What the hell people? Why aren’t we running around screaming “serial killer! serial killer!?” How come people across Seattle are still leaving their houses in the early mornings to jog, alone, in tennis shoes?
THERE’S GOT TO BE A SERIAL KILLER NEARBY, FOLKS!

Eleven feet. We now know that 2 of those feet belonged to the same person, so we’re talking nine people here. In the Seattle papers and newsrooms, you read that experts haven’t found any evidence that the feet were manually detached from the bodies. That ankles and wrists naturally detach in the water. That the waters are surely full of missing people. That running shoes make feet float. Blah blah blah. Sometimes they say one of the people died of “natural causes” or that the person was “depressed.” Aren’t the sad and ill the weakest among us? They are. Blah blah blah.
There has to be a serial killer. This is too weird. Has somebody called Ann Rule yet?
Also, there have been hoaxes and copycats. See Wikipedia for some detail on that.
Here’s what I think. Have you seen the tv show Dexter? If you haven’t, you should. Dexter is a serial killer who owns a boat in Miami. He chops bodies up, puts them in garbage sacks & tosses them into the ocean. What if one of those bags came open after a year or two or three? What is he chopped people at the knee but did bother with ankles? Guess what you’d have then? A floating foot. Or eleven floating feet.
Or more.
