In Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island, eight people—the majority of whom are thought to be women—died in March and April, raising questions about the possibility of a serial killer.

Human remains have been found in places including New Haven, Norwalk, Groton and Killingly, Connecticut, and Rhode Island throughout the last two months.

Walsh told Fox News Digital that “internet rumors are just that,” adding that authorities have not disclosed any link between the eight deaths.

Regarding the several fatalities throughout the state, Connecticut State Police recently issued a statement stating that “there is no information at this time suggesting any connection to similar remains discoveries.

And there is also no known threat to the public at this time.”
