New England serial killer fears stoked by 13th body found in small town
Suazo, a 21-year-old Boston resident, was found by a passerby around 11:45 a.m. on Sunday, June 1, in Milton, Mass, which is approximately 8 miles south from the capitol city, according to a press release from the Norfolk District Attorney's Office.
The department said that there were no obvious signs of trauma, and the cause of death is under investigation by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner.
Suazo's death is the latest in a troubling sequence of cases. Since March 2025, at least 13 bodies have been found across Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Maine, many of them in remote or wooded areas.

While local police departments and district attorneys continue to investigate each case individually, the sheer volume and proximity in time have led to mounting public speculation about the possibility of a serial offender.
Law enforcement agencies have pushed back against the notion of a single perpetrator, citing the absence of forensic links from each case.
On March 6, 35-year-old Paige Fannon was found dead in the Norwalk River in Connecticut, the same day a human skull was discovered in a wooded area near Route 3 in Plymouth, Massachusetts. Later that month, on March 19, the dismembered remains of 58-year-old Suzanne Wormser were found in a suitcase in Groton, Connecticut; her roommate was arrested but died shortly afterward in custody.
Denise Leary, 59, was found dead in New Haven on March 25, followed a day later by 56-year-old Michele Romano, whose remains were located in the woods in Foster, Rhode Island.
New England Serial Killer Fears: 10 Bodies Now Found In Less Than 2 Months
The trend continued into April. On April 9, unidentified remains were found in Killingly, Connecticut.
On April 20, a body was pulled from the Seekonk River in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, followed by another body found in the Connecticut River near Rocky Hill on April 27.
That same day, another body was discovered in Taunton, Massachusetts. On April 22, the body of 45-year-old Meggan Meredith was found near a bike path in Springfield, Massachusetts.
More recently, on May 30, 34-year-old Jasmine Wilkes was found deceased in Edgewood Park in New Haven.
Suazo's sister, Melanie Pizarro, initiated a GoFundMe campaign to assist with funeral expenses, describing Adriana as "rambunctious, bold, and had a personality that could light up any room."
"Adriana wasn't just my sister—she was a firecracker, full of life, laughter, and fierce love," she said. "She loved hard, laughed loud, and made sure the people around her felt it."
A vigil was held near the site where Suazo's body was found, with family and friends gathering to honor her memory.Original article source: New England serial killer fears stoked by 13th body found in small town

‘American Idol' boss moved to $4.5M mansion ‘to be safe' but had a break-in just weeks before her murder
The 'American Idol' executive murdered alongside her husband in their multimillion-dollar Los Angeles home had moved there 'to be safe' — but had a break-in just weeks before they were killed during a suspected burglary, a family friend has revealed. Robin Kaye and her husband, Thomas Deluca, both 70, had beefed up security at their Encino home after a perp recently broke in while they were sleeping, the close friend told Fox News. 'They added spikes to the top of the fence… They had spikes on the other side of the fence, and obviously updated their video surveillance as well. They had video surveillance already,' said the family friend, who didn't want to be otherwise identified. Advertisement 3 Robin Kaye and her husband, Thomas DeLuca, are seen in an undated photo. Facebook The initial break-in was while they slept in the middle of the night, the friend said, saying it was just weeks ago. 'Their dog woke them up in the middle of the night… That's what ran them off,' the friend recalled. Advertisement 'I think they said they broke a glass and the dog started barking, and the people ran off.' After ramping up security and surveillance, the couple — 'two of the nicest people you'll ever meet' — told friends they didn't believe the suspect would show up again, the pal said. Meanwhile, it previously emerged Kaye had reached out to a private security firm in the weeks before the bloodshed amid fears for her safety. 3 Robin Kaye and her husband Thomas DeLuca were killed in their Los Angeles home on Monday. 4CRNS, WCP / BACKGRID Advertisement 3 The suspect of the murders is seen standing in front of a row of garages at a residential complex, with numerous cops surrounding him. TMZ 'She felt threatened by somebody because of somebody around their home or around their neighborhood who felt suspicious,' Kris Herzog, owner of the Bodyguard Group of Beverly Hills, told NBC Los Angeles. The couple never ended up hiring the company. Advertisement Kaye and Deluca were found dead inside their home on Monday after cops were called to carry out a welfare check. The suspect, 22-year-old Raymond Boodarian, was arrested Tuesday. It wasn't immediately clear if Boodarian is also a suspect in the initial break-in just weeks before the slayings. Cops believe Boordarian had been burglarizing the home, which last sold for around $4.5 million in 2023, on July 10 while the couple were out. He allegedly opened fire on them when they returned home and busted him, police said. The couple were found four days later with gunshot wounds to the head in separate rooms — Kaye in the pantry and Deluca in a bathroom. Detectives don't believe Boordarian knew the victims.

Epstein files uproar puts spotlight on Dan Bongino
Public uproar and internal fighting in the Trump administration over the handling of documents related to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein has put a spotlight on FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino and his importance to members of President Trump's base. Bongino has been at the center of debate over the Epstein files after the Justice Department essentially closed the case in a joint memo with the FBI. The deputy FBI director has clashed with Attorney General Pam Bondi over the issue and reportedly weighed resigning. The outrage on the right over the prospect of Bongino exiting underscored both his importance to the base and how central he had been to fueling the controversies and conspiracy theories that animate many Trump backers. Sources close to the White House told The Hill that members of the MAGA movement view Bongino as one of their own. He has built a following over the past decade, and is considered a true outsider with a finger on the pulse of the base who was appointed to a position of power to act on issues they care about, including the Epstein documents. 'Dan is a brand of MAGA that is fiercely loyal to the president. But he's also somebody who has made a heck of a media career going into depth about issues that the base cares about, whether it be things like Epstein or the assassination attempt at Butler,' said one source close to the White House. 'He is considered a trusted voice,' the source added. 'I think this is someone who is honored to serve the Trump administration, but also put his brand on the line when it came to, 'We're going to get to the bottom of Epstein.'' Bongino is a former New York City police officer and Secret Service agent who ran unsuccessfully for Congress in Maryland and Florida. His media career took off during Trump's first term, and he has built a large following through his radio show, his podcast and appearances on Fox News over the years. Bongino has 7 million followers on the social media platform X. When Trump tapped Bongino as second in command at the FBI, it was hailed as a win for the MAGA base to have a true outsider who thought and talked like them in a position of power. 'When Dan Bongino speaks, the base listens,' the source close to the White House said. Bongino has used his massive media platform to echo Trump's talking points and rally support for the president and the MAGA movement. But he has also pushed conspiratorial claims about topics like the 2020 election, the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and the Epstein case. Bongino was among those who spread allegations that there was something nefarious about Dominion Voting Systems in the 2020 election, a common claim among Trump supporters. The voting technology company and Fox News settled a defamation case over similar claims in 2023. Bongino said on his show in 2024 that the government's 'goal' on Jan. 6, 2021 was to 'shut down' efforts by Republicans to question the certification of the 2020 election. He went on to suggest the placement of pipe bombs outside the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee and Republican National Committee was part of that effort. On Epstein, Bongino was among those on the right who amplified claims that there was something nefarious the government was hiding about Epstein's associates and his death. 'Listen, that Jeffrey Epstein story is a big deal, please do not let that story go. Keep your eye on this,' Bongino told his listeners in 2023. But as a government official, Bongino's role has been more complicated. He went on Fox News in May and said Epstein died by suicide. He later posted on X that he was not asking his followers to believe him, but that he was relaying what the evidence said. The Justice Department and FBI issued a joint memo last week that stated Epstein did not have a client list and confirmed he died by suicide in his New York City jail cell in 2019. The findings incensed members of the MAGA movement, who have for years pushed conspiracy theories about Epstein's death and claims that prominent Democrats would be named on a client list. Epstein, accused in several cases of sex trafficking young girls, ran in high-powered circles with figures that included Trump, former President Clinton, Britain's Prince Andrew and a number of other celebrities and ultrawealthy individuals. Epstein's associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, has been convicted of sex trafficking. Bongino fumed over the decision to effectively close the case, according to a source familiar with the matter. Multiple outlets reported that he considered quitting. Though Bongino has remained on the job, he has not spoken publicly or posted on X in nearly a week. His threat to resign raised the specter of a further revolt among prominent conservatives. 'Can confirm it's Bongino or Bondi – and the pick is obvious. Bondi must go,' Megyn Kelly posted on X last week at the peak of Bongino's frustration. One pro-Trump operative likened Bongino's influence to that of Fox News host Sean Hannity or conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh. 'Our base views him as 'one of them,' and so the idea of him walking out of the administration in this manner would certainly cause a portion of Trump supporters to feel dejected,' the operative told The Hill. 'It's less about Bongino specifically and more about the broader symbolism him leaving would represent.' Trump has publicly expressed support this week for both Bongino and Bondi. The attorney general has taken the brunt of the anger from conservatives over the Epstein case, with many arguing she has overpromised and underdelivered on providing more documentation. But the president has also shown he is getting frustrated by the continued focus on the Epstein case, despite it being something that Bongino, Vice President Vance and others in his administration have perpetuated in the past. Trump told reporters Wednesday he would support Bondi releasing 'credible' information related to the Epstein files. But he also complained the focus on the Epstein documents was taking away from the administration's successes on Capitol Hill and elsewhere. 'Certain Republicans got duped by the Democrats, and they're following a Democrat playbook,' Trump said. 'And no different than Russia, Russia, Russia, and all the other hoaxes, they're started by the Democrats. And Some Republicans, in this case I was surprised, they got duped.'

'Good person': Homeless man who Bridgewater rallied around has died. Who was Greg Bobst?
Greg Bobst, a well-known figure in Bridgewater often seen around the center of town in a hockey jersey, has died. Many residents knew who he was and would stop and chat with him. Bobst spent most of his time in Bridgewater Central Square, according to police, where he was a familiar face to the community who cared about him. Recently, Bobst could be seen riding around town on a new electric bike that he bought with funds raised by a GoFundMe campaign, according to its organizer. Bobst, who was homeless, left his residence in February of 2024 to live on the streets of Bridgewater after a dispute with his landlord and another tenant, The Enterprise previously reported. He ended up living in a tent near a construction site. The Enterprise and The Boston Globe previously wrote about Bobst getting a second chance, as a Bridgewater family and the police rallied around him. "It's hell to be homeless," Bobst told an Enterprise reporter in April. Bridgewater Police Lt. Scott Hile said people all over town knew who Bobst was and checked in on him. "The fire department would give him water. Everybody knew who he was and would stop and say hi to him," Hile said. 'Most of the police department knew Greg and have known him for years," Hile said. "Our relationship was good.' "We knew him to always be around town in a hockey jersey," Hile said. "We'd wave and say hi. We were always able to interact with him in a positive manner." On July 1, Bobst died after being transported to the hospital by the Bridgewater Fire Department, according to Hile. 'He was a good person,' Hile said. Greg Bobst's story Homeless man gets second chance as Bridgewater family, cops rally around him Why did Bobst leave his home? In April, The Enterprise spoke to Bobst and Rachel Kadis, a member of the Bridgewater family that took him in temporarily, about his life before he lived in a tent. Kadis said he was renting a room in Bridgewater on Main Street for five years. But, she said, a dispute took place between the landlord, Bobst and another tenant. In just days, Bobst was living on the streets in a tent, she said. Kadis invited Bobst into her home and by April 1, he had a room in her unfinished basement. Bobst lived there until he "abruptly" left on May 18, Kadis said in an email to The Enterprise on July 10. Community rallied around Bobst When Bridgewater Police found Bobst trying to stay warm at a private laundromat, Bridgewater Police K9 Sgt. Steve Kingsley and Lt. John Hennessey III didn't just kick him out and leave it at that. Instead, they reached into their own pockets. "Kingsley paid for a hotel at the Marriott Residence Inn and Hennessey brought him a coat to keep warm," Police Chief Chris Delmonte told The Enterprise in April. "Other officers didn't know more officers were helping out Bobst. They would bring him food and clothing," Delmonte said in April. And Crispi's, an Italian restaurant in Bridgewater, offered to provide Bobst with a fresh meal every Wednesday. The GoFundMe campaign Kadis started a GoFundMe for Bobst titled, "Support Greg's Journey to Stability" on March 11, 2025. She shared Bobst's situation on Facebook. The more she shared, the more people were listening and donating to Bobst's GoFundMe, The Enterprise reported in April. According to Kadis and the GoFundMe page, the campaign raised $17,800.
