How Investigators Cracked The Gilgo Beach Serial Killer Case


Listen Later

For over a decade it was the Long Island cold case that couldn't be cracked. Nearly a dozen people killed, their bodies left near Gilgo Beach on the island’s South Shore. A major break in the case finally came this summer when a special task force arrested a 59-year-old architect from Long Island and charged him with murdering several of the victims. Rex Heuermann, who has pleaded not guilty, is currently behind bars. Joining us to discuss how a possible serial murderer could have been living among us for so long are - criminologist Dr. Scott Bonn, who accurately profiled the accused killer back in 2011; Anthony DeStefano, legal affairs and criminal justice reporter for Newsday; and Terri Austin, legal analyst and host of the nationally syndicated show Law & Crime.
