I get the sense from other articles, including the one below, that foul play is not suspected. I agree with @Yemelyan that this might have been tragically self-induced or accidental. JMO
Family remembers teen found dead on Avoca Trail Sunday
From the article: "Michigan State Police Specialist Lt. Liz Rich confirmed the death was being treated as suspicious as of Sunday night, but said there was no suspected threat to the public and an autopsy is needed before further information can be released."
Where have we heard that before?
When LE indicates there is no threat to the public after a suspicious death with a body left outdoors/on public land, I wish they would clarify why they think the public is safe. It must be terrifying to live in the area and hear such a dismissive-sounding phrase with no explanation, especially for people who match the demographic and possibly the habits of the victim, or for those who have family or loved ones in the area who align with those traits.
If I knew a teenage girl in that area (or maybe just a teenager! or anyone who likes to take walks on a trail!), I certainly would want to know why LE thinks she is safe pursuing ordinary outdoor activities when the victim clearly was not.

I didn't know anyone he killed but did have connections to many places he was. My Mom was dean's sec. at MWHS. I can't like your comment. Ugh. Sorry.he murdered my neighbor.

I hope that the Delphi investigators are at least aware/monitoring this new case as on the surface there seems to be very interesting parallels to Delphi. This story has some pictures showing the trail/bridge area in question. Just wanted to pass it along as it caught my eye as someone who follows Abby & Libby’s case daily.
Missing 16-year-old girl found dead along St. Clair County trail
I'm fine. Missing you, Websight, Imnosherlock, liltexan and others that contributed so much at the beginning of this. I still haven't changed my POI that I had from the beginning but at least the FBI went to him and swabbed him.(but I know he's not in CODIS)
I read that the inmate who murdered Jeffrey Dahmer said he did so because he despised Dahmer's disturbing sense of humor.I'm not thinking about any particular person. I don't know a lot about serial killers and personality traits. I should read some of the books that have been recommended here, or watch some documentaries. I just want to understand more about any traits that can or cannot go along with someone who can commit these extremely violent crimes. I know very hilariously ironic senses of humor can go along with people who have had a hard life. But somehow I cannot see a serial killer as being someone who can crack people up laughing. Just curious, I guess.
Frmr Prosecuter Ives said we'd want to take four photos of the CS because it is unusual, as all CSs are. Ives seemed to insinuate the signatures are photo worthy. Hence, four photos.
Can you remind me in which interview he said this? I want to go back and refresh my memory on this point.
