Human Remains Found Near Taylor Swift’s Rhode Island Mansion Identified, No Foul Play Suspected

Authorities have identified the human remains that washed ashore just steps away from Taylor Swift’s Watch Hill mansion in Rhode Island.

In a recently released statement, the South Kingstown Police Department confirmed the remains belong to a 31-year-old Massachusetts man named Eric Wein. The chilling discovery of Wein’s remains was made back in May along Everett Avenue in Westerly, not far from Swift’s seaside estate, famously known as “Holiday House.”

Wein’s car was previously found in South Kingstown on April 10, and he was officially reported missing on April 18. After weeks of investigation involving multiple agencies, the case is now closed, with no foul play suspected. However, the discovery sparked local concern in the normally quiet and upscale neighborhood, known for its privacy and high-profile residents.
