9 in Nevada air race crash; close to 70 injured September 18, 2011 -- Updated 0200 GMT (1000 HKT) Reno, Nevada (CNN) -- The number of people killed when a pilot lost control of his vintage plane and crashed into spectators during an air race over Reno, Nevada, rose to nine Saturday. Seven people died on the tarmac, including the pilot, and two more died in hospitals, Reno police said. Officials had previously put the death toll at three. Close to 70 people were injured in the incident, which occurred Friday. National Transportation Safety Board member Mark Rosekind said investigators are looking at whether the plane's apparently damaged elevator trim tab -- whose breaking apart was captured in a photograph -- played a role in the nosedive crash. Authorities do not know why the aircraft went down. "We're aware of that, and in fact, a component has been recovered in the area where it was observed, but it's critical at this point to note that we have not identified this component," Rosekind told reporters. "It will be examined, so we don't know what the component is and whether it came from this particular aircraft." He said later that investigators had identified and recovered portions of the accident aircraft tail. Investigators will be poring over a trove of spectators' videos and photos, he said. "It seems there were a tremendous number of cameras and video that was captured," he said. "On the one hand, it's an excellent source of information, but on the other hand, there's not a lot of other specific components from the wreckage that at this point we can identify." At the time of the crash,
three NTSB investigators happened to be at the air show
-- a common practice -- and one of them has been
appointed investigator in charge, Rosekind said. The
board will look at safety oversight and the placement of
the grandstands for the air race, Rosekind said.
Investigators are also looking into whether the plane had
a black box, Rosekind Reno Mayor Bob Cashell told reporters that the air race spectator fatalities were the first in four decades. The Reno Air Race Association was founded in 1964, according to its Facebook page. "This is the first time in 40 years, I think, that we've had a visitor injured or killed," Cashell said Saturday. "We've lost some pilots, but we've never had a major catastrophe."
When asked if the high-speed air race was held too close to public viewers, Cashell responded: "I'm not an expert on that. It's going to be up to the airport authority and it's going to be up to the air race board, and it's going to be up to these guys," referring to the NTSB investigators. "We would like to see if we can keep it open," the mayor said about the air race and its future. One local hospital, Renown Medical Center, received 34 patients, six of whom were in critical condition as of Saturday evening, a spokeswoman said. Two of the six critical patients suffered major head injuries and their prognosis is "guarded," according to Dr. Myron Gomez, chief of trauma services. Two patients -- a male and a female -- died, the hospital said Friday. Dr. Mike Morkin, the medical director of emergency services at the hospital, was on duty when the call about the crash came in Friday. "The severity of this accident was the worst I've seen since I've been at Renown," Morkin, a 16-year veteran at the hospital, said, adding "it was traumatic." Renown South Meadows Medical Center received and discharged five patients, the hospital said Saturday. St. Mary's Hospital in Reno said it had accepted 28 patients from the accident: two were in critical condition, seven in serious condition, and five in fair condition as of Saturday afternoon. Fourteen other patients were treated and released Friday. The pilot, identified as Jimmy Leeward, a real estate developer from Ocala, Florida, was killed in the crash, according to a show official. The 74-year-old was flying a P-51 Mustang. Saturday races were canceled in the wake of the crash, the show said. A memorial service scheduled for the pilot in Reno was also canceled because his family left the area, said Valerie Miller, a race spokeswoman. 'Mass casualties' reported after plane crashes at Nevada air show September 17, 2011 -- Updated 0216 GMT (1016 HKT) Reno, Nevada (CNN) -- "Mass casualties" were reported after a plane crashed Friday into the box seat area in front of a grandstand at the National Championship Air Races and Air Show in Reno, Nevada, a spokesman for the show told CNN. Mike Draper said he's been told there are "likely fatalities," but it has not been determined how many or who they may be. The pilot, identified as Jimmy Leeward, a real estate developer from Ocala, Florida, was likely killed in the crash, the show said in a statement. He was flying a P-51 Mustang. A Reno, Nevada, hospital said Friday evening on its website that it had received a "total of 21 patients" after the plane crashed. "No further patients are expected at this time," the Renown Regional Medical Center reported at 5:45 p.m. PT. The conditions of those patients were not released. Video from the scene, posted on YouTube, showed a plane plummeting from the sky, sending up clouds of dust and debris. Shocked spectators rose to their feet. Fred Scholz, a witness, said he saw the plane seemingly "coming straight down."
"I thought he was coming right on top of us," he said, noting that the aircraft ultimately hit about 100 feet from him, in an area of box seats, filled with folding chairs. "Luckily there was no fire, which surprised me," said Scholz, a 59-year-old from Truckee, California, who says he goes to air races ever year. "It just happened so quickly." The plane, called the "Galloping Ghost," was taking part in a qualifying round in the "unlimited class" division of the air race when it went down around 4:15 p.m. PT Friday, Draper said. The final rounds had been slated for the weekend. The aircraft was about a lap into the race when the pilot sent out a "Mayday signal" and pulled "out of the lap" before crashing into a box seat area that is in front of a grandstand at the "very large race field," located about 15 miles north of Reno, Draper said. "It was clear that (the plane) was pulling up and was in distress," he said. He added that authorities do not yet know why the aircraft went down. Besides the Federal Aviation Administration personnel already there to assist the National Transportation Safety Board in any investigation, the show's spokesman said that National Guard members -- who were on-site practicing before the incident -- are helping emergency personnel to clear the area. "There are people still being escorted out of that area with various injuries," Draper said. Local fire officials are reporting multiple fatalities and critical injuries, according to Ian Gregor, a spokesman with the FAA. He said the aircraft did not catch fire, but there was a wide debris field following the crash.

COMMENTS (9/17/11): My God, who could believe this was possible?? This apparently was even worse than the stage collapse last month. Massive casualties and many deaths are being reported from other news sites, although an accurate count has not been determined as of yet. This report from CNN is not stating how horrible the accident scene was. Limbs and body parts were strewn about the field according to some very credible news sources.
What is also very eerie is how similar the images of the grandstand (being on the left side) and the panicked crowd at the air show is to the image I used in my prediction above with the grandstand of the car racing accident and panicked crowd also on the left. This event more closely resembles my prediction than the stage collapse. I hope this is the last PREDICTION FULFILLED for this kind of tragedy. I only wish I could have been spot on with the months (August and September instead of June) and that my warnings could have been heeded. But something tells me that if the dead and injured had avoided the box seats, this plane would have crashed all the more deeply into the grandstand itself, killing and injuring even more people.

collapse death toll reaches seven NME.COM August 23, 2011 17:04
A seventh person has died following the stage collapse at the Indiana State Fair on August 13. Meagan Toothman, a 24-year-old cheerleading coach, passed away yesterday (August 22) after suffering brain injures following the tragic incident, reports Contact Music. Toothman had been on life support for nine days. Her family released the following statement: "Late [Sunday] night it became apparent that our Meagan was no longer with us. The decision was made to allow to her to be at peace... She is scheduled for a surgery that will provide gifts of sight, health, and life to dozens who are in need." Strong winds toppled the metal scaffolding holding lights and equipment, sending it plunging into fans awaiting a concert by country outfit Sugarland. Several people were killed instantly, and over 40 people were injured. On Saturday, it was revealed that a 22 year old college student was the sixth fatality after injuries suffered at the festival, according to Billboard.com. Jennifer Haskell died on the morning of August 19 at a hospital in Indianapolis. Her uncle, Mike Whited, announced her death in a statement. Haskell was entering her senior year at Ball State University, where she was studying sports medicine. Last Thursday, storms brought stages down at Belgium's Pukkelpop festival, killing four. Horrific moment the stage collapsed onto screaming crowd at Indiana State Fair killing at least five and injuring 45 Mail Online 8:20 PM on 15th August 2011
This is the horrifying moment a stage collapsed during a storm last night at the Indiana State Fair, killing at least five people and injuring dozens more. Fans screamed hysterically afterstrong winds caused the stage rigging for the outdoor concert to collapseon top of them shortly before 9pm as a country music band were about to perform. Emergency crews were called to the scene to tend to those trapped beneath the stage and workers set up a command centre to treat to those who were injured. Children are said to have been among 45 people who were badly hurt. Thousands of concert-goers were being evacuated to a nearby building because of high winds of up to 60 mph (96 km/h) when the rigging for the stage fell onto the track where some were seated. 'It was like it was in slow motion,' concert-goer Amy Weathers told the Indianapolis Star. 'You couldn't believe it was actually happening.' Those who were injured were being moved to a tunnel below the stage, the Star reported. A hole was being dug to try to reach those trapped beneath the rigging. One of those killed was stagehand Nate Byrd, 51, who was on the rigging to run the show's spotlight. Mr Byrd was crushed after he fell to the ground with the stage and died on Sunday at Methodist Hospital.
Also killed on the scene were Tammy Vandam, 42, of Wanatah, Indiana; Glenn Goodrich, 49, of Indianapolis; Alina BigJohny, 23 of Fort Wayne and Christina Santiago, 29, of Chicago, according to the Marion County Coroner's office. Alina, a 23-year-old teacher, can be seen in pictures happily smiling for the camera before the accident claimed her young life. Other shots show Christina Santiago, 29, who also died in the accident.Miss Santiago was manager of programming for the Lesbian Community Care Project at Howard Brown Health Center, in Chicago. She leaves behind a long-term girlfriend. 'It’s a tragic moment,' Todd Taylor, a neighbour of Santiago and her partner, said. 'They’re good people. They had two pets they loved and adored. They were very much in love with each other. For this to happen with them being so young is tragic.' A 17-year-old boy may never walk again after his back was broken in the accident, his mother said. The lead singer of the country duo Sugarland said she has watched recaps of last night's deadly stage collapse with horror and 'there are no words to process a moment of this magnitude and gravity. I am so moved,' Jennifer Nettles said. 'Moved by the grief of those families who lost loved ones. Moved by the pain of those who were injured and the fear of their families. Moved by the great heroism as I watched so many brave Indianapolis fans actually run toward the stage to try and help lift and rescue those injured. Moved by the quickness and organisation of the emergency workers who set up the triage and tended to the injured.' Gov. Mitch Daniels called
the collapse a 'freakish accident', but he praised the
response as instantaneous and highly professional. One man who narrowly escaped the falling stage said: 'When the stage collapsed, it missed my foot by about a foot and a half.' After making sure his girlfriend was alright, he said he helped try to lift the scaffolding off people who were trapped. 'It's the way it fell. There were many people that were trapped underneath it but it didn't land on everybody,' he told local station WTHR. 'It was the most traumatic thing I've ever seen,' Crystal Wilbur told the station. 'Everybody just came in together as a team.' Tony Francis was in the second row with his wife. He said: 'I saw at least five [possible fatalities] myself.' 'When I left they had just lifted the master speakers and they found two more underneath that.' Mr Francis told WTHR his wife 'triaged about ten or twelve people with compound fractures, lacerations, a lot of head injuries and neck injuries.' Natalie Prater, who is a nurse, said the injured included a child. She described the 'amazing team effort' in the aftermath of the collapse. 'There was no way we could be forewarned that something like this could happen,' she told WTHR. She was leaving the concert with her husband when the stage collapsed. 'We heard things popping and we took off running. People were pushing. We turned around and saw the stage collapsing. 'Then we ran back, hopped over rafters and went to help as many people as we possibly can.' She estimated there could be 50 injured or more. Photographer Darron Cummings was in the audience attending the concert shortly before the collapse. He said an announcer gave the crowd instructions on how to evacuate if the weather worsened, but said they hoped to get Sugarland, the country band set to perform, on stage soon. Mr Cummings said he and his friends went ahead and sought shelter in a nearby barn after seeing the weather radar. 'Then we heard screams. We heard people just come running,' Mr Cummings said. Witnesses told WTHR that some of the injured were in a VIP section in front of the stage known as the 'Sugar Pit'. The witnesses said a wall of dirt, dust, rain and wind came up the main thoroughfare of the fairgrounds just before the collapse. 'Panic kicked in when they seen the dust bowl coming in from the Midway,' concert-goer Darryl Cox told WTHR. Another person at the concert, Emily Davis, told WTHR that there was lightning and the sky had gotten dark but it wasn't raining when the wind suddenly toppled the rigging. 'It was horrible, people were running and going crazy,' she said. Concert stage collapses in Indianapolis, killing five At least five people died and more than 40 were injured when a concert stage collapsed during a sudden storm at a state fair in Indianapolis The Telegraph
A crowd of 12,000 had gathered in front of the stage at the Indiana State Fair to see country music performers. Witnesses however said a burst of high wind toppled the rigging and sent steel scaffolding toppling into the front section of the audience. Hundreds of concert-goers rushed in to try to lift heavy beams, lights and other equipment in an attempt to save people below. Many of those injured were said to have suffered head and neck injuries and broken bones. The collapse happened during a break in performances. Grammy-nominated singer Sara Bareilles had finished less than 30 minutes earlier, commenting on what a "beautiful night" it was before she left the stage. Country band Sugarland, who have sold more than nine million albums, were due to perform next.
Witnesses said a "wall of dust" suddenly engulfed the stage. Jason Scofield, who was in the audience, said: "All of the sudden there was a gust and the stage started to twist slowly. The grandstand started to shake. Everyone started to run instantly to try and get out." Jamie Roberts, 25, said: "It really did look like slow motion. All we could do was hold hands." Minutes before the storm struck an announcement was made that severe weather was possible, and instructions were given to the crowd on what to do if an evacuation became necessary. However, the announcement also said concert organisers hoped the show would go on and many fans stayed put. Indiana state police sergeant Dave Bursten said emergency services and fair officials had been monitoring the weather. He said preparations had been underway to evacuate the area but the "significant gust of wind" struck before the evacuation plan was activated. Sgt Bursten said: "As we all know, weather can change in a very rapid period of time." He added that some people had suffered "very serious injuries" and there was a "very likely possibility" the death toll could mount. The dead included Nate Byrd, 52, a stage hand, who was on the stage at the time. The injured included at least three children. Police identified those killed as Alina Bigjohny, 23, from Fort Wayne, Christina Santiago of Chicago, 29, and Indianapolis residents Tammy Vandam, 42, Glenn Goodrich, 49, and Byrd, 51, who died in hospital overnight.
Concert-goer Darron Cummings said he and his friends had already sought refuge in a barn before the collapse, having seen weather predictions. He said: "Then we heard screams. We heard people just come running." Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels called it a “freakish accident.” He said: “There was no way we could have foreseen how a gust of wind could have harmed structures there.” Cindy Hoye, executive director of the Indiana State Fair, said the event would reopen on Monday morning with a remembrance gathering. The event runs from Aug 5-21 and Janet Jackson is due to perform on Wednesday. Stage collapses at Indiana State Fair, killing five Reuters Aug 14, 2011 11:11 AM ET By Susan Guyett
INDIANAPOLIS – A fifth person has died from the collapse of an outdoor concert stage in heavy wind just before a weekend show at the Indiana State Fair, authorities said on Sunday. More than 40 people were injured in the collapse on Saturday night, Indiana State Police said. The collapse occurred just minutes before the country duo Sugarland was set to begin performing. Concert officials had informed spectators that the show might have to be postponed due to the winds, but a strong gust blew the stage over before any official evacuation order was issued. Authorities had initially put the death toll at four. One of those killed was stagehand Nate Byrd, 52, who was on the stage at the time of the accident. An amateur video posted on YouTube showed a heavy gust of wind blowing down the stage rigging. People in the crowd can be heard screaming. Spectators tried to hold up parts of the collapsed stage that fell into the standing area below to help anyone who might be trapped, eyewitnesses said. The fair was closed on Sunday but expected to reopen on Monday. Sugarland sent a Twitter message about the incident, saying: “We are all right. We are praying for our fans, and the people of Indianapolis. We hope you’ll join us. They need your strength.” |
COMMENTS (8/16/11): Close enough. PREDICTION FULFILLED. Indianapolis, eh? Not the Indianapolis Speedway, though. Unless there is going to be a sportscar racing disaster besides involving many dead spectators, I would say this was the event instead. Even though this was a stage collapse at the Indiana State Fair (in Indianapolis), and not a catastrophe at a racing event (for which Indianapolis is well-noted for) I am stunned by the timing and the scope of the tragedy. In all , thus far, 5 dead and 45 or 50 injured. The video tells all. Horrific and terrifying. All that's missing is that Hindenburg reporter guy, you know the one who cries out, "Oh, the humanity!" Oh, yeah ... here he is:
Continue or return to previous position.
NEW PREDICTION: 3/27/09 -- The nude body of a 45-year-old woman will be found lying, raped and strangled, in her bed about the middle of June 2011. She will be strangled with her panties, pantyhose, or other lingerie item. Three more will die before the month of June has ended. Another four will die before the year is over. In all, thirteen women between the ages of 19 and 65, and a fourteenth victim, an underage female between 12 and 16 years of age, will be murdered by the sex strangler by January 2013. Victim number 13, coincidentally having the last name of "Kennedy," will be strangled on the same day President Obama is assassinated. The final victim, a minor, will be raped and strangled in January 2013. However, the strangler will horrify police and public by hanging her naked body by the neck from a light fixture in the bedroom ceiling.
The strangler may disappear during a period of global chaos and never be captured or he may be caught after attempting to murder a 19-year-old college girl in October 2013. This all depends on exactly when Planet X conducts its inbound and outbound passages, and which passage is the most severe ... or if Planet X and global war are postponed for another 30 years.
The last serial murder(s) on this timeline: there were two: 1) The Baseline Killer (aka The Baseline Rapist) and 2) The Serial Shooter. The two spread fear across the Phoenix area from summer 2005 to summer 2006. However, because the Baseline Killer's crimes also included rape (without homicide) and robberies, some sources place the beginning of his reign of terror shortly after he was paroled and released from prison in spring 2004. I mistakenly gave myself a zero for predicting this series of slayings would begin in summer 2004. Technically, I should have scored a 1.0 because 1) Baseline's rapes began in 2004, but were largely unreported by the news media and 2) 2005 was adjacent to 2004. The base 7 system allows for the occasional overlap of one calendar year either late or premature.
This Strangler series, however, should not be late. It should begin pretty much on schedule in June 2011, unless there are a few early cases in autumn 2010.
| Long Island murder
mystery: New body parts found; now 11 victims Los Angeles Times By Tina Susman | February 21, 2012, 6:40 a.m.
A murder mystery that is haunting Long Island has taken a new twist with the discovery of more human remains, bringing to at least 11 the number of possible slaying victims found since a woman's disappearance in May 2010 indicated a serial killer was on the loose. The remains of the missing woman, Shannan Gilbert, a prostitute who advertised on Craigslist, were discovered in December in a marshy area of Long Island near Oak Beach, where she was last seen alive. Police eventually concluded she probably was not murdered but drowned after falling into a swamp, perhaps while fleeing in the dark from her last customer. The months of searching for her remains, however, uncovered several other bodies or parts of bodies, and police speculate that one or more serial killers have for years used the woods, dunes and other isolated areas of eastern Long Island to dump victims. The skull found Friday by a man walking his dog was about 40 miles from the area where Gilbert was found and from where most of the other remains have turned up. But two full corpses, and the remains of two headless women, have turned up in the same forested area within a few miles of the skull. The women's heads were found in an area close to where Gilbert vanished. Police said it was too early to say if the skull belonged to a man or a woman, or whether it had any ties to the other apparent murder victims. Matt Samuel, who found the skull, said he initially thought the white object lying some 300 feet off the road in Manorville was a rock. When he looked more closely, he said he saw that it was a skull. "I probably walked by it a hundred times before, and I saw it kind of sticking out of the ground, and it looked unusual," Samuel told The Associated Press. "I looked a little closer and from there discovered that it was human remains," he said. "It was wrapped in bedsheets and a plastic bag, It was a whole body, but just the bones, there was trees growing up through it, so it has been there a long time." Police find more human remains in Long Island town where four others connected to serial killer previously found Daily Mail Last updated at 4:56 PM on 19th February 2012
Another human skeleton has turned up in a wooded area on the eastern end of Long Island, in a town where at least four other sets of human remains have been discovered in recent years. The latest set of bones was discovered at around 6:30 p.m. Friday in a pine barrens in Manorville. A resident of the town, Matt Samuel, said he was walking through the area with his dog when he made the find. 'I probably walked by it a hundred times before, and I saw it kind of sticking out of the ground, and it looked unusual. I looked a little closer and from there discovered that it was human remains,' he said, adding that it looked like the body had decomposed many years ago. 'It was wrapped in bed sheets and a plastic bag, It was a whole body, but just the bones, there was trees growing up through it, so it has been there a long time.' Suffolk County Police said the undergrowth suggested the body had been dumped about five years ago, but an anthropologist was being brought in to examine the site. The age, gender and identity of the person were unknown. Four other sets of remains have been found in the same area since 2000, including two belonging to Gilgo Beach victims, but police say it's still too early to tell if this body is related. The body adds to a growing list of unsolved mysteries involving corpses found in the town, some of which lies within the Long Island Central Pine Barrens, a protected forest that is one of the wilder areas on the heavily suburban island. Between 2000 and 2003, four bodies were discovered in the town's forests. Two were men, found not far from the site of Friday's discovery, near where the Long Island Expressway cuts through the town. They have never been identified. Two others were women who had been beheaded and dismembered, possibly by the same mass murderer. Suffolk police said on Saturday that it's still too soon to tell whether the Manorville bodies are connected to any other cases. The heads and other parts of the women's bodies were discovered last spring when police on the trail of a suspected serial killer searched a long stretch of beach highway on a barrier island 45 miles to the west.
That search also turned up eight other corpses, several of which belonged to missing prostitutes. Others remain unidentified, and police are still unsure how many of the killings are related. Investigators also discovered the body of an 11th person on the same stretch of barrier islands in December, but have said they believe that woman, also a missing prostitute, drowned accidentally. One of the women whose remains were partly found in Manorville has been identified as Jessica Taylor, 20, of New York City. Her torso was found about four miles from the site of Friday's discovery. Suffolk County Deputy Inspector Kevin Fallon told reporters Saturday that it was too early to tell whether the new skeleton is related to any of those other cases. Mother of escort Shannan Gilbert wants FBI to probe L.I. serial killer, says Suffolk County cops have bungled case -- Doesn't believe police account that daughter drowned New York Daily News Tuesday, December 20 2011, 12:58 PM
The mother of prostitute Shannan Gilbert demanded Tuesday that the FBI take over the Long Island serial killer probe from “clownish” local police. Mari Gilbert said she is certain her daughter was murdered like the ten others whose bodies were dumped on Gilgo Beach — and that she didn’t accidentally drown like Suffolk County cops think she did. “The investigation that’s taken place so far is comparable to something you’d find in Podunk County,” said Gilbert’s lawyer, John Ray. He accused Suffolk police of violating the civil rights of the victims by bungling the investigation and said he will file a lawsuit if the FBI doesn’t step in. Gilbert, 24, traveled from Jersey City, N.J., to meet a john in Oak Beach, L.I., before she disappeared in May 2010. Her skeletal remains were found in a marsh in Oak Beach, L.I., last week. Police believe she fled the john’s home in drug-induced hysterics, got lost, stumbled in the marsh and drowned. An autopsy is under way to determine the cause of death, though the family may request an independent post-mortem. The Suffolk police commissioner has said he does not believe Gilbert’s death is linked to the bodies found on Gilgo Beach, a few miles away — even though police were looking for her when they found those remains. Like Gilbert, most of the other victims were escorts who advertised their services on line. “I believe that Shannan was murdered and I believe she is part of the serial killer case,” said her mother. “We are tired of theories, now we need the truth.” FBI New York spokesman Jim Margolin said the agency has provided assistance to Suffolk County Police numerous times since the first bodies were found a year ago — including aerial mapping and forensic expertise. “We will continue to do that as requested,” Margolin said. For the FBI to take the lead on a case, however, would require evidence that a federal crime had been committed, he said. Suffolk County police had no immediate comment. Ray claimed local cops have not relied enough on the FBI to solve the mystery. “The police department has been clownish in their approach,” he said. Police ID bones found in Long Island as belonging to missing NJ woman Shannan Gilbert December 19, 2011 11:54 AM
(CBS/AP) OAK BEACH, N.Y. - The bones found last week in a Long Island wetland have been identified as the missing New Jersey woman whose May 2010 disappearance led to the discovery of 10 sets of remains believed to be the victims of a possible serial killer. On Saturday, Suffolk County Police confirmed that the skeletal remains found early last week are the body of Shannan Gilbert. She was a prostitute who was last seen fleeing a client's home, headed toward the marsh where her remains were discovered. A cause of death has yet to be determined. According to CBS New York, investigators found Gilbert's remains on Tuesday in a marshy area about a quarter-mile from where her cell phone, purse, jeans, shoes and lip gloss were found December 7. Suffolk County Police Department Commissioner Richard Dormer has said he believes a single serial killer is responsible for the deaths of the other 10 people whose remains were found in the area. He also believes that Gilbert's death may have been the result of accidental drowning.
"Our condolences to the Gilbert family and her friends. We hope this brings them closure and peace," he said. CBS New York reports that Gilbert's friends and family disagree with Dormer's hypothesis and have said they believe the fact that her clothing and purse were found far from her remains suggests foul play. Investigators Believe Single Serial Killer Behind Gilgo Beach Bodies NBC News Wednesday, Nov 30, 2011 | Updated 12:01 PM EST Police on Long Island now believe a single serial killer may be responsible for the 10 bodies found along a deserted oceanside highway, shifting their theory away from multiple killers as they previously believed. Police also don't believe the disappearance of Shannan Gilbert is connected to the killings. Suffolk County Police Commissioner Richard Dormer told NBC New York Tuesday that police now think a single person is behind the deaths of the human remains found on Gilgo Beach, most of them in the last year. Most were young women, but one body was a child and another was a man. "The common denominators that we have now indicate that it's possibly one killer," Dormer said in a phone interview. "We've had the same dumping ground, sex workers, young women -- even though there were the Asian male and the toddler -- but we think they were connected to the sex trade in some way. And these common denominators indicate we have the one person committing these crimes." Five of the bodies have been identified as working prostitutes. One woman's mother, Lorraine Ela, told NBC New York on Wednesday that she was not surprised by the single-killer theory, and had believed it herself since the beginning. The mother of Megan Waterman said she feels like law enforcement has not had much compassion for the families of the women. "I think the reason they don't have the compassion that they should have is all these girls were escorts," Ela said. "They're still human beings. It doesn't matter what they did for a profession -- they did not deserve to be murdered by somebody." Newsday also reported that Dormer doesn't think the death of Gilbert, a sex worker who was seen frantically running from a house in Oak Beach early May 2010, is connected. Her body has not been found. "We believe that it's just a coincidence that she went missing in Oak Beach and the bodies were found on Gilgo Beach, which is right across Ocean Parkway and farther west," he told Newsday. "The M.O. is completely different, the scenario is completely different." But Dormer acknowledged the fear there will be new victims. "That's why we are moving as fast as we possibly can to apprehend this person," he told the paper. In the interview with NBC New York, he added that another initial theory that the killer worked in law enforcement has been "debunked." "It's not unusual for people to be very familiar with how police conduct investigations, and how criminals try to evade capture," Dormer said. "That came up early in the investigation, but it's not credible at this time." Between December 2010 and April of this year, the remains of eight women, a male and a female toddler were found dumped along a stretch of Ocean Parkway. Five of the women were identified and found to have been working prostitutes. Among the remains still unidentified are the toddler and a woman believed to be her mother, and the man, also believed to be a sex worker. Initially, police said there could be as many as three killers behind the bodies, all using the brush along the parkway as a dumping ground. But, Dormer told NBC New York Tuesday, police now believe one killer is behind the dumped bodies, though even "that could change" as the investigation moves forward. Detectives also believe the killer is from Long Island. "The person has got to be comfortable with the locations," Dormer said, citing the long distances between Manorville and Gilgo Beach, and from Davis Park to Gilgo Beach. "That's the theory, that it's a Long Islander." "That's a huge distance, so somebody has to be familiar with the Long Island area and comfortable with that area," Dormer said. Dormer said the case remains "high priority," and that police are "still actively investigating this." Long Island Serial Killer Hunt: Police Release Sketches of Victims ABC News Sept. 20, 2011 Police released sketches of two unidentified victims dumped on a Long Island beach by at least one serial killer, including a man dressed as a woman and a woman who may have worked as a prostitute. The skeletal remains of a female toddler found this past April were linked by DNA to the skeletal remains of a woman found seven miles away, police said. "It is likely that these two individuals were mother and child," Suffolk County Police Commissioner Richard Dormer said today. In addition to the sketches, Dormer released pictures of jewelry and other personal details about the five unidentified sets of remains found along on a stretch of beach off of Ocean County Parkway in Long Island, N.Y. "We are hopeful that the release of this additional information will aid our investigation in helping identify the unknown victims and their killer or killers," Dormer said at a press conference. Since December of last year, New York investigators have found 10 sets of human remains in Suffolk and Nassau County. Five of those remains have been identified as prostitutes, and the rest remain a mystery.
One of the sketches released was of a slightly built male victim (above left) who police said was wearing female clothing at the time of his death. Police said the Asian man was between 17 and 23 years old and approximately 5- feet-6. The man was missing both his top and bottom molars and one of his top front teeth, police said. The death could have occurred between five and 10 years ago, police said. The toddler is non-Caucasian and was wearing hoop earrings and a rope necklace, Dormer said. She was between 16 and 32 months old. The child's adult relative had two bracelets on when she was murdered, one bracelet with Xs and Os with stones resembling diamonds and a snake chain, police said. The two could have disappeared between one and five years ago, police said. Another victim identified as Jane Doe 6 (above right) was described as having been between the ages of 18 and 35 and approximately 5-feet-2. Her head, hands and right foot were recovered on April 4. Dormer said that DNA taken from those remains were linked to a torso found in Manorville, N.Y., in November 2000. A sketch showed a Caucasian woman with hair to her shoulders. "To narrow the focus this woman would have been last seen alive in the late summer or fall in 2000…Consider that this woman may have been working as a prostitute in New York City during that time…This woman may have had a tattoo or other identifiable characteristic on her right ankle," Dormer said. A forensic artist is working on a third sketch of a woman whose legs were found in April. DNA from her remains has been linked to remains discovered on Fire Island in Nassau County, N.Y., in 1996.
Suffolk County police, who are being assisted by Nassau County cops as well as state police and the FBI, have been tight lipped about the investigation. Law enforcement sources told ABC News that all of the victims appear to have been slain elsewhere, dismembered and transported to the beaches for disposal. Four of the identified bodies were found wrapped in burlap in December 2010 and were prostitutes. They have been identified as Maureen Brainard-Barnes, Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman and Amber Lynn Costello. All of the women advertised their services on Craigslist. The most recent set of remains to be identified belonged to prostitute Jessica Taylor. In April, authorities recovered Taylor's skull and hands. The rest of her body had been found 30 miles away in Manorville, N.Y., in 2003, the same area where Jane Doe 6's torso was found. Dormer made an appeal for help from New York City's escorts. "We also want to reach out to the people in the escort business to come forward with information. We are not interested in their occupation and feel that their information will be very valuable to this investigation," Dormer said. The Suffolk Police have not identified any suspects in the killing and will not say how many killers they believe may have used the beach as a dumping ground. In December of last year, police first began scouring the pristine Gilgo Beach in the search for missing prostitute Shannan Gilbert. Her remains have not been recovered and the investigation into her disappearance is ongoing, police said. Jessica Taylor Identified as Skull on Ocean Parkway Long Island Press By Jaclyn Gallucci on May 9th, 2011
The skull of one of the victims of a likely serial killer on Long Island has been identified as 20-year-old Jessica Taylor, a woman whose dismembered body was found in Manorville in July of 2003, with her head and hands missing, and a tattoo gouged off her hip, just off Halsey-Manor Road, Suffolk County police said Monday. This new development is the first official link between two Manorville cold cases and the homicides on Ocean Parkway. Taylor’s body was found just east of Megan Waterman’s body. Waterman was the first Gilgo Beach victim to be identified by name. She disappeared in June 2010. Taylor went missing just weeks before her nude body was found by a woman walking her dog in July 2003 off a utility road just off Halsey Manor Road and the Long Island Expressway. Taylor was working as a prostitute near the Port Authority Bus Terminal in New York City and had recently left Washington, D.C. when she went missing. “We know that Ms. Taylor had lived and worked as a prostitute,” said Suffolk County District Attorney Tom Spota at a press briefing Monday morning. Taylor’s skull, hands and forearm were found in the brush of Ocean Parkway along with the bodies of nine others, beginning in December of 2010 with the discovery of the bodies of four women who advertised as escorts online near Gilgo Beach–Megan Waterman, Amber Lynn Costello, Maureen Brainard-Barnes and Melissa Barthelemy. “This investigation is not an episode of CSI or Criminal Minds that is going to be solved in an hour,” said Spota. Another of the partial remains found on Ocean Parkway have been linked to another murdered, but unidentified woman, in Manorville, whose torso was found within miles of Taylor’s body. Police are still working to identify this woman’s identity. Another of the bodies, also yet to be identified, is believed to be that of an Asian male, Spota said. The only Asian male to have gone missing on Long Island and listed in the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System is Yim Yeung Tsui, of New Hyde Park, who went missing on August 26, 1998. Yeung Tsui was 140 lbs, 5’8? and a student in his third year at Stony Brook University when he went missing. He was last seen at 8:30 a.m. in New Hyde Park. He was 20 years old when he disappeared. Spota also said the last of the four most recent bodies found on Ocean Parkway is that of a child between 18 and 24 months old and wrapped in a blanket, found 200 feet away from Taylor’s skull, police say, but the child is not believed to be connected to Taylor or any of the other victims at this time. The child’s death has also not been confirmed a homicide at this time. Spota said the killer went to great lengths to hide the identities of Taylor and the unidentified woman in Manorville, but did not make any attempts to hide the identities of the four women originally found near Gilgo Beach. He also said that the Manorville murders are significantly different than the four women originally found near Gilgo. Spota also said that the murders of the Asian man and the child, believed to be a girl, do not appear to be related to the murders of any of the women. “It is clear that the area in and around Gilgo Beach has been used to discard human remains for some period of time,” Spota said. “As distasteful and disturbing as that is, there is no evidence that all of these remains are the work of a single killer.” Homicide Squad detectives have not yet released the results of high-resolution images taken by FBI aircraft that may indicate additional areas that need to be searched. Police made the first discoveries while searching for 24-year-old Shannan Gilbert of Jersey City, New Jersey, a woman who advertised escorting services online and was last seen after meeting a client in Oak Beach. Investigators are still searching for her. Police have not said if they believe these murders are connected to other unidentified and dismembered homicide victims found on Long Island. A handless, headless, legless torso was found in Hempstead Lake State Park during the summer of 1997. She was wrapped in a black plastic garbage bag and stuffed into a dark-green Rubbermaid container with a floral pillow sham and frayed red towel. The only identifying mark on her body: a bitten heart-shaped peach tattoo on her left breast with two drops underneath. Although police said it was unlikely due to the most recent undisclosed evidence, investigators are also looking into the possibility these homicides could be related to the four unsolved homicides of four prostitutes found murdered behind the Golden Key Motel in Atlantic City, New Jersey in a drainage ditch in November 2006. Molly Jean Dilts, 20, Kim Raffo, 35, Tracy Ann Roberts, 23, and Barbara Breidor, 42, were found on their stomachs in the water by two women walking behind the motel. They were all strangled. They were all mothers who left young children behind. CRAIGSLIST RIPPER VICTIMS
Internet threats to NY hooker weeks before she was 'killed by Craigslist ripper' Mail Online 18th April 2011
Members of an Internet sex forum hatched a ‘revenge’ plot against one of the ‘Craigslist ripper’ victims, just weeks before she went missing. Online messages show that Amber Lynn Costello was threatened by an angry client eight weeks before she disappeared. The message board members became heated in July 2010 when one man claimed he was robbed by men who barged into the home of Miss Costello, 28, after he had paid $200 to have sex with her. ‘Tell her we are all coming over there with baseball bats’ wrote one member in a series of ominous threats posted alongside Miss Costello’s address, after the alleged incident. The threatening messages started eight weeks before the twice-divorced drug addict disappeared on September 2. Her body was found in December dumped in a cloth potato sack alongside the remains of three other victims on Long Island. The bodies of the four women were discovered around 500 feet apart along the same road that runs the length of Gilgo Island, a southern sandback of Long Island. All had been strangled and stuffed in sacks. They are all thought to be victims of the macabre killer who has become known as ‘The Craigslist Ripper’. The online threats first started on July 11 2010 when a message board member using the name Humiliatrix69 raged that he had been ‘suckered’ by Miss Costello in the alleged incident at her home in West Babylon, New York.‘Seemed really friendly,’ his angry post read. ‘Provided the donation. She slipped away and got comfortable, and so did I. Then there was a knock at the door.’ Humiliatrix69 claimed two men, one of whom said he was Miss Costello’s boyfriend, rushed at him armed with baseball bats before fighting with him on the front lawn.‘ I made it clear that it wasn't over, so after posting this... I gotta go handle this,’ he wrote.Shortly after, a fellow member called italyrider asked for her address and posted: ‘No one from this board needs to be involved. I have friends who can take care of this s**t.’ Humiliatrix69 replied with Miss Costello's address, a description of her home, and her phone number. He also shared raunchy pictures that he had taken from her advert on newyorkbackpage.com where she advertised herself as a ‘Southern girl’ named ‘Carolina’, who was ‘short, sexy & a lot of fun’. Humiliatrix69 wrote on the forums: ‘I want to be spiteful and get revenge, I will go by there tonight.‘ I could seriously do some time for the things I want to do to this provider and her boyfriend.’ But he then admitted to having cold feet and said revenge would not be worth it. Three days later, another member using the nickname Morrie wrote: ‘A friend of ours told me today that “You won't hear from those 2 girls anymore!”’ Humiliatrix69 replied: ‘Thanks for all the help.’ On January 24, the message board exploded with talk about Miss Costello again after Suffolk County Police announced the identities of the ‘Craigslist ripper’ victims. Humiliatrix69 wrote: ‘Hey, I posted my experience in frustration and anger cause I got ripped off, but I wouldn't wish death on no one.’He added, ‘Hate to say it, karma is truly a b****.’ The homepage of Longislanderotic.com lists it as a place for ‘escorts, adult entertainment, massage parlors, strip clubs, sex.’ Joseph Palminteri, 63, who lived across the street from Miss Costello’s home, told a U.S. newspaper that the police were called to the home ‘too many times to count’. ‘It was always something. Lots of screaming, lots of yelling, lots of drugs,’ he told the Daily News. ‘Sometime last July a naked man was banging on my door at 10 at night. He came from [Miss Costello's] house. He was screaming, “Don't let them kill me! He's going to kill me!”’ Craigslist Long Island serial killer update: Details of murders emerge Cindy Adams April 13th, 2011 1:32 am ET Melville, NY - After a human skull and additional remains were found Monday just east of Jones Beach State Park, details were released Tuesday regarding the Craiglist Long Island serial killer case. In total, 10 sets of remains have been found thus far, eight of them along Gilgo Beach in Suffolk County. Sources with intimate
knowledge of the case informed the Boston Herald about
significant details regarding the case, including more
information regarding the unusual remains found.
Due to the discovery of remains in both Suffolk County and Nassau County, police are investigating the possibility that there may be more than one killer involved in the slayings. Police have also publicly theorized that the killer may be involved with law enforcement in some manner due to his apparent knowledge of police technique and procedure. Serial Killer: More human remains, including skull, found on Long Island Examiner.com April 12th, 2011 4:37 pm ET LONG ISLAND, New York -- The search for a serial killer in the Long Island, New York area has intensified as two more sets of human remains were found Monday. ABC’s Good Morning America reports that police are narrowing in on several persons of interest. More human remains were found on Monday, not far from where eight others were found in December and earlier this month.Police believe the killer may actually be living a normal life in the Long Island area. Searchers face difficult search conditions as they press forward to try to uncover if there are more bodies in the area. They are dealing with thick brush, poison ivy, and ticks. GMA reports it’s a great place to dump human bodies. In December police were looking for one woman – 24-year-old Shannan Gilbert – who went missing last May. They gave up searching due to weather conditions when one lone officer went to the area to train a cadaver dog. It was this officer who made the gruesome discovery of human remains. Police at that time found a total of four sets of human remains, including the one found by the officer training his dog. All four were prostitutes who advertised their services on Craigslist. Families are coming forward stating their loved ones were strangled. All of their bodies were buried and wrapped in burlap, IrishCentral.com reports. The women found were identified by police as Megan Waterman, Maureen Brainard-Barnes, Amanda Costello, and Melissa Barthelemy. According to the New York Post the mothers of two of the women found in December, Lorraine Ela and Lynn Barthelemy, have received the death certificates for their daughters. The certificates confirmed that the women died of "homicidal asphyxia" or strangulation. Another four sets of human remains were found last week. Those remains have not yet been identified, though police say they are not those of Shannan. They have her DNA so they can quickly rule her out. Police now say among the four sets of remains found last week, one belongs to a young child. It was reported that some prostitutes who have young children are sometimes forced to bring them along when responding to calls. ABC News reports, “It’s not uncommon that these women have children. Did he get into a situation with one of them that her child was and so he just disposed of the child as another witness,” ABC News consultant and former FBI investigator Brad Garrett said.
As of Monday police said a human skull found brings the total to nine sets of human remains found since December. Others predict that number could be higher. IrishCentral.com also reports that in 2006 the bodies of four prostitutes were found floating face-down in a drainage ditch behind Golden Key Motel in West Atlantic City. The women killed were Barbara Breidor, 42, Molly Jean Dilts, 20, Kim Raffao, 35, and Tracy Ann Roberts, 23. Their murderer was never found. Two of the women were strangled and the cause of death of the other two could not be established because they had been in the water too long. In Atlantic City serial murders, a new lead, a solid connection Examiner.com April 12th, 2011 3:58 pm ET
A connection between the Atlantic City serial murders and those being investigated in Long Island, New York runs through murder victim Kim Raffo, a prostitute who was in both places during a serial killer rampage in 2006. In the month before Raffo’s strangled body was found in Atlantic City, she spent five weeks in a Jericho motel only 25 miles from Gilgo Beach. Up to 10 bodies were found on the beach, they too appear to be murder victims. Raffo may have known her killer and according to L.I. police, they may now have a solid lead. Raffo worked as a prostitute in Atlantic City and possibly during her days on Long Island. She had grown tired of her life and addiction to crack cocaine, according to her estranged husband Huge Auslander, who took her to Jericho. They wanted to get their children back from foster care, he said. They argued and Raffo left on a bus back to Atlantic City, according to Auslander. She was never heard from again. Her body was found three days after her murder behind the Golden Key Motel. The location is known as a place where prostitutes and drug dealers see their customers. Her grave became a drainage ditch behind the hotel on a dark and grim service road. She was laid out with three other murdered prostitutes. Her shoes had been taken and her face was turned towards Atlantic City. The similarities between the cause of death, strangulation, and the number of victims laid out in a graveyard style senario, has not been lost on investigators who are not even sure if they have found all the murder victims to date on Long Island. Authorities are now questioning whether the killer used several methods of murder and display in order to confuse authorities or if more than one murderer is involved in the gruesome discoveries. Police search again for clues in what may be two or more serial killer cases 10:15 a.m. CDT, April 12, 2011 TOBAY BEACH, LONG ISLAND (PIX 11)— Police searched dense marshland by helicopter near Jones Beach on Tuesday, looking for new clues in what may be the case of two or more serial killers dumping victims' bodies near the ocean near the Suffolk - Nassau County line. Investigators may also be closer to nabbing a suspect or suspects. The developments come after searchers made two different finds of human remains on Monday in Nassau County. They found a skull in a bird sanctuary at Tobay Beach, and more remains about a mile-and-a-half away, near the side of Ocean Parkway near Jones Beach. The discoveries bring to ten the potential number of bodies found along Ocean Parkway since December, when investigators carried out the first of three different searches. In that operation, between Oak Beach and Gilgo Beach in Suffolk County, searchers turned up the bodies of 4 women, all prostitutes who advertised online. Megan Waterman, Maureen Brainard- Barnes, Melissa Barthelemy, and Amber Lynn Costello may have all been strangled, and their remains were wrapped in burlap. Then, in between late March and earlier this month, cops found the remains of four more victims near Gilgo Beach. Their remains were not wrapped in burlap, as the prostitutes' remains were. Instead, some of the body parts found in the last few weeks were in black plastic bags. Wrapped in a blanket, however, were the remains of a child under five years old. The difference in how the bodies found in each search were left implies that there may be two different serial killer cases. Acting Nassau County Police Commissioner Thomas Krumpter told PIX 11 News that he could not comment on that possibility, citing an ongoing investigation. He also said that he cannot say anything about information from unidentified police sources indicating that there are persons of interest in these cases. Police Find New Bones in Long Island Serial-Murder Search WSJ.com Tuesday, April 12, 2011 New York New Bones in Killing Probe Skull and Remains Near Beach Could Be Nos. 9 and 10 in Suspected Serial Case Investigators probing the deaths of eight people found a ninth set of remains and a skull Monday in the scrub brush lining a string of Long Island beaches, possibly widening a suspected serial-killer case with prostitutes as victims. The discovery of the remains and the skull, about 1.5 miles apart and both believed to be human, adds to authorities' suspicion of a serial killer or killers. It would be one of the biggest cases in New York City and adjoining Long Island in decades, exceeding David Berkowitz—the "Son of Sam" killer who terrorized New York City in 1977 before being convicted of six murders—and approaching Joel Rifkin, who confessed to 17 slayings after his arrest in 1993. The discoveries came as the search of a barrier island that includes two New York counties moved west into Nassau County. On Thursday, police on the eastern, Suffolk County side of the island wrapped up their second search, during which four bodies, which have yet to be identified, were found. The first search, by Suffolk County police in December, turned up the skeletal remains of four women in the brush off Ocean Parkway. "Collectively we want to bring to justice this animal that has obviously taken the lives of a number of people," said Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano. After the first four bodies were discovered in December, snowstorms caused authorities to suspend search efforts for more than three months. When they resumed the hunt, they found another body in March and three more last week. Police will now try to determine whether Monday's discoveries are connected to the bodies found in Suffolk County. If they are, only Mr. Rifkin, an unemployed Long Island landscaper arrested with a dead woman in the back of his pickup truck, will have taken more victims in recent memory. Suffolk County Police Commissioner Richard Dormer said Thursday the police were suspending their hunt for bodies left along Gilgo, Cedar and Oak beaches after conducting "a very exhaustive, comprehensive search." "We have pulled out all the stops," Mr. Dormer said. Mr. Dormer said that while the police wait for the medical examiner's office to identify the most recently discovered bodies, they are focusing on a "common denominator," the fact that the first four women all advertised on Craigslist. "Suffice it to say we're checking into any contacts [the identified victims have had] over the last years and months. Technology certainly is something we're looking into," said Mr. Dormer, who wouldn't discuss other details of the investigation. Now there are seven: Growing horror as police find bodies of three MORE 'Craigslist killer' victims on Long Island beach Mail Online 11:23 PM on 4th April 2011
Searchers scouring the dense undergrowth of a New York beach for victims of a suspected serial killer have made the gruesome discovery of three more bodies, authorities revealed today. The chilling find brings the total of victims police believe were murdered by the 'Craigslist killer' to at least seven. An eighth body has also been found but investigators have not officially connected it to the case yet. The search was originally sparked by the disappearance of a New Jersey prostitute named Shannan Gilbert. Despite the discovery of seven other bodies, she has not yet been found. An eighth body has also been found in the area, along the highway that leads to Jones Beach. But police say they have not positively connected it to the serial killer yet. That victim has not yet been identified, but it is not believed to be Shannan Gilbert. Gilbert, 24, was last seen in Oak Beach on May 1, 2010, after apparently meeting a client she had booked through Craigslist. The most recent human remains were found on Cedar Beach, only half a mile away from where the other bodies were found on Oak Beach, Long Island. The bodies of the four other women, who also worked as Craigslist escorts and were in their 20s, were found along the same highway by police searching for Gilbert. Suffolk County police said that there were substantial similarities in how the four women discovered in December died but declined to reveal their causes of death at the time. The four dead prostitutes were found in December in the area, a four-foot-tall tangle of sea grass punctuated by scrubby pine trees. Each of those bodies had been wrapped in burlap - a type of sack-like cloth - and were reportedly found clustered within five hundred feet of the other nearest victim. It has not yet been revealed if the new bones were wrapped in the same way. Authorities believe the women were killed at a different location but then their bodies were dumped on the Long Island beach. It sits on a narrow strip of land that divides the Great South Bay from the Atlantic Ocean. Fifth body near Oak Beach, NY not missing woman Shannan Gilbert; Cops fear serial killer CBS News April 1, 2011 (CBS/AP/WCBS) NEW YORK - Authorities say a fifth body found along Gilgo Beach, near Oak Beach on New York's Long Island, is not that of missing New Jersey prostitute Shannan Gilbert, who was last seen in the area last May. Suffolk County police found the remains Tuesday west of Cedar Beach about a mile from where the bodies of four other women, wrapped in burlap, were discovered by cadaver-sniffing dogs last December, reports CBS station WCBS. A police spokeswoman said Thursday that authorities determined the remains were not those of Gilbert, 24, of Jersey City, N.J. An investigation into Gilbert's disappearance continuing. Police did not say whether they had identified the latest victim, gender, or whether the death is connected to the others. Forensics teams already have DNA matches to all four other victims found in the same area: 24-year-old Melissa Barthelemy of Buffalo, 25-year-old Maureen Brainard-Barnes of Connecticut, 27-year-old Amber Lynn Costello of North Babylon, Long Island and 22-year-old Megan Waterman of Scarborough, Maine. Police suspect a serial killer may be responsible for the deaths. The bodies were discovered during a search for Gilbert. Gilbert had arranged to meet a client in Oak Beach last May. A resident of the gated seaside enclave has told authorities a woman believed to be Gilbert came to his door around 4:45 a.m. on May 1, pleading for help. The man said when he attempted to call police, the woman fled. A few moments later, an unidentified man in a sport utility vehicle drove past the house and said he was looking for the woman, but then took off. Neither the woman nor the man was seen by the neighbor again. The client Gilbert had arranged to meet was investigated by police but is not believed to be a suspect in her disappearance. Police: Waterman, 3 others slain by serial killer Maine Sunday Telegram Monday, February 14, 2011
YAPHANK, N.Y. — Four young women who police believe were slain by a serial killer, including a mother from Scarborough, all worked as prostitutes and advertised online, investigators said Monday. Investigators did not identify a suspect or say how the women were killed, but they were looking into what clients the victims might have met shortly before they disappeared. One of the women was reported missing nearly 3½ years ago; another was seen as recently as September. The four bodies were found in early December, strewn along a quarter-mile of marshy grassland on a beachfront strip on Long Island. Last week, authorities identified one of the victims as Megan Waterman of Scarborough, who advertised on Craigslist as an escort. She was 22 when she disappeared during a stay in Hauppauge, N.Y., on the weekend of June 5. On Monday, the other women were identified by law enforcement as Maureen Brainard-Barnes of Norwich, Conn., Melissa Barthelemy of Erie County, N.Y., and Amber Lynn Costello of North Babylon, on Long Island. Brainard-Barnes was last seen in Manhattan on July 9, 2007; Barthelemy reportedly was living in the Bronx when she disappeared on July 12, 2009, police said. Costello was last seen in North Babylon on Sept. 2.Brainard-Barnes was 25 when she disappeared; Barthelemy was 24 and Costello was 27. District Attorney Thomas Spota said he believes the women were victims of a serial killer. The bodies "probably were in that location for some period of time," he said. Investigators believe the women were killed elsewhere and their bodies were dumped along the beach highway. Police Commissioner Richard Dormer, who had backed away from early assertions that a serial killer was involved, agreed with Spota. "What activities these victims may have engaged in prior to their murders does not matter," Dormer said Monday. "They were young women whose lives were cut tragically short." Spota said "the actual cause of deaths (appears) to be substantially similar" and "it appears the same person or persons are responsible." He said he would appeal to women who work in the escort business to come forward if they have details about the slain women. Waterman disappeared after going to New York on Memorial Day weekend with Akeem Cruz, a 21-year-old Brooklyn man described as her boyfriend. Cruz is now serving a 20-month sentence in the Maine Correctional Center for drug trafficking. Police found the first body on Dec. 11 just steps from the Ocean Parkway, which leads to the popular Jones Beach State Park. The other three bodies, including Waterman's, were found two days later during a follow-up investigation. Police were looking for another missing Craigslist escort when they happened upon the bodies near the beach. They have since said that person, a woman from New Jersey, was not among the bodies recovered there. That case is still under investigation, authorities said Monday. More prank phone calls revealed in murder of craigslist hooker Melissa Barthelemy NYDailyNews.com Friday, January 28th 2011, 4:00 AM
The teen sister of a slain hooker said Thursday that she received six menacing calls from a suspected killer saying her missing sibling was "a whore." Melissa Barthelemy's 16-year-old sister, Amanda, got the first call on July 16, 2009, four days after her sister was last seen. The calls continued through Aug. 26 - and then abruptly stopped. Police had
initially said Barthelemy's relatives received just three
calls, but the family revealed the additional
conversations at a press conference yesterday in Amherst,
N.Y. "The last call was on Aug. 26, and they were always to Amanda," said Jeffrey Martina, who is engaged to Barthelemy's mother, Lynn. During one call, Lynn snatched the phone from her daughter's hand, but the caller hung up after hearing her voice. Amanda said the calls made her feel "terrible." "It wasn't something that should've been said to a 16-year-old," her mother said. The family wouldn't discuss the content of the creepy calls, describing them simply as crude. But a law enforcement source said the caller taunted the family, saying chillingly, "Do you know what your sister is doing? She's a whore." Craiglist serial killer? Cops ID 3 more missing prostitutes found dumped along Long Island beach NYDailyNews.com Monday, January 24th 2011, 7:58 PM Cops fear a craigslist serial killer is on the loose after confirming that three missing hookers advertised online were among the bodies dumped on a Long Island beach. Suffolk County cops on Monday identified the skeletal remains as Melissa Barthelemy, 24, who lived in the Bronx; Amber Lynn Costello, 27, of North Babylon, L.I., and Maureen Brainard-Barnes, 25, of Norwich, Conn. It appears the seaside sicko may be hunting a certain type of prostitute - all three were tiny women under 5 feet and about 100 pounds. Their identification came a week after cops identified a fourth body found on Gilgo Beach as Megan Waterman, 22, a Maine sex worker missing since the summer. She was 5-feet-5 and 150 pounds. Similarities in how the women were killed and dumped, their body types and ages, and use of craigslist to advertise has fueled the theory that a lone maniac is the culprit. "I think it fits within the known definition of what a serial killer would be," Suffolk County District Attorney Thomas Spota said. Authorities have not said how the women were killed, but a source said, "There are substantial similarities in terms of the causes of death." Costello, who disappeared last Sept. 2, recently returned to the New York area from Clearwater, Fla., where she turned to prostitution to support a drug habit, a friend said. "She didn't want to do this. The drugs just took over," the friend said. "I talked to her maybe six months ago and she said she was making a living on craigslist and Backpage." She described Costello as "a beautiful-natured person" who "trusted anybody." "That's why she probably ended up the way she did. She had no fear," the friend said. "This is really sad." Arrest records in Florida said Costello stood just 4-feet-10 and weighed 100 pounds. "She was a very small girl," her friend said. "She had a body like a child." Barthelemy, who had been missing since July 2009, grew up in Buffalo and moved to the city to be a stripper about five years ago, her family said. "She's a feisty, little thing. She loved that fast life," mom Lynn Barthelemy described her daughter in a 2009 interview with a Buffalo TV station. She recalled warning her daughter, who was just 4-feet-11 and weighed 95 pounds, to take care. "Before we hung up I always said, 'I love you. Be careful. If you get in trouble, it's not like you're right around the block. It's going to take me seven hours to get to you,' " she said. A neighbor at the Soundview apartment where Barthelemy was last seen said she disappeared one night and never returned, leaving behind eight cats and all her belongings. "Her mom came later with a bunch of detectives and emptied the apartment. She was really devastated," said Alberto Gonzalez. Brainard-Barnes has been missing since July 2007, cops said. A missing persons bulletin at the time of her disappearance listed her as 4-feet-11 and 105 pounds. Craigslist does not accept sex-for-sale listings anymore.

COMMENTS (4/17/11): Only now can I claim yet another fulfillment of this prediction ... and this one is getting even more media attention than the Kensington Strangler. The reason I have had to wait, since December 2010 in fact, is that the causes of death had not yet been revealed by police. However, we now know that all the women found, all of them prostitutes, were strangled. In the case of the Kensington Strangler, the bodies of the three murder victims were intact ... they had only died within hours of being found. Establishing cause of death was reasonably quick. And there was also the testimony of the three survivors who had been left for dead. In this situation, however, the bodies were buried and decomposed. Even after forensics were able to establish cause of death, police were slow putting out the information. A few days ago, however, families of the dead women were notified that their daughters and sisters had been asphyxiated by strangulation.
There was also the question as to whether this killer was still committing new murders. That has now been confirmed with the discovery of eight new bodies and recent phone calls by the killer to the victims families. Thus far, the bodies of nine, and possibly ten, victims have been found on Long Island beaches ... and suspicions are now surfacing that the killer may be responsible for the unsolved strangulation murders of four prostitutes in Atlantic City back in 2006.
You see I have another prediction on this website that a serial killer would be captured and charged in August 2010 with a number of unsolved murders and abductions, "cold cases" as they are called, from 2007, 2008, and 2009 and possibly farther back. It appears that this was partially fulfilled when eight "cold cases" of murdered women and a 12-year-old girl, all of them raped and strangled, were linked to serial killer Rodney Alcala, 66, known as the dating-game killer. Alcala has been in custody since 1979 for other serial murders he had committed. In addition a book of photographs of young women who posed for Alcala was found, and some of these women were missing. Besides this, there are a number of unsolved murders of young women, one of them Morgan Harrington, in the region of Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia from those three years that may be linked to a killer who has yet to be captured.
When I first read about the Long Island murders, I wasn't sure if the killer was still active or if he was dead or in prison for some other crime. One of the first four murder victims apparently was killed back in 2007, another in 2009, and the other two in June and September 2010. The investigation itself evolved out of an intensive search for a missing woman named Shannan Gilbert who disappeared in May 2010. So, was this a case of someone eventually being charged with past crimes only or someone responsible for recently past murders who is still killing? We know that the killer made six menacing phone calls to Barthelemy's sister, calling her dead sister, who disappeared July 16, 2009, a "whore." The last call was made on August 26, 2010. Also, as it turns out, he apparently is still adding to the body count which is now 10. Therefore these murders are active. And he is a strangler.
So, here we are, facing the worst serial killer quite possibly in history, a strangler as predicted. I did say some of his murders might come to light early ... in the fall of 2010 ... and they did. And apparently he is not finished, nor has he been captured. This could go on well into next year ... even into 2013.
Therefore, this is a second PREDICTION FULFILLED and a PREDICTION IN PROGRESS.

awaits arrest in killing that happened in shadow of
Kensington strangler cases Philly.com July 07, 2011 | By Allison Steele, Inquirer Staff Writer
The rumor spread quickly through Philadelphia in December: The Kensington strangler had claimed another victim. Allison Edwards, 22, died in Juniata Park, not far from where Elaine Goldberg and Nicole Piacentini had been killed weeks before. Like them, Edwards was young and battling drug addiction, and ended up in the wrong place at the wrong time. Edwards had so much in common with the strangler's victims that it seemed logical to assume that she was one. But the circumstances of her death were markedly different from the strangler's modus operandi, and investigators soon ruled out any connection. The city's media spotlight swung away, and within a few weeks the strangler struck again, killing Casey Mahoney, 27. Seven months later, Antonio Rodriguez is behind bars and facing the death penalty in the killings of the three women. Edwards' killer has not been caught. That doesn't mean the case has grown cold. In the days after the killing, police identified a possible suspect - someone whom Philadelphia Police Capt. James Clark, head of the Homicide Unit, described last week as a "strong" person of interest. "We're building a case against this individual," Clark said. "We're hopeful that we will be able to make an arrest in the near future." While much of the city followed the case of the strangler last winter, Edwards' mother, Karen Emery, tried in vain to keep her daughter in the public eye. She collected more than $1,600 for a reward for information leading to the killer's arrest, created a Facebook page, and held vigils at the crime scene. "It felt like she was just forgotten," said Emery, 49. "We don't want that." Emery lives in a ranch-style home on a quiet, tree-lined street in Levittown. Edwards last walked out of the house a few days before she died. Photographs of her are everywhere, showing her shiny blond hair, lip piercing, and wholesome, bright smile. Edwards' life was filled with setbacks, but she died when Emery was hopeful about her future. "Any death would have been hard," Emery said. "But knowing she was stolen, after all the times she fought to live - that's hardest to bear." ... Antonio Rodriguez 'Kensington Strangler' Suspect Had Sex With Dead Victims -- Victims 'Enjoyed' Being Choked During Sex
MWZA.com Monday, February 11, 2011 In a grisly follow up to his gruesome murder spree, Kensington Strangler suspect Antonio Rodriguez claims to have had sex with his victims after he’d killed them and prosecutors are seeking the death penalty. During a preliminary hearing where police read Rodriguez’ confessions that were signed by him they detailed his horrid admissions. The three women Rodiriguez is accused of killing were Elaine Goldberg 21, Nicole Piacentini 35, and Casey Mahoney 27, during a time period between November and December of 2010. The murders alarmed residents of Philadelphia’s Kensington area and fears of vigilante justice abounded as residents swore they’d find the killer of the three women. Rodriguez’s confessions stated that the three women were prostitutes who agreed to have sex with him and then he murdered them. Rodriguez did state that he didn’t mean to kill Elaine Goldberg however. Rodriguez stated that Goldberg wanted him to choke her and use both hands but the encounter ended in her death. He then states that he realized she’d died and he panicked and fled. More grisly details were laid out by the suspect as he continued. He states that Piacentini whom he met two weeks later enjoyed choking as well and that he was “pretty sure” she was dead from the act. The same fate was dealt to Mahoney whom he admitted he punched several times. He’s charged with three counts of murder and rape. 'Kensington Strangler' suspect Antonio Rodriguez: I had sex with victims after they were dead By Michael
Sheridan Thursday, February 10th 2011, 1:42 PM Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for the man who allegedly has confessed to being Philadelphia’s dreaded Kensington Strangler, officials said Wednesday. The announcement was made during a preliminary hearing in which police read confessions signed by the suspected killer, Antonio Rodriguez. In the statements he admitted to killing three women, as well as having sex with at least two of them after they were dead. The Kensington Strangler is believed to have murdered Elaine Goldberg, 21, Nicole Piacentini, 35, and Casey Mahoney, 27, between November and December of last year. The slayings sparked fears of vigilante justice in Philadelphia’s Kensington area, where outraged residents had vowed to catch the killer. In the confessions, Rodriguez allegedly claims to have approached the women as if they were prostitutes. They agreed to have sex with him, but each encounter took a violent turn. Rodriguez said he didn't mean to kill Goldberg. The nursing student was found dead in early November. "I asked her if she liked to be choked, and she said yes," the confession said, according to the Philadelphia Weekly. “I began to choke her with my left hand, and she told me to use both hands." Shortly after that, it states, she stopped moving. "She didn't let me know ... she couldn't breathe." When he realized the woman was dead, Rodriguez allegedly panicked and ran, although the confession suggests he may have continued to have sex with her body after she died. As for Piacentini, who was found dead less than two weeks later, the confession states Rodriguez didn't stop even after he was "pretty sure" she was dead from the choking. "I wasn't done with her," he said. Mahoney was found dead on Dec. 15. Rodriguez allegedly admits he punched her several times, choked her until "she wasn't moving anymore" and violated her body. Rodriguez is charged with three counts of murder and rape. The 22-year-old was arrested in January after an anonymous caller tipped off police to his location minutes after a press conference naming him as a suspect. Along with his confessions, prosecutors said DNA evidence links him to the crimes. Strangler suspect confesses to four murders NewsWorks January 18, 2011 A new report from police says the Kensington Strangler suspect has confessed -- to four murders. Antonio Rodriguez confessed to police after being arrested yesterday. NBC10 reports Rodriguez has admitted to four murders, though his DNA has only been linked to three. It's still unclear if he's the person responsible for choking of three surviving women. Philly.com has also reported a confession. Kensington Strangler Suspect Antonio Rodriguez Confesses
Gather January 18, 2011 01:15 PM EST The Kensington Strangler is off the streets. Philadelphia police arrested who they believe to be the Kensington Strangler suspect on Monday night. Now, Antonio Rodriguez has confessed to murdering four people. Kensington Strangler Suspect’s DNA Match Leads to Arrest According to a Philadelphia Police news conference on Monday night, they believed there to be a DNA link between 21-year-old Antonio Rodriguez and the three murders that occurred in the Kensington neighborhood back in November and December. As the police were giving a news conference about the Rodriguez, a 911 call came in with word about his location. He was quickly found and taken into custody. The mayor, Michael Nutter, seemed to be cautiously optimistic about the arrest. He discussed the fact that until the DNA tests are 100% confirm that Rodriquez is the person Philly police have been looking for he will not be too comfortable. "I'll also have that greater sense of comfort knowing that we absolutely, positively, 100 percent have the person off the street that we've been looking for some time," said the mayor. Luckily for the mayor, he didn't have to wait long to have that 'greater sense of comfort.' Kensington Strangler Suspect Confesses, Bringing Relief On Tuesday, Antonio Rodriguez confessed to murdering four people, including the three that investigators had linked together. The Philadelphia Police seem to have gotten their Kensington Strangler. This entire serial killer scare started with the rape and murder of Casey Mahoney in December that was later tied by DNA to the November killings of two others, Elaine Goldberg and Nicole Piacentini. The November and December attacks occurred in an area of Kensington that were well known for their drug and prostitution problems. Over recent years, the neighborhood began to revitalize as younger artists and professionals began to make the area their home. If this is the right person, then it may go a long way to relieving the tension that residents in the area have. This would be a huge win for the community to have a serial killer off of the streets. The Mayor and Philadelphia Police should come out of looking great, now that Antonio Rodriguez has confessed to being the Kensington Strangler. They were able to work on tips from the area, and when they had zeroed in on a suspect, were able to get word out to the community to find their man and arrest him in a matter of a few minutes time. Getting a quick confession is just an added bonus! Police arrest suspected Philadelphia strangler
January 18, 2011 -- Updated 0205 GMT (1005 HKT) (CNN) -- Police arrested suspected serial strangler Antonio Rodriguez on Monday after DNA testing linked him to the sexual assault and murder of at least three women in a central Philadelphia neighborhood, according to Detective Justin Frank. "We're hopeful that this will put an end to this," Frank said. The announcement came just moments after a press conference in which Philadelphia Police Capt. James J. Clark announced a "major break" in the case, with forensic evidence putting Rodriguez at the scene of the three homicides. Clark had said Rodriguez is a homeless man considered "extremely dangerous. Rodriguez, 21, is suspected of killing Casey Mahoney, 27; Elaine Goldberg, 21; and Nicole Piacentini, 35, Clark said. It is not clear how Rodriguez was located. Last month, a 33-year-old woman was pulled into an alley and may have been the victim of the same attacker, police said. Despite being choked, punched and hit on the head with a brick, she escaped her assailant, who fled from the scene, according to the police report. We're looking for a serial killer, Philadelphia authorities say -- DNA has linked the slayings of three women December 22, 2010 - 0401 GMT (1201 HKT) (CNN) -- DNA has linked the slayings of three women, Philadelphia police said Tuesday night in announcing they are looking for a serial killer. Authorities are offering a $30,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those involved in recent homicides and assaults on women. "We now know that this predator is responsible for three murders in this area," task force Capt. James Clark said at a news conference. The reward offer comes as police and federal agents petition neighborhood residents for information in their joint investigation of the three killings and three other attacks on women in the Kensington area of Philadelphia. The partially clothed body of the latest victim, Casey Mahoney, 27, was discovered December 15, according to police spokeswoman Jillian Russell. Mahoney had been sexually assaulted and strangled. Police say Elaine Goldberg, 21, and Nicole Piacentini, 35, were killed in strangulation attacks in November. Analysis showed the three were killed by the same assailant, Clark said. Previously, DNA from the scene of the two earlier homicides was found to be from a single person, police spokesman Ray Evers said. Authorities believe the attacker likely is still in the 10-block radius where the attacks occurred. "We have detectives working day and night, following every tip," Clark said. "It's time to bring this offender to justice," said Police Commissioner Charles H. Ramsey. "Help us stop this brutal violence from occurring in the future." The location, the similar nature of the attacks and the descriptions of the attacker led police to suspect they are connected. The victims all were choked, police said. But authorities say they lack corroborating DNA evidence linking the assaults to the homicides because too much time had elapsed between the initial two assaults in October and when the victims notified police. "The assault victims did not come forward until police began combing the Kensington (neighborhood) for suspects and potential victims following the November homicides," Evers said. Federal agents joined the investigation earlier this month, bringing in resources from the FBI's behavioral analysis unit, violent criminal apprehension program, and National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime. "The investigation appears to be limited to Philadelphia," said FBI spokesman J.J. Klaver. "This could change if there are any indications that the subject or subjects responsible for the crimes ... are linked to similar crimes elsewhere." The assault victims described the attacker as an African-American male in his early 20s, weighing between 160 and 170 pounds. Police said a third assault victim was pulled into an alley earlier this month. Despite being choked, punched and hit on the head with a brick, the 33-year-old woman escaped, and her assailant fled the scene, according to a police report. All victims were white females involved in prostitution and narcotics, police said. Reward To Be Offered In Kensington Case
MyFox Philadelphia December 20, 2010 There are some new developments in the Kensington strangler murder investigation. Fox 29’s Dave Schratwieser reports that, according to sources, a $25,000 reward could be announced as early as tomorrow. The reward comes as police continue to scramble, looking for what now appears to be a serial killer, a predator who they believe has not only killed two women, but also attacked several others. Homicide detectives are also tracking down leads and tips as they wait for DNA that could link that 3rd murder victim, Casey Mahoney, to the other two women who were also found strangled last month. That DNA analysis is expected to be completed within the next two days. Dave also reports that as of this evening, one of the FBI profilers may travel from Quantico to Philadelphia to meet with investigators and possibly visit the crime scenes. No word if this is happening this week, or next week. More police, Guardian Angels patrol Kensington for strangler
By
Elizabeth Fiedler December 20, 2010 A man who has strangled at least two women continues to haunt the Kensington neighborhood in Philadelphia. Police are waiting for DNA test results to see whether a third victim should be added to the list. William Fleisher is the director of Keystone Intelligence Network, a private investigative/security consulting firm in Philadelphia. He said the Kensington criminal is getting thrills out of taunting the police, "I think he's playing that 'Catch Me If You Can, game,'" Fleisher said. "It's like a moth to a flame with this guy, they have urges they can't control. They get off on the power and the attack and literally smothering the life out of their victims." Philadelphia police have stepped up presence in the Kensington area. A police spokesman said there are so many police in that neighborhood that marked police cruisers are pulling over unmarked police cars. The Guardian Angels are also patrolling the area and offering to escort women home safely and trying to dig up information to help police catch the killer. The group's founder and president, Curtis Sliwa, said members are answering the community's call for more protection. "We said we would do whatever we could to try and provide more visual deterrrants in the streets, to provide escorts for the women - particularly at night - whether they were working swing shift and coming home off the Somerset Station of the SEPTA Market-Frankford line, or even if they were streetwalkers looking to score drugs - just to make sure they got safe from place to place," said Sliwa. Police are waiting for DNA test results to see if a third strangled woman is also connected to the same perpetrator. Philadelphia police suspect serial killer after strangling
By Jon Hurdle PHILADELPHIA | Fri Dec 17, 2010 2:41pm EST PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - Philadelphia police on Friday released the name of a woman found strangled in the Kensington section of the city, whose case may be linked to two recent murders in the same neighborhood. The body of Casey Mahoney, 27, of East Stroudsberg, Pennsylvania, was found dead near railroad tracks in Kensington on December 15, police said. Mahoney's body was found naked from the waist down, and there were signs of sexual assault. Police said Mahoney may have been killed by the same person -- dubbed the Kensington Strangler by local media -- who has killed two other women in the same neighborhood since early November. Kensington, on the northeast side of central Philadelphia, is one of the city's roughest neighborhoods, and is notorious for its drug dealing and prostitution. Elaine Goldberg, a 21-year-old nursing student, was found dead on November 3, while the body of Nicole Piacentini was found on November 13. Both women, whose bodies were found in vacant lots, had been raped and strangled. The attacks on Goldberg and Piacentini have been definitively linked by DNA testing, said Lt. Ray Evers of the Philadelphia Police Department. The latest attack may also be linked to recent non-fatal assaults on three other women in the neighborhood. They reported being attacked by a man of a similar description, who they fought off before informing police. "The Task Force is looking at all six incidents as possibly being perpetrated by the same person," Evers said. If DNA tests confirm that Mahoney's death is linked to the first two killings, the attacks will be officially classified as the work of a serial killer, defined as killing at least three victims, Evers said. In the case of Mahoney, "everything looks very similar" to the previous two killings, Evers said. The man who attacked the three women who escaped is described as black, in his 20s, between 5 feet 6 inches and 5 feet 10 inches tall, of slender build, with close-cut hair and wearing a hooded sweat shirt. Strangled Philadelphia Woman May Be 3rd Serial Strangler Victim
Published December 17, 2010 | FoxNews.com Authorities in Philadelphia have reportedly identified a young woman who may be the third victim of a serial strangler in the city's Kensington section. Casey Mahoney, 27, of East Stroudsburg, Pa., was the victim of a manual strangulation on Wednesday afternoon on East Tusculum Street, MyFoxPhilly.com reports. Police Deputy Commissioner William Blackburn announced the results of Mahoney's autopsy at a news conference Thursday. "Based on similarities, it appears that it may be the work of the individual responsible for the first two murders," Blackburn said. Investigators said the body had been "posed," was undressed from the waist down and had bruising around the throat, KYW-TV reported. The body was found blocks from where the two earlier victims, Elaine Goldberg, 21, and Nicole Piacentini, 35, were discovered last month. DNA evidence has determined that those two killings are linked. At least three other women have reported being attacked by a man who choked, sexually assaulted or hit them, police said. Police have been scouring the neighborhood for a suspect or suspects, and last week they released surveillance video of a man they think may be connected to the attacks. Third Kensington strangle victim identified as Casey Mahoney, 27
Philadelphia Inquirer Posted on Fri, Dec. 17, 2010 Police have identified the 27-year-old woman found strangled to death in Kensington this week as Casey Mahoney of East Stoudsburg in Monroe County. Mahoney was strangled and found Wednesday night, nude from the waist down near railroad tracks off the 100 block of East Tusculum Street. She showed signs of sexual assault, police said. Police believe Mahoney may have been killed by the same man responsible for the strangling deaths of Elaine Goldberg and Nicole Piacentini, who were both found strangled to death in Kensington last month. Woman Found Dead in Kensington Was Strangled -- Police believe the Kensington Strangler has killed again
By SHELLEY
LAURENCE 10:08 PM EST, Thu, Dec 16, 2010 Autopsy results are in on a woman found dead Wednesday in a vacant lot in Kensington. Police say she was strangled and there were signs of sexual assault. They fear the Kensington strangler may have killed his third victim. "Based on similarities, it appears that it may be the work of the individual responsible for the first two murders" said Deputy Commissioner William Blackburn. According to investigators, the victim was 27-years old and originally from East Stroudsburg. Police believe she was also the mother of a small child. Officials are withholding her name until her family is notified. The latest victim was found in a vacant lot within blocks of where two women were killed by a man dubbed the "Kensington Strangler." Investigators think the same man is responsible for three other attacks. Those women managed to escape. Last week, police released surveillance video of a man they think might be responsible for one of the sexual assaults. "We're asking the public, someone knows this individual, to reach out and contact the police, contact homicide. It's critical that we get this person off the streets," said Blackburn. Woman found dead in Philadelphia lot was strangled
Associated Press - December 16, 2010 7:35 PM ET PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Philadelphia police say a woman whose body was found in a lot in the city's Kensington section was strangled and sexually assaulted. Investigators fear the woman may be the third victim of a suspected serial strangler in the neighborhood. Deputy Commissioner William Blackburn announced the results of an autopsy on the 27-year-old woman at a news conference Thursday. Blackburn says it appears the killing may be connected to the same person responsible for two earlier murders in the area. DNA tests have linked the two earlier killings, which date back to early last month. Police say those women were found beaten, raped and strangled. Investigators also think the same man may be responsible for three other attacks in which the victims were able to escape. Philadelphia police searching for serial strangler after 4th woman found murdered in Kensington 12/08/10 PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Police are investigating a fourth death in Philadelphia's gritty Kensington neighborhood to see if it's part of a recent string of strangulation deaths and sexual assaults by choking. DNA tests show the same person attacked at least two women who were found beaten, raped and strangled since early November, police said. They don't know if the same person committed two other slayings — one last week and one this week — and three sexual assaults since Halloween. Two survivors said they had been choked to the point of losing consciousness. All the victims were white women described by police as prostitutes or drug users, and investigators believe each woman went willingly with her assailant. The attacks all took place in flophouses or empty lots in a high-crime area. "Whatever predator is out there, we know for a fact he sexually assaulted and killed two individuals. When the DNA comes back, we'll learn if he killed any others," Homicide Captain James Clark said at a Wednesday morning news conference where he urged women in the neighborhood to walk in pairs and otherwise be on guard. The slain women include 21-year-old nursing student Elaine Goldberg of northeast Philadelphia, whose family described her as a struggling addict trying to turn her life around. Her partially clothed body was found in a trash-strewn lot on Nov. 3. DNA tests show the same man killed Nicole Piacentini, 35, of Philadelphia, whose body was found Nov. 13 in a vacant lot, police said. One woman recently told police she was choked and left unconscious on the same lot on Halloween morning. Allison Edwards, 22, of Levittown — described by her mother as a young woman trying to overcome drug addiction who wanted to be a dog groomer — was found dead Friday inside a Kensington home. She had told her mother last month that she knew one of the women who had been killed, the mother told The Philadelphia Inquirer. Edwards also was strangled, but police are focusing their investigation on a man who lived at that house, Clark said. Still, they have not ruled out a connection to the other cases.

KENSINGTON - December 6, 2010 (WPVI) -- Police say the description of a man who assaulted a woman on Monday morning is similar to that of a man wanted for other, similar crimes. The attack happened around 2:10 a.m. in the 2600 block of Kensington Avenue in Philadelphia's Kensington section. Investigators say the 33-year-old victim was approached by a man who walked with her for a short distance. Then, police say the man grabbed her by the hair and pulled her into an alleyway at 1800 E. Sergeant Street. The man choked her, punched her and hit her in the head with a brick. During the struggle, police say the man also tried to stab the woman with pair of scissors, but the victim was able to take the scissors from him. Her attacker then ran away. The man is described as a black male aged 20 to 24 standing between 5'7" and 5'11" tall and weighing 160 to 170 pounds. Police say he had facial hair that was unshaven on the sides. He wore a dark colored puffy coat, a dark sweatshirt under the coat and faded black jeans. He was listening to a white iPod and told the victim his name was "Anthony." Police have released a similar suspect sketch and description for a man wanted for assaulting two women in October in Kensington. This comes as police probe a number of unsolved homicides in the same area. In mid-November, thirty-five-year-old Nicole Piacentini was found strangled in the doorway of an abandoned building on the 1900 block of East Cumberland. About two weeks earlier, less than a mile away, 21-year-old Elaine Goldberg was also found strangled in an abandoned lot on Ruth Street. During the weekend, 23-year-old Allison Edwards was murdered in Philadelphia's Juniata Park section, not far from where Piacentini and Goldberg were found. She was found partially clothed and strangled in an apartment on the 3800 block of Glendale Street early Saturday morning. Another woman attacked in Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 6 (UPI) -- A woman was assaulted Monday morning at the same Philadelphia corner where another was raped in October, police said. At 2:11 a.m., the 36-year-old woman was hit in the head with a brick and threatened with scissors, police told The Philadelphia Inquirer. The attacker tried to rape her, but she escaped. Authorities have not said if the crime is linked to a series of attacks on women in Kensington and nearby neighborhoods. Allison Edwards, 22, was found strangled Friday, the latest of three women killed by strangulation since Nov. 3. Four other women report being choked, most to the point of unconsciousness, since early October. One of them was attacked on Halloween at the same location as Monday's victim. Investigators have not officially connected Edwards' death to the two others, which have been linked by DNA evidence. In an interview Sunday, Edwards' mother, Karen Emery, noted a similarity in the cases: All three victims were found on a date containing the numeral 3, the Inquirer said. Edwards was found Dec. 3. Emery also said her daughter had told her she may have met one of the earlier victims. All three women had longtime drug problems. Police ID 3rd strangulation victim
Third strangling victim in Philadelphia has been identified as Allison Edwards, age 23. JUNIATA - December 5, 2010 (WPVI) -- A special task force is now investigating what may be the work of a serial strangler. The latest case involves a woman found strangled in the Juniata Park section of Philadelphia. It's not clear yet whether these murders are connected. That will be the job of the homicide task force to figure out. In the meantime, residents in Juniata are clearly concerned - hoping police can crack this case and the recent strangling of two other women. Residents of Juniata's 3800 block of Glendale Street, right at the corner of Erie Avenue, are on edge after the murder Friday night of 23-year-old Allison Edwards, who the medical examiner says was strangled. Her body was found in the living room of a second floor apartment. Police say Edwards did not live at the apartment where she was found. Edwards was found partially clothed. Her fate was similar that of two other women who were killed in Kensington last month. Edwards leaves behind a 5-year-old daughter. Police are now looking to see if there is any connection between Friday night's murder and the deaths of two other women in Kensington last month. Police say DNA connects those two attacks to the same man. On November 3rd the body of 21-year-old nursing student Elaine Goldberg was found strangled and partially clothed in a lot on the 2800 block of Ruth Street. 10 days later the body of 35-year-old Nicole Piacentini was discovered behind an abandoned building on the 1900 block of East Cumberland - also partially clothed and strangled. Two women have come forward to tell police they were also attacked and choked in that same area, and one was able to provide a description of her attacker. A composite sketch of that man was released, but the question remains if he was the one responsible for the two DNA-connected deaths. Is he the man who strangled Allison Edwards on Friday night? Those are some of the questions police will try to answer and residents in Juniata hope the answers come quickly. One difference in the cass is that Allison Edwards was found inside an apartment, and not outside on abandoned properties where the other attacks occurred. The task force will be looking at all of the elements to figure out if there is a serial strangler out there. Woman found strangled in Juniata may be linked to others
Sunday, December 05, 2010 PHILADELPHIA, Pa. - December 4, 2010 (WPVI) -- Philadelphia homicide detectives are investigating a murder that may be linked to two other murders. Investigators spent hours gathering evidence from a second floor apartment where a woman was found strangled to death. The young woman was found in a apartment Friday night on the 3,800 block of Glendale Street in Juniata. An autopsy revealed she had been strangled. Off camera, neighbors tell Action News they heard nothing out of the ordinary coming from that apartment, and only realized something was wrong with the arrival of police. The latest case has kicked off speculation that it could be connected to other attacks that took place nearby in the past several months. Last month, authorities announced DNA evidence linked two fatal Kensington attacks to the same man. On November third the body of 21 year old Elaine Goldberg was found in a lot on the 2,800 block of Ruth Street, partially clothed. Then ten days later, the body of 35 year old Nicole Piacentini was discovered behind an abandoned building less than a mile away. The Port Richmond woman was also partially clothed ... 4th Woman Assaulted In Kensington MyFox Philadelphia November 20, 2010 A fourth woman has come forward claiming she was assaulted by a man in Kensington. The attack took place in a lot near Kensington Avenue and Sergeant Street, near the scene of another assault in early October. In that case, the woman also survived and has provided police with a description of her attacker. In both instances, the women said they went willingly with their attacker. Both said they were choked. The first survivor told police she was sexually assaulted. Police believe it may be the same man who strangled two women and assaulted another. The latest victim says she was choked until she lost consciousness in an empty lot. The two women murdered were found strangled in empty lots. Both women's bodies were partially clothed and showed signs of sexual contact, but police have not determined whether it was consensual. Physical evidence has not linked the crimes, but investigators are looking into whether the attacks are related. Philadelphia Serial Strangler? Surviving Victim Helps Cops with Sketch
November 17, 2010 3:51 PM PHILADELPHIA (CBS/AP) Police say a man who sexually assaulted and strangled a woman until she lay unconscious last month may be responsible for the recent strangulation deaths of two women in the same part of northeastern Philadelphia. Police hope that the description provided by the surviving victim of the Kensington attacks who came forward Monday may help lead them to the alleged killer. Earlier this week, police interviewed the woman who claims she was assaulted, strangled, and left to die in early October, but for reasons unknown never reported the incident to authorities. According to The Philadelphia Daily News, the woman describes her attacker as a black or Latino man in his late 20s or early 30s, between 5 feet 8 and 6 feet, with a goatee and a short-style haircut ... Police: Survivor's story suggests a serial strangler By Allison
Steele A woman who survived an assault in Kensington has provided police with a description of a suspect who might be connected to the recent killings of two women in the neighborhood, investigators said Tuesday. The woman told police she was sexually assaulted and choked early in October by a man who left her for dead behind an abandoned building in Kensington - the same location where the body of a woman was found Saturday. With the emergence of the woman who survived the attack, police acknowledged the possibility Tuesday that one man was preying on women in the area ... Police: Kensington stranglings may be related KENSINGTON - November 16, 2010 (WPVI) -- Police say the deaths of two women who were strangled in the Kensington section of Philadelphia may be related. Investigators say they are looking to question a man in connection with the crimes, and released a composite sketch in hopes that someone can identify him. The information came from a possible third victim who was sexually assaulted early last month, police said. The man is described as either black or Hispanic in his late 20's or early 30's. He is between 5'8" and 6'0" tall. He has a medium complexion and low cut hair. Anyone with information is asked to call Philadelphia Police at 215-686-3334 or simply dial 911. Nicole Piacentini, 35 (at left) of Port Richmond was the most recent victim. Her body was found Saturday afternoon behind and abandoned building in the 1900 block of East Cumberland Street. Police say her body was partially clothed. Back on November 3rd, the body of 21-year-old Elaine Goldberg (at right) was found in a lot less than a mile away in the 2800 block of Ruth Street. Her body was also partially clothed. 3rd Woman Survives Attack in Kensington 6:06 PM EST, Tue, Nov 16, 2010 Philly police are trying to figure out if the same man strangled two women in Kensington and choked and raped a third. The two murder victims were strangled in the last two weeks and in both cases, their half-naked bodies were left in vacant lots less than a mile apart. Now police say a third woman survived being choked and raped in the same spot where the latest murder victim was found -- and her attack occurred before either of the killings. She approached police on Monday when they were canvassing the neighborhood. Homicide detectives are trying to figure out if the cases are connected. On November 3, Elaine Goldberg, a nursing student at Gwynedd Mercy College, was killed. Her body was found in a lot at 2800 Ruth Street. Ten days later, Nicole Piacentini's body was found in a lot at 1907 E. Cumberland. Both women were choked to death. In that very same lot sometime in October, the third victim told police she was choked and raped. She went willingly to the lot with a man, according to police. He choked her until she passed out and the next thing she remembers is waking up and realizing she'd been sexually assaulted, according to police. The woman was able to give police a description of her attacker. Police say right now they have no physical or forensic evidence to link the murders and attack, but because of public concern, they felt compelled to put out the composite sketch of the third victim's attacker. She describes him as a Black or Hispanic male in his late 20s or early 30s. He's between 5-foot-8 and 6-foot with a medium complexion. Police investigate second Kensington strangling Philadephia Inquirer November 15, 2010 For the second time in less than two weeks, police are investigating the death of a woman who was strangled in Kensington. There is no indication that the killings are connected, Philadelphia Lt. Ray Evers said Monday. "At this time, there is no direct evidence linking the two," he said. "There are some similarities, but that could be a coincidence." The body of Nicole Piacentini, 35, was found Saturday afternoon behind an abandoned building on the 1900 block of East Cumberland Street. Piacentini's body was partially clothed, police said. Piacentini, who lived in Port Richmond, was found less than a mile from the vacant lot where 21-year-old Elaine Goldberg was found Nov. 3. Goldberg, too, was found partially clothed and had been strangled. No arrests have been made in that case. Investigators are reviewing evidence taken from both scenes. Evers would not comment on whether police had collected DNA evidence. Officials responding to a call for a hospital case found Piacentini's body in the rear of the building on East Cumberland Street about 4 p.m. Saturday, police said. Police have not said who made the call. Goldberg, who had lived with her family in the Northeast, was found in a trash-strewn lot on the 2800 block of Ruth Street, near an abandoned warehouse and less than a mile from where Piacentini was found. A nursing student at Gwynned-Mercy College in Montgomery County, Goldberg had recently turned her life around after a bout with drug addiction, according to her family. Relatives said she was thrilled to be clean and sober and had rededicated her life to her education. Piacentini had several brushes with the law, records show. She was found guilty of prostitution in 2007, and has been arrested on charges of drug possession. The area where both women were found is near a stretch of Kensington Avenue that is known as a corridor for drug dealing and prostitution, according to police. In October and November 2009, several prostitutes reported being raped and beaten by a man who took them to abandoned areas. In March, police charged Quincy Williams, 38, in several of those attacks, citing DNA evidence. Williams is still in custody, records show. |
COMMENTS (12/9/10): Confusion reigns in Philadelphia. One report suggests that police are even considering the possibility that there are two men at work in the area: one a serial killer and one a serial rapist/assaulter. Then again other investigators are attempting to distance the third and fourth stranglings from the first two and make them the work of lone perps, someone each of the last two women knew (ex-boyfriends, "johns," drug suppliers, etc). The trouble is, all of the survivors apparently knew each other and also knew at least three of the four murdered women ... and they all give the same description of the man from which the police sketch was made and is now circulating in the news media. Also the latest strangling victim was found in the Kensington area where two of the three stranglings and all of the close calls have occurred. The Juniata Park victim, Allison Edwards, was isolated from the first two victims, Nicole Piacentini and Elaine Goldberg, because her body was found outside of Kensington and inside of a building instead of outside in the street. But now victim #4 has also been found inside of a building ... in Kensington.
Historically, the case in Philadelphia is reminiscent of the Boston Strangler case (1962-64). This was the precedent I used to come up with this prediction of a new serial strangler in the first place. Some of the victims, it turned out, were not killed by Albert DeSalvo, but a few other individuals terrorising the area around the same time. All the murders were lumped together though and attributed to the Boston Strangler. The same was true of Jack the Ripper: his body count was only five, but more than a dozen Whitechapel and other London district murders of prostitutes were attributed to him.
Thus, perhaps it is best to look at the phenomenon occurring in Philadelphia right now as being similar to Boston and Whitechapel, even if more than one perp ends up having been involved. I did say a few early cases might occur as early as autumn 2010, despite a June 2011 vector. We seem to have more than a few ... and a lot of close calls in the form of strangling survivors. There is enough going on in Philadelphia now and a lot of coverage to be had concerning "The Kensington Strangler" for me to claim this as a PREDICTION FULFILLED and also as a PREDICTION ONGOING. We will see if they catch their man early, if there is a lull until around next June, or if this perp will continually terrorise Philadelphia and surrounding regions for another 25 to 33 months.
COMMENTS (1/18/11): It appears the serial killings in Philadelphia will end now with the capture of suspect Antonio Rodriguez. There is little doubt that he was the one who strrangled at least three women in the Kensington district since there is DNA evidence to back that up. He has confessed to a fourth murder, many speculating that it may have been Allison Edwards (who police denied was linked to the murders rather hastily). The police may attempt to cover up their embarrassment by denying that a fourth victim was strangled.
The arrest occurs much sooner than it might have, sparing the lives of what could have been at least nine more women and one underage teenage girl over the next two years, assuming there were four victims in all. We should note that three additional women claim to have been raped and strangled by this person, but survived. Two of these were strangled into unconsiousness and left for dead. Thus, the total number of victims of The Kensington Strangler could have easily been seven. Again, whether police will admit these close calls were linked to Rodriguez remains to be seen. Then, of course, any recent cold cases in Philadelphia that may match this killer's MO will have to be investigated as well.
I should warn here that for all of the publicity this case has received, the serial killer of this prediction may yet have to strike, perhaps elsewhere in the United States, given the June 2011 vector. If that should happen, then the Kensington Strangler will prove to have been a RED ALERT as well as a technical fulfillment of the prediction.

It
has already been mentioned that he saw several regional wars and
certain warlike actions before
the beginning of World War III. For example he saw wars in
Yugoslavia and Bulgaria and
the destruction of New York among other things ...
OLD PREDICTION: 7/30/03, UPDATED 8/13/09, UPDATED 6/19/10, UPDATED 9/30/10 -- We know that according to both Alois Irlmaier and the Seer of Waldviertel there will be at least two limited conflicts in the Balkans before a third such war in Hungary/Serbia triggers a Russian blitzkrieg. One of these will be in "Yugoslavia" (now Serbia and Montenegro, at the time of the prophecies Bosnia, Croatia, and Slovenia were included). Another will be in Bulgaria.
Ethnic clashes and protests between Bulgarians, Muslims and Roma within Bulgaria and Turkey, as well as building tensions between Bulgaria, Turkey and Romania, will trigger a war in June 2011. There may also be some political instability inside Bulgaria further fanning the flames. Within a month Bulgaria may also be at war with Serbia, with Greece then siding with their historic allies in Belgrade.
Because of the many Turkish and Muslim casualties in the fighting, this may well be a pretext for Iran and its Muslim and Arab allies to later declare war on the region in 2012.
How long the Bulgarian conflict will last, I don't know. It could be quite short and over by August 2011 or drag on for a year until June 2012.

NEW PREDICTION: 6/30/09 -- What shall begin as a sect in April 2011 will become a famous worldwide religion in June 2011. President Barack Obama will undergo a conversion and become a leading figure in this new faith, proselytising many throughout the world with the aid of pop goddesses Madonna and Lady Gaga. Yet, it will later fall to another to become the true spiritual leader and high priest of this religion. All those who follow in Obama's footsteps will be richly rewarded beyond their wildest dreams.
May 16, 2011
A most curious report prepared by the Russian Finance Ministry on the impact of soaring food prices for our world in the remaining months of 2011 says that the deliberate flooding of some of America’s most valued farmland by President Obama was “most assuredly” done as a ‘living sacrifice’ to the ‘sun god’ of the ancient peoples once living in this region known as the “Mound Builders”.
 |
 |
 |
This report further notes that today Obama is returning to his “ancient occult roots” in the US State of Tennessee where upon the “Great Indian War Path Trail” built by the “sun god” the Americans have “anchored” their homage to “him” in this State’s three largest cities and include, the Sunsphere in Knoxville the Great Pyramid in Memphis and the Great Parthenon in Nashville ...
The knowledge of these “Mound Builders”, and their “sun god” ruler, was said to have been known by the Spanish explorer of the New World Hernando de Soto (1496-1452) who through his “links” with the Knights Templar embarked on an epic journey in 1540 through Tennessee in search of the “city of gold” this “heavenly-ruler” was said to inhabit, but which the most ancient legends actually describe as a “space port”. De Soto died on the western bank of the Mississippi River in 1452 of disease before discovering this city though. [Note: De Soto belonged to the ancient order of Spanish Knights known as “The Warriors of the Sun”.]
| The knowledge we have today of this
“sun god” was gained from the mysterious Yuchi
peoples who called themselves “The Children of the
Sun” and lived in Tennessee when first encountered
by De Soto. The Yuchi peoples, also, maintained a
separate existence from all other tribes and their
language is called a linguistic isolate, not known to be
related to any other language in the entire world. The
destruction of the Yuchi peoples by the Europeans,
through war and disease, decimated them to them to the
point of near destruction with barely a handful of them
surviving into the 1700’s. Though the Yuchi didn’t survive into our present times, their ancient “memories” have, most important of them being their belief that their “sun god” would return as the world was about to be “overturned”, again, and would be “foretold” when the “Great River” would flood leaving in its wake mass starvation for the entire world. The “Great River” refers to the largest river in North America known as The Mississippi [Note: the word Mississippi comes from Messipi, the French rendering of the Anishinaabe (Ojibwe or Algonquin) name for the river, Misi-ziibi (Great River)] which De Soto named “River of the Holy Spirit”, and Obama has ordered flooded on a scale not seen in modern history ... |
Equally important to note about this “sun god” of the ancient Yuchi people is his “returning” to our Earth does seem imminent, especially when viewed in the light of (recent UFO sightings and mysterious explosions of laser show-like light in Fort Hood, TX) and new reports coming from the United States that they have now turned off all of their telescopes meant to detect Near Earth Objects and alien transmissions ...

NEW PREDICTION: 12/26/09 -- It is almost as though Obama and all those who follow him will be punished for converting the world in the direction of the new religion. Out of nowhere, as though it came from the hand of an angry and jealous god, a large asteroid crashes into the Moon in June 2011. It will cause visible damage and the explosion will be so spectacular that it will be quite easily witnessed, in great dread, from Earth. One long-standing member of my forum, Conor, had a vivid dream where a blood red moon was hanging in the night sky in three large fragments. Perhaps this will be the fulfillment of this event. But if this is asteroid is powerful enough to fragment the Moon, expect to see many, many dangerous smaller pieces strike Earth as a "rain of fire," as is predicted below.

OLD PREDICTION: 1/24/05, UPDATED 2/24/08 -- Should seismic activity continue to create earthquakes on the high end of the Richter scale as with Sumatra in 2004 and possibly soon in Turkey, East Russia, and the US west coast, "The Great Tokyo Earthquake" and subequent submerging of Japan into the sea, as predicted by the American seer Edgar Cayce, will occur in June 2011. What will begin as an 8.9 magnitude temblor will escalate into a series of super-shocks, destroying Japan utterly.

earthquake strikes off the northern coast of Japan July 10, 2011 -- Updated 0153 GMT (0953 HKT)
(CNN) -- A major earthquake struck off the northeastern coast of Japan Sunday, prompting tsunami advisories for several coastal regions, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) said. The U.S. Geological Survey said the earthquake struck at 10:57 a.m. at the epicenter, about 130 miles east of Sendai. The earthquake was more than 20 miles deep and had a magnitude of 7.0, the USGS said. The JMA measured the magnitude of the quake at 7.1. Tsunami advisories were issued for the coastal regions of Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima, the JMA said. The areas were among the hardest hit by this year's devastating earthquake and tsunami. No immediate abnormalities were reported at nearby nuclear facilities, according to the semiofficial Kyodo news agency. There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage, the agency said. Tremors from the quake were felt as far away as Tokyo. JAPAN IS SINKING: Liquefaction After Japanese Earthquake Larger Than Expected Planetsave.com April 19, 2011 The level of soil liquefaction that took place as a result of the Japanese earthquake has surprised researchers who have been studying the damage. Liquefaction is when saturated soils – specifically recent sediments, sand, gravel or fill – lose their strength and integrity and begin to flow like water during an earthquake. When this happens, foundations shudder and structure can shift or even sink, and as a result, significantly enhances the damage done as a result of the earthquake. The broad extent of the liquefaction observed over hundreds of miles was daunting to experienced engineers who are normally not so affected by disaster sites, having recently been involved in the clean-up in Chile and New Zealand. “We’ve seen localized examples of soil liquefaction as extreme as this before, but the distance and extent of damage in Japan were unusually severe,” said Scott Ashford, a professor of geotechnical engineering at Oregon State University and a member of this research team. “Entire structures were tilted and sinking into the sediments, even while they remained intact,” Ashford said. “The shifts in soil destroyed water, sewer and gas pipelines, crippling the utilities and infrastructure these communities need to function. We saw some places that sank as much as four feet.” A preliminary report about some of the damage in Japan has just been concluded by the Geotechnical Extreme Events Reconnaissance, or GEER advance team, in work supported by the National Science Foundation, and has raised questions for governments in other locations that could suffer a subduction earthquake. The level of liquefaction in Japan is as a result of the length of the earthquake itself. Some degree of liquefaction is always expected during an earthquake, but the extended duration of the Japanese earthquake – some 5 minutes – increased the level of liquefaction and thus the damage caused. “With such a long-lasting earthquake, we saw how structures that might have been okay after 30 seconds just continued to sink and tilt as the shaking continued for several more minutes,” Ashford said. “And it was clear that younger sediments, and especially areas built on recently filled ground, are much more vulnerable.” “There’s no doubt that we’ll learn things from what happened in Japan that will help us to mitigate risks in other similar events,” Ashford added. “Future construction in some places may make more use of techniques known to reduce liquefaction, such as better compaction to make soils dense, or use of reinforcing stone columns.” Magnitude-7.4 quake kills 3, injures 140 in Japan Monsters and Critics Apr 8, 2011, 3:31 GMT
Tokyo - At least three people died and some 140 people were injured in the magnitude-7.4 earthquake that struck north-eastern Japan overnight, news reports said Friday. Authorities said at least three people died in Miyagi and Yamagata prefectures, public broadcaster NHK reported. The Meteorological Agency said the epicentre of the quake, which took place at 11:32 pm Thursday (1432 GMT), was at a depth of about 40 kilometres off Miyagi prefecture. Thursday's quake was believed to be an aftershock of the March 11 magnitude-9 quake that struck the same region. It was the biggest aftershock yet recorded, the agency said. According to local officials, fires broke out at three locations in the region and 13 cases of gas leaks were reported in Sendai City, the capital of the prefecture. Seven people were injured in Kurihara City in Miyagi prefecture and eight in Tome City. Some train services were suspended in the region while about 8,300 houses were without water and gas supplies were cut off in a wide area in Miyagi prefecture. More than 3 million households lost power and some mobile phone connections and landline phone services in north-eastern Japan were affected. There was no impact reported at the stricken Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, the operator Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) said. The power station was crippled by the March 11 earthquake and subsequent tsunami. The agency issued a tsunami warning to coastal areas of Miyagi and a tsunami advisory to coastal regions of Aomori, Iwate, Fukushima and Ibaraki prefectures. The tsunami warning and advisory were lifted shortly before 1 am Friday (1600 GMT Thursday). No visible tsunami was observed, the agency said. The March quake killed more than 12,600 and about 15,000 people remain listed as missing, Japan's National Police Agency said. Prime Minister Naoto Kan is to visit Sendai and Ishinomaki cities on Sunday, the government said. An official from the agency warned that another big aftershock could hit the same region. Victims of the killer megaquake: Over 1,000 feared dead after tsunami sweeps Japan Strength of quake updated to magnitude 9.0 By Daily Mail Reporter 12:56 AM on 12th March 2011
More than 1,000 people are feared to have died after the sixth largest earthquake in recorded history devastated Japan. The massive earthquake - 8,000 times stronger than the one that hit New Zealand last month - sent a catastrophic 33 foot tsunami hurtling across the Pacific Ocean. Last night the strength of the quake increased to a staggering 9.0 on the Richter scale. Thousands of people were also forced to flee for their lives as the 100mph wall of water bore down on them, sweeping away everything in its path.
Last night, huge fires burned unabated across large parts of the country as damaged oil refineries and gas works billowed black smoke into the sky. Half the country was understood to be without power, with four million homes in Tokyo alone being cut off, while the army has been deployed to the quake-hit areas to help relief efforts. However those relief efforts were hampered by at least 50 reported aftershocks, including a 6.6 magnitude tremor which hit Tokyo and caused already damaged buildings to shake further. Elsewhere, two high-speed bullet trains were missing alongside a cruise ship carrying 100 passengers that was swept away when the wave hit. One of the trains was reported to be carrying 400 passengers.A state of emergency was declared at a nuclear power plant in Fukushima after the quake caused the cooling system to fail. Tonight, the Japanese government confirmed that they would release radioactive vapor to ease high pressure that had built up inside the reactor.
Between 200 and 300 bodies have been found in Sendai city, while another 151 were confirmed killed, with 547 missing. Police also said 798 people were injured. And, with the death toll rising, it is feared thousands more are at risk as the true scale of the devastation, which could total £9billion, becomes apparent. The tsunami struck Sendai, which has a population of about one million, on the north east coast early yesterday morning. It followed the earthquake which hit at 2.46pm local time (0546 GMT) at a depth of six miles, about 80 miles off the eastern coast, Japan’s meteorological agency said. The area is 240 miles (380km) north east of Tokyo. Japan is better prepared than anywhere else in the world, with its buildings specifically designed to withstand earthquakes, but many were simply swept away.
Kesennuma, a town of 70,000 people in Miyagi, burned furiously into the night with no apparent hope of being extinguished, Japan's public broadcaster NHK said. Upturned and partially submerged vehicles were seen bobbing in the water, some with drivers and passengers inside. Buildings, including a hotel with 100 guests inside, collapsed and tens of thousands ran from office tower blocks into the streets as the earth beneath them shook. One said it was as if they ‘were standing on the deck of a ship in a storm’. Cars trying to escape the wall of mud and water were picked up and carried along. Some disappeared beneath while others were tossed and turned in the waters. More than 300 homes were washed away in Ofunato City alone. Television footage showed mangled debris, uprooted trees, upturned cars and shattered timber littering streets. Hundreds of Britons are believed to be in the country. Many have spoken of the terrifying moment that the quake struck. Jide Obandina, a 29-year-old teacher originally from Shropshire and now living in Tokyo, told how he fled a gym in the skyscraper district of Shinjuku. 'It started getting intense and I got up and started walking out briskly,’ he said. ‘About halfway down the corridor it kicked in, there was a roaring noise and stuff was falling all around me. That was when I ran for my life. There is nothing more terrifying than being surrounded by huge buildings that could come down on your head. You could hear them creak and groan. It was terrifying.’ ... Widespread destruction from Japan earthquake, tsunamis March 12, 2011 -- Updated 0614 GMT (1414 HKT)
Tokyo (CNN) -- The morning after Japan was struck by the most powerful earthquake to hit the island nation in recorded history and the tsunami it unleashed -- and even as the earth continued to twitch with aftershocks -- the disaster's massive impact was only beginning to be revealed. Rescue efforts began with the first light as military helicopters plucked survivors from roofs and carried them to safety. The 8.9-magnitude temblor, which was centered near the east coast of Japan, killed hundreds of people, caused the formation of 30-foot walls of water that swept across rice fields, engulfed entire towns, dragged houses onto highways, and tossed cars and boats like toys. Some waves reached six miles (10 kilometers) inland in Miyagi Prefecture on Japan's east coast. "The earth shook with such ferocity," said Andy Clark, who said he had gotten used to earthquakes during his 20 years in Japan but never experienced what he felt Friday at the airport outside Tokyo. "I thought things were coming to an end ... it was simply terrifying."
Buildings shook, heaved and collapsed by the score, and numerous fires ignited. Hundreds more people were missing, Japanese media reported, citing local and national police. Tens of thousands of people were displaced, according to Japan's Kyodo News Agency. Prime Minister Naoto Kan said the "enormously powerful" earthquake had caused "tremendous damage over a wide area." The quake, which struck at 2:46 p.m. (12:46 a.m. ET), prompted the U.S. National Weather Service to issue tsunami warnings for at least 50 countries and territories. The epicenter of Friday's main quake was located off Miyagi Prefecture, about 230 miles (370 kilometers) northeast of Tokyo, the U.S. Geological Survey said. Also in Miyagi, officials reported that a train had derailed and authorities had lost contact with four trains in coastal areas, Kyodo reported, citing the East Japan Railway Company. Six million households, more than 10% of the total in Japan, were without electricity, said Japan's ambassador to the United States, Ichiro Fujisaki. In Tokyo, rail service was suspended overnight, elevated highways were shut early Saturday and surface streets remained jammed as commuters -- thousands of whom had spent the night in shelters -- tried to get to their homes in outlying areas.
Video aired by Japanese broadcaster NHK showed extensive fires in Miyagi and in the port city of Hakodate, in the southern part of Hokkaido island in northern Japan. An oil refinery was burning in Chiba Prefecture near Tokyo, according to NHK. And Kyodo News said fires could be seen in extensive areas of Kesennuma in Miyagi.
Aerial views of Kesennuma showed plumes of white smoke emanating from the center of the city and large, black areas the flames had already traversed. In the city of Minamisoma in Fukushima Prefecture, all that was left of many structures were their foundations. Only concrete and steel buildings appeared to have withstood the wash. No people were visible in the streets of the town, whose population on Friday had been 70,000. And a dam in Fukushima Prefecture failed, washing away homes, Kyodo reported. There was no immediate word of casualties, but the Defense Ministry said 1,800 homes were destroyed. The National Weather Service sent a warning to 50 countries and territories it said could be affected by the tsunami. Scores of aftershocks jarred the country Saturday, punctuated by a pair of strong earthquakes in the early morning, including one with a magnitude of 7.1 and another with a magnitude of 6.8. A leak occurred in an atomic power plant in northeast Japan, a spokesman for Japan's nuclear agency said Saturday. Cooling equipment stopped working when generators failed in the quake, and the temperature inside the plant in the Fukushima prefecture had risen; officials lowered the pressure inside the plant hangar by venting it, said spokesman Kazuo Kodama. But high levels of radiation led officials to suspend the release, NHK said. Alternative plans were being evaluated, the broadcaster said. Citing Japan's nuclear safety agency, Kyodo said radiation levels were 1,000 times above normal in the the control room of the facility's reactor. An evacuation order was extended to people who live within 10 kilometers (6 miles) of the plant, named Fukushima Daiichi, about 160 miles (260 kilometers) north of Tokyo. The agency said the radiation amount posed no immediate threat to the health of nearby residents, Kyodo reported.
Cooling problems also appeared to have affected to another of the Tokyo Electric Power Company's nuclear facilities. Kyodo reported the power company alerted authorities that the cooling system at three units of another plant in the same prefecture. That prompted Japanese authorities to add that plant to its emergency list, along with the another plant, Kyodo said. Prime Minister Kan inspected the plant and the rest of the affected region from a helicopter. The government ordered the evacuation of residents nearest the plant as efforts to keep it cool after it was shut were initially hampered. The death toll rose to 433, the nation's Kyodo News reported Saturday. At least 784 missing are missing, Kyodo said, citing police. Kyodo predicted the death toll would surpass 1,000. The news agency, citing Japan's defense forces, also said 60,000 to 70,000 people were being evacuated to shelters in the Sendai area of Miyagi Prefecture. The prime minister said an emergency task force had been activated, and he appealed for calm. The government dispatched 8,000 troops to assist in the recovery effort and asked for U.S. military assistance, according to Kyodo. A spokesman for the U.S. military bases in Japan said all service members were accounted for and there were no reports of damage to installations or ships. By early Saturday, more than 50 countries had offered help, said Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. U.S. President Barack Obama offered his condolences and said the United States was standing by to help "in this time of great trial." The U.S. Navy initiated reconnaissance flights to map the disaster zone and was moving the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan into position to assist the Japanese government with relief efforts, defense officials said. Images from Japanese media and CNN iReporters showed smoke pouring from buildings and water rushing across fields, carrying away entire structures. "I wasn't scared when it started ... but it just kept going and going," said Michelle Roberts, who lives in central Tokyo. "I won't lie, it was quite scary. But we are all OK. We live on the third floor, so most everything shook and shifted." The quake toppled cars off bridges and into waters underneath. Waves of debris flowed like lava across farmland, pushing boats, houses and trailers in their paths.
The quake also disrupted rail service and affected air travel. Hundreds of flights were canceled, Kyodo said. Some 13,000 people were stranded at the Narita airport, and 10,000 were stuck at the Haneda airport, the news agency said. Flights into and out of both airports had resumed Saturday. At Tokyo Station, one of Japan's busiest subway terminals, shaken commuters grabbed one another to stay steady as the ground shook. Dazed residents poured into the streets, and offices and schools were closed. Children cried. "This was larger than anyone expected and went on longer than anyone expected," said Matt Alt, who lives in Tokyo. "My wife was the calm one. ... She told us to get down and put your back on something, and leave the windows and doors open in case a building shifts so you don't get trapped." The

Shenza Chen of the U.S. Geological The tsunami brought waves of nearly 7 feet to a harbor in Maui, authorities said, but other areas reported lower levels. On the U.S. mainland, wave heights from Alaska to California ranged from less than a foot to more than 8 feet. The highest measurement, 8.1 feet, was at Crescent City, California. The quake was the latest in a series around Japan this week. On Wednesday, a 7.2-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Honshu, the country's meteorological agency said. Early Thursday, an earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.3 struck off the same coast. Friday's quake is the strongest earthquake in recorded history to hit Japan, according to U.S. Geologic Survey records. The previous record was an 8.6-magnitude earthquake that struck near the Chubu Region near southwestern Honshu on October 28, 1707, that may have killed 5,000 people, CNN meteorologist Sean Morris said. That quake generated a 33-foot (10-meter) tsunami wave, and some scientists believe the quake may have triggered the eruption of Mount Fuji 49 days later, Morris said. The world's largest recorded quake took place in Chile on May 22, 1960, with a magnitude of 9.5, the USGS said.

TOKYO: A massive 8.9 magnitude quake hit northeast Japan on Friday, causing many injuries, fires and a four-metre (13-ft) tsunami along parts of the country's coastline, NHK television and witnesses reported. There were several strong aftershocks and a warning of a 10-metre tsunami following the quake, which also caused buildings to shake violently in the capital Tokyo. TV pictures showed a vast wall of water carrying buildings and debris across a large swathe of coastal farmland. Public broadcaster NHK showed flames and black smoke billowing from a building in Odaiba, a Tokyo suburb, and bullet trains to the north of the country were halted. Black smoke was also pouring out of an industrial area in Yokohama's Isogo area. TV footage showed boats, cars and trucks floating in water after a small tsunami hit the town of Kamaichi in northern Japan. An overpass, location unknown, appeared to have collapsed into the water. Kyodo news agency said there were reports of fires in the city of Sendai in the northeast. "The building shook for what seemed a long time and many people in the newsroom grabbed their helmets and some got under their desks," Reuters correspondent Linda Sieg said in Tokyo. "It was probably the worst I have felt since I came to Japan more than 20 years ago." Passengers on a subway line in Tokyo screamed and grabbed other passengers' hands. The shaking was so bad it was hard to stand, said Reuters reporter Mariko Katsumura. Hundreds of office workers and shoppers spilled into Hitotsugi street, a shopping street in Akasaka in downtown Tokyo. Household goods ranging from toilet paper to clingfilm were flung into the street from outdoor shelves in front of a drugstore. Crowds gathered in front of televisions in a shop next to the drugstore for details. After the shaking from the first quake subsided, crowds were watching and pointing to construction cranes on an office building up the street with voices saying, "They're still shaking!", "Are they going to fall?" Asagi Machida, 27, a web designer in Tokyo, sprinted from a coffee shop when the quake hit. "The images from the New Zealand earthquake are still fresh in my mind so I was really scared. I couldn't believe such a big earthquake was happening in Tokyo." Japan earthquake: Tsunami causes major damage after large earthquake hits Japan People flee for their lives as ten-metre high tsunami washes away buildings after massive 8.9 quake strikes Japan Mail Online Friday, Mar 11 2011 6AM, 7:26 AM
Huge tsunami waves have washed away buildings and cars after a massive earthquake struck off the coast of Japan. The earthquake, measuring 8.9 on the Richter scale, sent ten-metre waves surging inland and caused fires in Tokyo. Japan's meteorological agency said the tsunami struck Sendai, which has a population of about one million. Drivers were seen fleeing the waves on highways close to the coast as the impact of the huge quake swept ashore while the car park at Disneyland in Tokyo was submerged. Dramatic footage showed the surge washing away cars, a bridge and buildings at the mouth of the Hirose-gawa River, which flows through the centre of Sendai, while a roof caved in at a graduation ceremony in Tokyo. A large ship swept away by the tsunami rammed directly into a breakwater in Kesennuma city in Miyagi prefecture, according to footage on public broadcaster NHK, and numerous people are believed to have been injured. Officials were trying to assess possible damage from the quake but had no immediate details. The quake that struck 2:46pm was followed by a series of aftershocks, including a 7.4-magnitude one about 30 minutes later. The U.S. Geological Survey upgraded the strength of the first quake to a magnitude 8.9.
The meteorological agency issued a tsunami warning for the entire Pacific coast of Japan. National broadcaster NHK was warning those near the coast to get to safer ground.The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii said a tsunami warning was in effect for Japan, Russia, Marcus Island and the Northern Marianas. A tsunami watch has been issued for Guam, Taiwan, the Philippines, Indonesia and the U.S. state of Hawaii. The quake struck at a depth of six miles (10 kilometres), about 80 miles (125 kilometres) off the eastern coast, the agency said. The area is 240 miles (380 kilometre) northeast of Tokyo. In downtown Tokyo, large buildings shook violently and workers poured into the street for safety. TV footage showed a large building on fire and bellowing smoke in the Odaiba district of Tokyo. In central Tokyo, trains were stopped and passengers walked along the tracks to platforms. Footage on NHK from their Sendai office showed employees stumbling around and books and papers crashing from desks. Several quakes had hit the same region in recent days, including a 7.3 magnitude one on Wednesday.Thirty minutes after the quake, tall buildings were still swaying in Tokyo and mobile phone networks were not working. Japan's Coast Guard has set up task force and officials are standing by for emergency contingencies, Coast Guard official Yosuke Oi said. 'I'm afraid we'll soon find out about damages, since the quake was so strong,' he said. |
COMMENTS (3/11/11): Here is the 8.9 quake I predicted, spot on to the exact magnitude. Here are the waves from the tsunami. It is not yet June. Will this be the first of a series that will destroy Tokyo and inundate most of Japan. This is now a PREDICTION PARTIALLY FULFILLED, but the rest of the percentage depends on what follows. This is unquestionably a major event and it is early yet, we have not seen the full extent of the destruction.
April 7, 2011 Earthquake: Magnitude 7.4
COMMENTS (4/8/11): Tokyo really felt this one, a 7.4 magnitude temblor, and there are casualties being reported, although small at this time (three dead, 140 injured). One can see the skyscrapers swaying and a strange blue flash of light on the horizon. It makes me think of the legend of how Atlantis was destroyed in stages, by storm and deluge, but also by their own technology. Tales of strange blue and purple flashing lights are part of the Atlantean destruction legend. The PREDICTION PARTIALLY FULFILLED status is as good as PREDICTION FULFILLED since the March tsunami actually did inundate a good part of Japan ... temporarily anyway. In addition, the explosions at the four nuclear power plants, their partial meltdowns, radiation leakages, and poisoning of food and water, rolling blackouts, all contribute to a truly apocalyptic picture of an island nation going to its destruction in stages like Atlantis.
My personal prediction is fulfilled and in progress, and so too do I believe is Nostradamus' Quatrain 10:49:

JAPAN IS SINKING: Severe Liquefaction Has Occurred
Tokyo sees high
quake probability, scientists warn - January 24, 2012.
Continue or return to previous position.
NEW PREDICTION: 12/26/09 -- Despite the various conflicts I have discussed that might occur in 2010 and 2011, it is this event that will truly begin "World War III in the Middle East." A naval blockade is considered by most countries an official act of war ... and the nation or nations that carries it out as beligerents. This is a dreaded event because it pulls Russia into all existing conflicts as a military adversary of the West and possibly Israel. The base 7 vector for this event is June 2011 ... but if the US attacks Iran in 2010, it could happen even sooner.
If a March 2010 attack by Israel or the United States on Iranian nuclear facilities is called off, we might assume that a naval blockade by Russia and Iran means it has been carried out in 2011 instead ... or that the blockade itself will tr
