"Historically, one "Happy Face" killer did exist. Starting in 1992, serial killer Keith Jesperson of Wyoming sent anonymous letters to news reporters signed with a handdrawn smiley. However, not only were his victims female, none of them were drowned (Associated Press, 1997). His use of a smiley appears eerily similar to the Watchmen comic book series from 19861987 that included smiley faces dripping with blood to symbolize the death of innocence. However, again, none of the murders were drownings, and the comic's use of vaporization as a means of death (Watchmen, 2010) is not a common serial killer signature. "
like, where the guy doing stuff gets videoed doing stuff.
is there a smiley face component to these?
from what i've heard there is smiley face graffiti basically everywhere graffiti is. River banks usually have a lot of graffiti.
pretty much the idea is that there's a guy/group of people going around the country murdering college-aged boys, then dumping them in rivers and marking their work by tagging a smiley face nearby
Most of the times the rivers aren't frozen, just really cold, so it's not like a case where you'd try to take a short cut over some ice. Like this first episode the guy would've had to cross a major road, navigate a bunch of concrete steps only to "fall" in afterwards because he went down to take a leak. Nevermind that he had clear ligature marks around his neck the ME ignored.
A detail only the killer would know. I know you are just trying to throw everyone off your trail, the 48k posts is a nice touch. No one's going to think that you'd have the time to commit these crimes, even over the course of a decade plus.
Should have said freezing water. Taking a piss on edge of river and falling in doesn't really seem that unbelievable. Especially one like the milwaukee river which is right around tons of bars with fairly high walls. Once you're in GL climbing out when drunk and in sub 30 degree water.

UWL grad?
i once passed out on a couch in Eau Claire. had to be 5 AM. woke up when i heard a marching band going down the street. homecoming weekend. it was before 9. turned out the previous night's party and had ####### obliterated the couch and i was laying on the shattered bones of the couch's remains. no recollection of how it happened but have been told i was at least partly responsible.
took a while..
Yeah I remember UWEC freshman year being warned about the river and the bridge specifically that separates campus from main st and not getting ####-faced and falling in. EC Homecoming stood in direct opposition to that warning. At least until they changed the stadium parking lot game day mayhem into some sort of cordoned off area that you needed a ticket to (I think.) Ruined everything
