Human Remains Discovered Near Taylor Swift’s Beachside Mansion

Some suspect a serial killer is on the loose in the Northeast, but police deny these claims.

What appears to be human remains have been found near Taylor Swift‘s beachside mansion in Rhode Island Wednesday morning. According to Westerly police, they discovered what seemed to be a human leg bone in the affluent Watch Hill neighborhood, less than a mile from pop sensation Taylor Swift’s home. “It was probably a couple football fields away from Taylor Swift’s house and the Ocean House,” Westerly resident Taylor Day told NBC10. Day said she happened to be driving by as police began investigating the scene. “I would never expect anything like that—especially not in Watch Hill,” she said. The remains were brought to the Rhode Island Medical Examiner’s Office to be inspected, and police don’t suspect any foul play. Tensions have been high in the Northeast as 12 human remains and bodies have been discovered across three states since April. Some suspect a serial killer is on the loose, though law enforcement have denied these claims. Day said her “mind immediately went to all the theories that are being thrown around,” adding that she tries to “stay out in public and be vigilant.” Swift bought her home in Rhode Island in 2013 while she was dating Conor Kennedy for $17.75 million.
