blood alcohol reading is .08
