Human remains were found Wednesday in an upscale Rhode Island beach neighborhood as concerns about a potential serial killer in New England continue to plague the region.
A human leg bone was reportedly found on a beach path off Everett Avenue in Watch Hill, a wealthy coastal enclave in the town of Westerly, according to WJAR. The remains were found just a stone’s throw from pop megastar Taylor Swift’s beachside mansion in the town.
The remains were transferred to the Rhode Island Medical Examiner’s Office for further investigation.
Wormser was Coffel’s roommate, and she was found dismembered and stuffed into a suitcase in March, stemming from what police said was an argument over crack cocaine.
Friday, Coffel died in the Corrigan Correctional Center, according to NBC Connecticut. At the time of his arrest, Coffel reportedly told police that he was in a lot of pain from cancer.
