A string of unexplained drownings in the Midwest developed into the Smiley Face Killer theory in 2008. It proposed that athletic and affluent young men were being targeted by a network of organized perpetrators. This theory was initially met with skepticism, but after a series of suspicious drownings in Chicago and Austin, many are claiming this is the return of the Smiley Face Killers.

The victim profile remains the same across the decades. College-aged males who are last seen in the early morning hours at venues like clubs and bars, they are frequently intoxicated and isolated before their bodies are recovered after tragically drowning. Some claim these bodies are unceremoniously discarded in bodies of water. Multiple victims are discovered within the same day or week, some having disappeared from the same location. Most of these cases have been dismissed as accidental drownings, or they remain as cold cases.

Since 2022, 11 suspicious drownings have occurred in Lake Michigan in Chicago, Illinois. Since 2023, 4 suspicious drownings have occurred in Lady Bird Lake in Austin. The reports of these deaths have sent shockwaves through these communities and across social media, with many suspecting that unidentified serial killers could be targeting young men in these areas.

The Smiley Face Killer theory had its beginnings with the 1997 death of Patrick James McNeil, who was recovered from Upper New York Bay. NYPD detective Kevin Gannon believed that the evidence pointed towards a much more sinister cause. Upon investigation, Gannon and his collaborators, D. Lee Gilbertson and Anthony Duarte, expanded the geographic location and uncovered countless cases with similar victimology and methodology. They unearthed a series of unexplained drownings and began to explore the cold cases of Lawrence Andrews Jr., Adam Falcon, Gerald Smith, Brian Welzien, Christopher Jenkins, Jelani Brinson, Todd Geib, Thomas Booth III, Cullen Fortney, Nathan Kapfer, Jeffrey Geesey, Jared Dion, and Lucas Homan. These cases were used for their book "Case Studies in Drowning Forensics," where they officially proposed their theory.

These cases have many similarities to each other and to the recent drownings in Chicago's Lake Michigan and Austin's Lady Bird Lake. The victims were successful and intelligent young men who mysteriously disappeared after a night out. They were found in the water a great distance from where they were last seen. Most were found with alcohol in their bloodstream, but Gannon and Gilbertson argue that the concentrations weren't sufficient to cause severe intoxication, especially considering that alcohol is produced as a byproduct of decomposition. In several cases, GHB was detected in the victims' blood, strengthening the hypothesis that they were drugged. The book argues that the physical characteristics of many of the bodies are not consistent with having drowned, but with having been killed before being dumped in the water. The researchers believe that the homicides are committed by an organized gang of criminals who use the dark web to communicate with each other.

Despite the skepticism, the Smiley Face Killers theory has gained a significant following. Many people, including the victims' families, believe that the theory offers a plausible explanation for the mysterious circumstances surrounding the deaths. The theory has been featured in several documentaries and TV shows, and it continues to be discussed on social media and online forums. The recent deaths in Chicago and Austin have reignited the debate about the theory and have led to renewed calls for further investigation.

The recent deaths in Chicago and Austin have added a new dimension to the debate and have led to renewed calls for further investigation. Whether the theory is true or not, the deaths are tragic and have left many families searching for answers. As the debate continues, it is hoped that further investigation will shed light on these mysterious deaths and bring closure to the victims' families.
