Each of the murders were committed

within sight of a body of water, like a river or a public bath.

had something to do with him using the sewers to move around,

"I baptize you with water,

Beecham.

We know heights are important to him.

The mountains are where he found modest relief.

But I'm beginning to think that water,

in the form of purification, plays an equally important role

in his morbid...

His morbid what?

Ritual.

It's only a theory,

to select the location for his next murder.
