It took a terrified 911 call from a young woman named Shannan Gilbert to expose what had been hiding in plain sight—eleven sets of remains scattered along Gilgo Beach, the work of a serial killer who had eluded justice for decades.

In May 2010, Shannan disappeared after placing a frantic 22-minute call to 911, insisting that someone was trying to kill her. She ran through the quiet gated community of Oak Beach, banging on doors for help, before vanishing into the marshland. It wasn’t just her sudden disappearance that rattled Suffolk County—it was what investigators stumbled upon during the search for her. In the thick brush off Ocean Parkway, police discovered a set of human remains. And then another. And another. By the time they were done, there were 11 victims—nine women, one toddler, and one man.

It was a horrifying find, but even worse, it begged a question: How did no one notice this sooner?

For years, the investigation dragged with no real traction. Families begged for answers. Reporters pressed. The public speculated. And all the while, Suffolk County PD maintained tight control over the case. But in the background, something else was quietly rotting—police leadership. Specifically, then-Police Chief James Burke, who was later convicted in a corruption scandal involving the beating of a handcuffed suspect and a massive coverup operation. That kind of mess didn’t just tarnish reputations—it likely delayed justice.

Fast-forward 13 years. On July 14, 2023, police arrested Rex Heuermann, a 59-year-old architect from Massapequa Park. He lived a seemingly ordinary life, commuting to Midtown Manhattan for work and returning home to a quiet suburban street. But authorities now say Heuermann is connected to at least seven of the victims—and possibly more.

So how did they finally catch him?

The answer lies in a long-overdue task force that, within weeks of being formed in 2022 under new leadership, connected the dots that had been missed—or ignored—for over a decade. Cell phone data, burner phones, search history, and DNA evidence from pizza crust—yes, pizza crust—all pointed directly to Heuermann. Turns out, all of that evidence had been sitting in police files for years.

The new Netflix docuseries Gone Girls: The Long Island Serial Killer, directed by Liz Garbus, picks up where justice left off. Garbus doesn’t just walk us through the crime scenes—she drags the system into the light. It’s raw, it’s personal, and it doesn’t let the viewer look away.

Garbus is no stranger to this story. Back in 2020, she directed Lost Girls, a scripted film based on Robert Kolker’s book, which centered on Mari Gilbert’s relentless fight for justice after her daughter Shannan vanished. After Heuermann’s arrest, actress Amy Ryan—who portrayed Mari in the film—texted Garbus in shock: the suspect had once been in her apartment building. A literal brush with evil.

That eerie personal connection sent Garbus straight back to the families. She knew this story wasn’t over—and it wasn’t just about one killer. It was about how a system failed to care until a case landed on its front lawn.

The documentary doesn’t hold back. It features first-person accounts from survivors and friends of the victims, including women who once worked in the sex trade and shared chilling stories about close calls with Heuermann. One woman, Taylor, tells the harrowing tale of being lured into a house where she believes someone else was trapped upstairs. Her story is laced with trauma, but also strength. She, and others like her, speak now because they couldn’t before.

The first episode focuses heavily on Shannan Gilbert, and for good reason. Her case was the catalyst. Her 911 call was the moment that broke the dam. Unlike many of the other victims, Shannan’s disappearance came with undeniable evidence—an actual recording of her begging for help. And even then, it took years for police to release that audio to the public. Without her, the Gilgo case might still be buried beneath the sand.

Episode 2 pivots to the corruption scandal. Burke’s behavior didn’t just stain the department—it made families feel invisible. It validated what victims’ relatives had been saying all along: that their daughters weren’t taken seriously. That police leadership didn’t care. That sex workers could disappear without a ripple. And the fact that a fresh task force—formed under a new district attorney and command—was able to identify a suspect in just six weeks? That speaks volumes.

Garbus’s documentary doesn’t sensationalize. It humanizes. It lets us meet the women whose lives were lost, not just their mugshots. It invites viewers to understand how those in the sex industry looked out for one another in ways law enforcement didn’t. Through Craigslist and cell phones, they created safety plans. They warned each other. They were resourceful, strong, and all too aware of the risks.

The show also pulls back the curtain on the man accused of being the Gilgo Beach killer. Heuermann’s professional life in architecture brought him into dozens of buildings, including some in Brooklyn—right where Garbus and Amy Ryan live. People who worked with him now recount disturbing interactions: his unpredictable demeanor, inappropriate questions, and an unnerving fixation with true crime.

And then there’s the timeline. Evidence used to charge Heuermann had been sitting there for years. DNA from one of the victims’ burlap wrappings. Cell tower pings. A clue trail that should’ve been followed long ago. But under Burke’s leadership, the department was too busy protecting itself.

Gone Girls isn’t just a true crime documentary. It’s a blueprint of institutional failure, wrapped around a story of unthinkable violence. It shows us what happens when people in power ignore the cries of victims and dismiss entire communities as disposable.

It also reminds us what persistence looks like. Families who never gave up. Journalists who kept digging. And filmmakers like Garbus, who knew there was more to tell—even when the headlines stopped coming.

The Gilgo Beach Trial: One Case or Five Separate Trials?

The suspected Gilgo Beach serial killer, Rex Heuermann, was back in a Suffolk County courtroom, and the debate over how his case should be tried took center stage. Prosecutors laid out their argument: all seven alleged murders should be handled in one trial. The defense? They want five separate trials. And if that wasn’t enough legal wrangling, the battle over DNA evidence is just getting started.

Prosecutors dropped a new piece of Heuermann’s past into the mix—he spent about four summers in the 1980s working at Jones Beach. It’s a detail that, on its own, might not seem like much, but when you consider that the remains of six of his alleged victims were found in that same area, it becomes a lot more relevant. DA Ray Tierney didn’t mince words, calling Heuermann a “serial killer who meticulously and methodically hunted down and murdered seven women.”

Heuermann’s defense, led by attorney Michael Brown, has been working overtime to break the prosecution’s case apart. Their latest move? Push for separate trials, presumably in an effort to dilute the impact of the evidence. The argument here is likely that trying all seven cases together could unfairly prejudice a jury. But prosecutors aren’t budging—they want one trial, one jury, one verdict.

And then there’s the DNA evidence. It’s a major factor in this case, with forensic testing linking hairs found on the victims to Heuermann. But here’s the catch—the testing method used by the California lab has never been introduced in a New York courtroom before. That means the defense is arguing that the science is untested, unreliable, maybe even inadmissible. Tierney, however, is confident it will hold up. “This is sound science. It is the future of DNA analysis,” he said. “If the defense wants to call it magic, that’s fine.” In other words, the DA isn’t worried.

For now, Heuermann remains behind bars, awaiting his trial. His attorney says he’s being patient, aware of how crucial these pre-trial hearings are. The defense isn’t in a rush, and neither, it seems, is the court. A hearing to determine whether the DNA evidence can be used is set for March 12, which means the trial itself still doesn’t have a start date. Considering Heuermann was arrested in the summer of 2023, the wait continues.

What did get decided? The trial will take place in Suffolk County. The defense, at least, seems satisfied with that outcome, believing that a jury from the local community is the best option for their client. Brown made it clear: “The residents of Suffolk County, who are familiar with what goes on in Suffolk County, we are looking forward to having them sit in that courtroom.”

So, while one piece of the puzzle is in place, the bigger question remains: Will the prosecution get their single trial, or will the defense succeed in breaking it up into five? And will that crucial DNA evidence make it in? Those answers are still on hold, and for now, Heuermann waits.

Accused Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex Heuermann appeared in a Long Island courtroom as his defense team formally filed motions challenging the case against him.

Heuermann, an architect and father of two from Massapequa Park, is charged with seven of at least ten murders tied to the infamous Gilgo Beach killings. His legal team is pushing to separate the charges into multiple trials and is contesting key forensic evidence that prosecutors plan to use.

His attorney, Michael Brown, filed a motion requesting that the seven murder charges be split into five separate trials. 

The motion proposes that the first three victims be tried together, while the remaining four be handled individually. Brown argued that keeping all charges in one trial could unfairly influence a jury.

"When you have count after count, charge after charge, it leads a jury despite a judge's instruction, it leads a jury to say you know what there's so much there," Brown stated. "He may not be guilty of this but maybe he's guilty of that and it's what we call accumulative effect."

The defense is also challenging DNA evidence obtained from rootless hairs found at six of the crime scenes. Attorney Danielle Coysh argued that the forensic method used to analyze the hairs has not been widely accepted in the scientific community, making it inadmissible under state law.

"It's never been the subject of any judicial testing or any standard so this is the first time in the United States that it will be done," Coysh said.

Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney pushed back on the defense's claims, stating that the DNA method—performed by Astrea Forensics, a California-based lab—is scientifically valid.

"I would submit that this is the next generation of the evolution of the technology," Tierney said. "It's exciting to be at the forefront of that and we look forward to proving the scientific acceptance and effectiveness of this technology."

Tierney has led the charge against Heuermann, working with the Gilgo Beach Task Force to bring charges against him.

The latest development in the case comes after Heuermann was recently charged in the murder of Valerie Mack. Her remains were first discovered by a hunter’s dog in 2000 in a wooded area of Manorville, Long Island. Mack’s decapitated body was found inside a black plastic bag bound with rope and wrapped in duct tape. Both her hands and one of her legs were severed, according to court documents. The rest of her remains surfaced more than a decade later, in April 2011, near Gilgo Beach.

Heuermann has pleaded not guilty to Mack’s murder, as well as the killings of Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman, Maureen Brainard-Barnes, Amber Costello, Jessica Taylor, and Sandra Costilla. Authorities have linked the murders to a string of victims found along Ocean Parkway between 1993 and 2010.

His next court appearance is set for February 18. Judge Timothy Mazzei indicated that a hearing on the DNA evidence, known as a Frye hearing, will likely take place in late February or early March.

Heuermann has denied all charges.

Rex Heuermann, the alleged Gilgo Beach serial killer charged with murdering seven women, is challenging key DNA evidence ahead of his trial. His defense team is urging the judge to exclude nuclear DNA results derived from hairs found at six crime scenes, arguing the scientific methods used are unreliable.

The case, which has captured national attention, hinges on evidence gathered by the Suffolk County District Attorney's office and the Gilgo Beach Task Force, led by DA Ray Tierney. Heuermann, an architect, husband, and father of two from Massapequa Park, denies involvement in the killings.

Tierney addressed the defense’s motion, saying, "We're not going to engage in what ifs. Obviously, that's among many other key components of our case, so we're prepared to defend it."

Heuermann's attorneys filed the motion in Central Islip this week, asserting that the DNA technique employed by Astrea Forensics, a California-based lab, lacks widespread acceptance in the scientific community. This motion initiates pretrial hearings to determine whether the evidence will be admissible at trial.

"If we weren't confident in the efficacy and the admissibility of that evidence, we would not have used it," Tierney stated.

Prosecutors believe the DNA evidence ties Heuermann to the alleged crimes. Successfully excluding the evidence could weaken the prosecution’s case. However, Tierney expressed readiness for the challenge, adding, "We’ll abide by the mandates of the court, we’ll have the hearing, and we’re looking forward to doing so."

The hearing on the DNA admissibility is set to occur this winter. Depending on its outcome and the time required to address other challenges, the trial could begin later this year or early 2026.

Heuermann, who was arrested last year, is also suspected in other unsolved murders connected to Gilgo Beach. However, Tierney clarified, "We don’t make any assumptions, we just continue to work the evidence and see where that evidence leads."

The next court date for Heuermann is January 15, where further developments in the case may unfold.

Accused Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex Heuermann has been charged with a seventh murder, as prosecutors revealed shocking new details tying him to the death of Valerie Mack, whose remains were discovered in 2000 and 2011. Heuermann, a 61-year-old New York architect, pleaded not guilty in court as investigators described evidence linking him to Mack's killing.

Valerie Mack, who was 24 years old and working as an escort in Philadelphia, was last seen in New Jersey in 2000. Later that year, a hunter's dog found her decapitated body in a wooded area of Manorville, Long Island. Mack’s remains were bound with rope, wrapped in a plastic bag sealed with duct tape, according to prosecutors. Her hands and part of one leg had been severed from her body.

More than a decade later, in 2011, authorities found additional remains belonging to Mack along Ocean Parkway near Gilgo Beach. These discoveries were part of a larger investigation into the notorious Gilgo Beach serial killings.

Suffolk County prosecutors stated that mitochondrial DNA analysis played a critical role in identifying a link between Heuermann and Mack. A strand of hair found with Mack's remains matched the genetic profile of Heuermann's daughter, who would have been only 3 or 4 years old at the time of Mack's death. Prosecutors emphasized that his daughter is not suspected of any wrongdoing.

Investigators also pointed to disturbing evidence seized during their investigation. Among Heuermann’s possessions were 350 electronic devices containing violent pornography featuring bondage, torture, and mutilation. Prosecutors described these materials as eerily consistent with the condition in which Mack’s body was found.

A chilling discovery came in the form of a document, allegedly created in 2000, that prosecutors believe served as a "kill plan." Under a section labeled “supplies,” Heuermann had listed items such as “rope/cord,” “saw/cutting tools,” and “foam drain cleaner.” The document also contained a “body prep” section with a note to “remove head and hands.” Investigators said it included the name of one of the locations where Mack's remains were found.

In addition, prosecutors said Heuermann kept newspaper clippings about the Gilgo Beach killings at his Massapequa Park home. Among the items were a 2003 New York Post article titled “Serial Killer Eyed in LI Slay” and a 1993 Newsday article headlined “Body Discovered in Woods.” Prosecutors argued these items were kept as “souvenirs or mementos” of his crimes.

During the court appearance, Heuermann, shackled and wearing a suit, declared, “Your honor, I am not guilty of any of these charges.” Judge Timothy Mazzei ordered that Heuermann remain held without bail.

Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney underscored the importance of seeking justice for the victims. “The lives of these women matter. We, as investigators, understand that. No one understands that more than the families,” Tierney said during a news conference.

Mack’s parents, who attended the court proceedings, did not speak publicly. However, other victims’ family members showed their support by presenting roses to Mack’s parents and expressing solidarity. “They were, and they are, loved. And they are missed every day by those who knew them and who had a strong bond with them,” said Gloria Allred, who represents the families of Melissa Barthelemy, Maureen Brainard-Barnes, Jessica Taylor, and Megan Waterman.

Outside court, Heuermann’s attorney, Michael Brown, challenged the prosecution’s evidence, specifically questioning the reliability of the DNA analysis. Brown stated that hair samples were recovered more than a year ago and argued that the DNA methods used have not been validated in any New York case.

Heuermann, who was initially arrested in July 2023, has also pleaded not guilty to the murders of six other women: Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman, Maureen Brainard-Barnes, Amber Costello, Jessica Taylor, and Sandra Costilla.

The Gilgo Beach killings span decades, with the earliest victim discovered in 1993 and additional remains uncovered as recently as 2011. The case remains one of the most infamous serial murder investigations in New York history.
