New England serial killer: CT River Valley survivor stabbed 27 times warns locals to remain 'vigilant'

Amid internet speculation about a serial killer in New England, one New Hampshire woman who survived a suspected serial killer herself in the 1980s is encouraging locals to remain “vigilant.”

Social media sleuths and some local reports have noted the discovery of seven sets of human remains found across Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island between March and April. While the victims’ causes of death remain unknown and there did not appear to be any kind of connection between the cases as of Thursday, the recent findings have locals on edge.

“I’m talking about this because, for one, do I think all these cases are connected? Maybe not, but it’s unusual to have so many remains and so many bodies coming up in such a short amount of time,” Jane Boroski, the only suspected survivor of the Connecticut River Valley serial killer, told Fox News Digital. “My big thing is: I don’t want people to dismiss this or forget about it because the more it’s talked about … then the authorities have more of a reason to investigate.”

Boroski, who hosts a podcast called “Invisible Tears,” recently shared a video to her Facebook page discussing a private group called “New England SK,” in which thousands of social media users discuss morbid findings across New England. 

“Even though these remains were found within the last two months, at least some of them have been in these conditions or in a state of decomposition for a period of time,” he said. “Now forensically speaking, the only way that you could say with any degree of confidence that these cases were related would be to find some kind of physical evidence. That would allow you to connect a person or an object to more than one [case], and I think most people recognize that the most definitive item of evidence would be DNA.”

Valentin added that it will be important for authorities to compare analyses of the remains and identify victims.

At least three of the victims in these seven cases — two in Connecticut and one in Rhode Island — have been identified as women. Police also believe the victim found in Killingly, Connecticut, was a woman in her 40s to 60s.

The New England Serial Killer Facebook group, which has 57,000 members, garnered more than 10,000 new members last week and over the weekend, as MassLive.com first reported.

Searches for “New England serial killer” on Google spiked around April 7, according to data from the search engine.
