Hoodline, August 2025
Amid growing online chatter about a potential serial killer in New England, Massachusetts State Police Col. Geoffrey Noble has indicated the agency is taking note of the cases causing such speculation while underscoring the lack of evidence currently linking them. “As a former homicide detective, certainly I am tracking the news of these tragic deaths,” Noble said in an interview at department headquarters in Framingham, as reported by NBC Boston. He added, “there is no evidence to indicate that there is a serial killer at this moment.”
Despite nondescript surroundings, the MSP Fusion Center, a central hub where multiple law enforcement agencies at the local, state, and federal levels converge for threat-related intelligence, is actively monitoring and tracking the pattern of deaths. Noble told the Boston Herald, “And, certainly, if we do uncover similarities or consistencies between the cases, they have our attention for sure.”
The string of cases began with the discovery of skeletal remains in Natick on April 10 and included multiple corpses found across six states. Instances like the death of Paige Fannon in Connecticut and the heinous murder of Suzanne Wormser, found in a suitcase in Groton, have fueled the rumors. However, Wormser’s case was believed to be closed after her roommate Donald Coffel was charged with her murder.
