They assume that these people are dead. There is no reason put forward in the article that gives us a reason to believe these people are dead. Their foot has been severed, but that doesn't mean the person is dead. However, the coroner calls all the victims deceased, which tells me, the coroner's office probably knows more than they've shared in the news release.
Ten have been linked to missing persons, but, from what the article infers, there hasn't been any corpses found.
Weird stuff.
