Part three of our Long Island Serial Killer coverage goes into (sadly) familiar territory as we discuss the corruption within the police departments supposed to be responsible for solving this case.

With the serial murders going unsolved for over a decade, we uncover everything that was happening behind closed doors inside the police force that led to the long delay in finding the monster responsible. Ultimately, the case is solved, but at what cost and after how many others were placed at risk?

In part 2 of our Long Island Serial Killer coverage, we delve deeper into the discovery of six more bodies near the Gilgo Beach dumping grounds, including two with a connection to a 1997 cold case. This development adds a new layer of complexity to the investigation and raises questions about the killer's motives and timeline. Are all six bodies connected to the same killer, or are there multiple killers responsible?

Also, we touch on the various conspiracy theories that have surrounded this case for years and all the various avenues explored by both police and internet sleuths in an attempt to solve the mystery for over a decade.

Our final true-crime deep dive of the season focuses on the Long Island Serial Killer, which all begins with the disappearance of 23-year-old Shannan Gilbert on May 1, 2010. The night took a chilling turn when a 911 call captured Shannan's frantic screams and desperate attempts to seek help from neighbors before abruptly cutting off, leaving her fate a haunting mystery.

As authorities launched a search for Shannan, their efforts took a grim turn when they instead uncovered the remains of four other missing women, all escorts who had vanished years earlier under mysterious circumstances. This discovery opened a harrowing investigation into what would become known as the Long Island Serial Killer case (LISK), unraveling a pattern of disappearances and deaths that pointed to a calculated predator at large.

Was Shannan Gilbert's disappearance just a sad coincidence and it was simply fate that led police to the dumping ground of bodies they eventually uncover? Or was she too a victim of LISK who met her untimely death in a similar way to those before her?
