This is driving.<br />The River snakes and so it would be approximately a stretch of 15-20miles of river length between the Hennepin Ave. Bridge and the Hwy 52Bridge. The bodies have been found along approximately 15-20 miles of river in the Twin Cities (Saint Paul and Minneapolis.)Monique777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-3923864356003698142009-07-05T23:11:10.362-05:002009-07-05T23:11:10.362-05:00Anonymous: I spoke with someone who would know tha...Anonymous: I spoke with someone who would know that a body can become "badly decomposed" in warm weather in as little as 3 weeks. (I had imagined years.) I shouldn't have assumed when the body went in but it is possible it was as little as 3 weeks before the 22nd.Maybe we will get the facts. The number of bodies being found is adding up but I don't know if this is typical or not.Monique777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-81789717505184026642009-07-05T21:41:49.319-05:002009-07-05T21:41:49.319-05:00They said badly decomposed and they still haven...They said badly decomposed and they still haven't said anything on the identity, but I think that they said that it was male?or maybe that was a different time, I'm thinking that they mean old as in over 2 years old or 5 years or something if they still haven't released anything about it since like what the 22nd. Also where's the US 52 bridge in relation to the rest of st. Paul Minn. anyway? If it's been years how far could the body have floated or is this a fell from the bridge thing, and if so why so long of no one noticing?<br />-LeeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-83196279126934497952009-07-02T05:55:25.919-05:002009-07-02T05:55:25.919-05:00I don't think we should assume when the body w...I don't think we should assume when the body went in. It's a little premature for that.

I was told a body can become badly decomposed if in water for 3 weeks during warm weather.<br /><br />So: Please add to my list if I have forgotten anyone in the Twin Cities found drowned in the Mississippi:<br /><br />-4/12/09 Female body found by Childs and Shepard Road<br />-4/26/09 Male, Ian Talty, 30, found after exploring Saint Paul tunnels<br />-5/1/09 Dan Zamlen found at Ford Plant<br />-5/6/09 Patrick Lee Manifold, 45, found at 3rd Ave. Bridge<br />-5/15/09 Antwane Tucker, 24, found at Hennepin Ave bridge (from St. Cloud)<br />-5/24/09 Edward D. Benjamin,21, found at Lower St. Anthony Falls Lock and Dam (jumped from Stone Arch Bridge)<br />-6/22/09 New body discovered,body badly decomposed in Mississippi near Hwy 52 Bridge in St. Paul<br /><br />Assume the latest body went into the river in May due to decomposition. This means we have 7 bodies in 2 months found in the Mississippi River in the Twin Cities. That is almost one a week.Monique777noreply@blogger.com
