The Epstein Chronicles

The Gilgo Beach murders involve a series of unsolved homicides in which the remains of multiple individuals were discovered near Gilgo Beach on Long Island, New York. The case began in December 2010 during a search for Shannan Gilbert, a missing sex worker, leading to the discovery of four bodies. Over the following months, the remains of six more individuals were found, bringing the total to ten.Key Points:

• Initial Discovery: Four bodies were found in December 2010 while searching for Shannan Gilbert, who went missing in May 2010.
• Additional Discoveries: By spring 2011, the remains of six more individuals were located in the area, making a total of ten victims.
• Victims: Most of the victims were young women involved in sex work. Identified victims include Melissa Barthelemy, Maureen Brainard-Barnes, Megan Waterman, Amber Lynn Costello, Jessica Taylor, and Valerie Mack.
• Common Characteristics: Many victims were found wrapped in burlap, suggesting a possible link and similar method of disposal.
• Investigation: Despite extensive efforts, the perpetrator(s) have not been identified. The case has led to various theories, including the possibility of a serial killer known as the "Long Island Serial Killer" (LISK).
• Shannan Gilbert: Her remains were found in December 2011, but her death is not conclusively linked to the other murders. Her disappearance, however, initiated the investigation that uncovered the other victims.

And then A breakthrough:
Architect Rex Heuermann is arrested for the murders, kicking off an investigation that is still ongoing.
In this episode, we head back out to Heuermann's home where Investigators are once again setting up shop to look for evidence.
