OMG What a nut this killer must have been - 80 years ago. Where ever he was doing his dismemberments must have been a very bloody scene.

This is a fascinating series of murders. There is already a long thread on the subject in Cold Cases. The chief investigator of these crimes was none other than Elliot Ness, who had led the famous "Untouchables" in Chicago a few years earlier.

"Jane Doe II, victim 8, possibly Rose Wallace, was found beneath the Lorain-Carnegie bridge on June 6 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/June_6), 1937 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1937). It was estimated that victim number 8 had been dead one year when found, which casts some doubt that the victim was Wallace, who was known to have disappeared only ten months earlier. Dental work was considered a close match both by police experts and by her son, who felt certain that the victim was his mother. A definitive identification was not possible however, since the dentist who performed the work had died years before." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_Torso_Murderer


I wonder if they have a photo of this woman and can do a photographic superimposition now?
