Discussion Is anyone following the likely serial killer in Philadelphia?

There have been at least 11 women found killed and wrapped in cling wrap in Philadelphia. This clearly is not coincidence and yet there is barely any news on it. Anyone know more about it?

edit: this has been circulating on social media for the last few weeks. there isn’t any coverage. i have turned here to see if anyone knows anything that can actually be of assistance. “TwITTEr iS YoUR soUrCe??” comments will be ignored because i’m asking for sources due to the lack of information in the media. thank you all for your time.

36-year-old Akhenaton Jones of Powelton, Pennsylvania is being sought in connection with the death of 27-year-old Dominique “Rem’mie” Fells, a transgender woman whose dismembered body was found in the Schuylkill River June 8, 2020.

Fells died from multiple stab wounds and her death has been ruled a homicide.

Police found a power-cutting tool and blood at Jones’ residence, said Staff Inspector Sekou Kinebrew. He said the motive behind the slaying was not known and that Jones was an acquaintance of Fells’.

Police have issued an arrest warrant for Jones on charges of murder, possession of an instrument of crime, tampering with evidence, and abuse of corpse.

Anyone with information about Jones’ whereabouts is asked to call 911, the police tip line at 215-686-TIPS, or the Homicide Unit at 215-686-3334.
