Silver~ The cases you just named were just what I was talking about! They were camping or at a function with other people!

It is apples and oranges. Those cases DO NOT fit in with the criteria of these cases whatsoever.
I threw up the two cases of college-aged men drowning in cold water after drinking, unbeknownst to their friends -- so yes, they were "separated" from their friends -- and they were white/college-age/prolly athletic build/been drinking/not found for weeks -- so they "fit" the criteria -- MY POINT BEING that the criteria is far too open and cases that are very likely accidents are getting mixed in with cases where there is possible foul play. There are dozens and dozens of cases of college guys drinking, wandering, drowning during cold weather.
Another point being, frats die at the hands of other frats rather often. I've never even heard of a hint of black sorority girls trying to kill white men before.
Speaking of apples and oranges -- by the declaration of a nationwide smiley face gang with "pods" operating together and separately, the detectives have quite neatly mixed up apples and oranges by lumping together cases separated by a decade or more, by mixing in cases of troubled individuals, by mixing in cases where accident seems probable, by mixing in cases that are nowhere near the clusters.
ckhagen -- I'm from N.O. One of the cases linked to the smiley face gang is that of a Tulane student. My thought about why there are less Southern drownings being listed is that the water does not deliver that cold shock. Until you've fallen into 46-degree water (or lower), you have no idea what it does to you. I do recall a lot of drowning deaths in Lake Ponchatrain over the years, actually --
I think some of the cases are foul play. I just really doubt the nationwide pod/gang angle.
And for those who think those who are in/were in the Greek system would ALL be able to, or want to, keep secret about hunting down and killing people -- as a former Sorority Sue, well aware of the faults of the system, I just find that truly unbelievable. And the system is so easily infiltrated, just a couple years ago we had a book by some journalist who posed as a pledge who "uncovered" rampant lesbianism and sex parties in the sororities she visited -- no way this would be "secret" for long with all the blabbermouths and disgraced former members and pledges.
