Aesthetic - Sorry, incorrect answer, both for victims and miles. I'm assuming you subtracted the 14 miles from 59 miles in the question to arrive at the 45 answer you've given, same maths operation for number of victims, good attempt but that is not the actual pattern. It's more to do with a pattern in the attached letter.

Geo Oats - Sorry, incorrect answer, both for victims and miles. Not sure how you came to that answer, but perhaps depending on your definition of life and what trimester the pregnant woman is in you may be correct for victims.

Ferrari Fig - Yes, you are on the closest track. Don't count syllables, count something else, its all in the letter.


ANSWER IS BELOW. Don’t read below if you want to try it first.


























"See. I look, I watch patiently, I’m hiding, quiet for -"

Count the number of letters in each word in each line, they are 3. 1 4 1 5 9 2 6 5 3 -
This pattern is repeated for every line. This sequence is the first 10 digits of Pi. Pi is the serial killers obsession.
There were other clues as well - PancakeBrah got one, the name Cadae Ibfec - that one is supposed to seem like a strange name. An alpha-numeric A=1, B=2, C=3 etc, will give the name Cadae Ibfec as 3141592653.
Religious stuff and consistent injuries was just a so-called red herring.
There were also more clues about the pattern in the description. Here is the answer to the second part where you must apply the pattern (3141592653) to the description.

E.g., "You are Detective Graeme Pietersen. The first victims you found were three (=3) people left under a Pier. All had consistent injuries. Later, fourteen (=14) miles away you found a further (=1) victim. It was a priest with the same injuries. He was found stuffed in a restroom at a roadside Pit stop. Later, approximately 59 (=59) miles from the stop you received a call from a farmer who found a dead couple (=2) buried in his Pig pen."

If you see all these numbers so far they are 3 victims to begin. Then 14 miles away 1 victim, then 59 miles away 2 victims, (with still 3 digits left: These are the 653) – same pattern would indicate 65 miles away and 3 victims."
