About this listen

The episode details the investigation into the Long Island Serial Killer, which began with the 2010 disappearance of Shannan Gilbert in Oak Beach. While searching for Gilbert, authorities uncovered a macabre dumping ground along Ocean Parkway containing the remains of several women, many of whom were escorts lured through online ads. The narrative highlights the Gilgo Four victims and the eventual breakthrough that led to the 2023 arrest of Rex Heuermann, a Manhattan architect. After years of investigative delays, Heuermann pleaded guilty in 2026 to several murders, providing a measure of closure to the grieving families. Ultimately, the source emphasizes how a single missing-persons case exposed decades of predatory violence and forced a reckoning regarding the vulnerabilities of marginalized women.
