Taylor Swift may have cause for concern as human remains were discovered close to her Rhode Island home, prompting an investigation by local authorities.
Locals are already speculating that a serial killer may be on the loose, although authorities have said they don’t believe that’s the case.
Meanwhile, Taylor Swift seemingly has a lot on her plate already as she’s been dragged deeply into close pal Blake Lively’s legal battle with actor Justin Baldoni
A grisly discovery near the sprawling Rhode Island mansion of Taylor Swift has prompted an active investigation by local authorities.
According to WJAR, authorities discovered a human leg bone in Westerly on Wednesday around 9:30 am near Everett Avenue, which isn’t far from Swift’s famed Holiday House.
A local who saw police and medical examiners on site told the news outlet that a leg bone was discovered, and that “finding a leg is very suspicious.” The bone was subsequently sent off to the Rhode Island Medical Examiner’s Office for further investigation.
The news has sparked shock and concern among residents as the area is generally considered to be free from crime, much less murder.
“I’m more aware of my surroundings. I don’t go [to] places that are kind of dim or where I could be alone. Just trying to stay out in public and be vigilant,” a local identified as Taylor Day said.
Speculations are rife concerning what could possibly have caused a human leg to be discovered in such a manner. According to the news outlet, residents are already suggesting a serial killer could be on the loose, although cops say that’s most likely not the case.
“My mind immediately went to all the theories that are being thrown around,” Day told WJAR, referring to the rumors suggesting there’s a New England serial killer on the rampage as 13 sets of remains have been found in Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts since March.
According to Fox News, five have been found in Connecticut and Massachusetts, while three have been found in Rhode Island, with police saying there’s no connection between the bodies that have been found.
“From what I’ve seen or heard, first and foremost, not enough is being put out there, so we’ll continue to create that serial killer idea,” former FBI agent Scott Duffey told the news outlet.
The “Blank Space” hitmaker seemingly has a lot on her plate already as she’s been dragged into the messy court battle between “It Ends With Us” costars Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni.
Lively accused Baldoni of sexually harassing her on the set of the Colleen Hoover movie adaptation, but the actor denied it and filed a $400 million countersuit, where he accused her and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, of trying to wrestle creative control of the film from him.
Baldoni also name-dropped Swift in his suit when he claimed Lively likened herself to “Game Of Thrones” character Khaleesi, and referred to Swift and Reynolds as her “dragons.”
