but it does sound like cemetery magick. Usually these types of stories I think are just a disturbed person seeking attention or an animal attack that looks particularly weird or horrific. But this one sounds like someone was working a spell. Names on strips of paper stuffed inside a skull found in a graveyard are classic signature points. Animal carcasses found randomly mutilated in the woods are unknown and cannot be automatically labeled as such. But guys, anyone who knows a little carribean magick would recognize this. You don't just write down your enemies' names, dip them in blood, place them in a skull and drop it off at your local cemetery by accident. Whether they are a novice or not, the intention to work the magick is there.
Problem is, they didn't hide the skulls very well and now the poilice have evidence and a list of targets in common with the practitioner. Shouldn't take long to narrow it down, but then it's not much of an actual crime (unless the skulls are human) .

Why are these people always convinced that if there's a skull or bones or blood or dead animals, there MUST be Occult or Voodoo/Vodun or Black Magic or whatever involved? Why can't it just be "some sicko (s) "? GEEZ
Not sure how much stock I'd put in this gentleman's opinion about so-called "occult" pracitices since his "teaching and research interests include bioethics, ethics of war and peace, Catholic social ethics, and the role of religion in democratic public life." (quote from his webpage, linked below)
I'm familiar with the cemetery in question. It's usually a nice, peaceful place. Couple ponds, lots of trees. Some really old sections that are closed to cars. To have it disturbed in such a way makes me sad.

Bridgeport police found a human skull, animal bones and blood in the basement of a suspected marijuana-trafficking base within a month of this find. [Web LINK]
Not that it makes it voodoo.
The article I just gave cites another expert, Henry Schissler, "a Housatonic Community College associate professor of sociology with an expertise in criminology." At least he doesn't hurl voodoo on the table right away as the Catholic college associate professor did...and Schissler gets higher ratings on Rate My Professors dot com.
That it was some sort of ritual could mean that it was anything done by anyone (including some nutso drug dealing dabbler, not that I'm saying that is what it is) , and Schissler wisely leaves it at that. Much better.

An associate professor of religious studies from ***Sacred Heart University*** says the skulls have the "appearance of some sort of voodoo spell."
Well, surprise, surprise, surprise...NOT!!
The University he works for "just happens" to be a ***Catholic*** university. It is no surprise at all that he will say that something so "oogy" is somehow connected to "voodoo" -- without even waiting for the real facts of the case to be revealed!
