Now back to the story. On January, twenty third, two thousand thirteen, an unidentified woman, was walking her dog along the shore of Sheep Lane and letting town located thirty three miles from Google Beach during that walk. The dog, sniffed around the sand. Soon, the dog discovered a mysterious bag inside the bag contained human bones, women's pants underwear and a twenty four carrot. Necklace with appendant shaped by PIG Nassau County police said that the necklace was their biggest clue in this case, based on a necklace Police theorize that this Jane DOE may have been Chinese occur,
to NASA County police homicide Squad, detective, Lieutenant John Zaga. The pig pendant could have represented the year of the PIG in the chinese Zodiac recent years, represented by the PIG art one thousand eight hundred and seventy one one thousand nine hundred and eighty three one thousand nine hundred and ninety five and two thousand I thought I also made the following observation about dependent quote: twenty four carrots is big in the asian and indian community jewelry stories in the United States. Most people want fourteen current. This is twenty four carrot and quote that caliber of go is the metal in its purest form, based on the skeletal, remains police estimated that Jane DOE was between twenty and thirty years old Nassau County police that her bones head obvious signs of trauma they were, not sure how long the body had been in the bag. Her killer has not yet been found. Zadig concluded that it was
possible. This Jane DOE may have been a victim of the long island Gill go beach killer, but there was no official link. Yet he said quote: bodies were found near the water, that's a similarity, but there are other discrepancies, so it's much too early to say that we definitely have a car and put the last possible victim has a seemingly clear connection to the girl. Go Beach Keller, but she's not yet officially linked to the case Thirty one year old, yugoslavian woman, Natasha Ugo, was last. Leaving her queens Village home on March Thirteenth, two thousand thirteen. At around four thirty p m. She was wearing a black robe, pink pajama bottoms, a grey hooded, sweatshirt and black boots. You go never return. Police, began to search for you go and she became a known missing person a few days. Her on March Eighteenth, a woman found you goes driver's license, and wallet in the sand of ocean walk on West Gill, go beach
She called nine one one to report it police the area and found you goes car. A two thousand nine Toyota Press on Google Beach. They observed footprints, leading from the beach to the shore, where police found a bathrobe M pajamas the clothing they discovered fit. The description of what you go was wearing when she disappeared. Police began to search for her on June. Twenty. Fourth: two thousand thirteen around nine p m passers by and Google Beach notice to body in the water they watched, the body washed up on the shore police did not say how long the body had been in the water or if the victim had shown signs of any trauma. Three days later, on June, twenty seventh. Thousand thirteen suffer county police identified the body as you go. You goes mother, told police that her daughter had a history of paranoia and you, though, often She was being followed its unclear if that was what motivated you go to drive to Gilgad Beach
According to mental Health, America Paranoia is often accompanied by psychotic disorders. Although there's no official diagnosis, to know what disorders Ugo may have been living with. However, if you go became convinced Some one was following her and is she had paranoia in tandem with another psychotic disorder, We ve been nearly impossible to convince her. Otherwise, if the ocean felt like a safe place to escape her pursuer, she may not have been thinking clearly enough to watch for undertow or to stay close to shore, despite the fact that you goes body was found on Google Beach police told Newsday in June, two thousand thirteen that they don't believe that you goes murder had any connection to the long island. You'll go beach. The case. Her murderer has still not been found. These possible victims of the serial killer are just as important as the bodies that police officially linked to the case.
Because in two thousand sixteen one of these possible victims led police to an unexpected suspect, a police chief, the F B, I became involved in a long island gill go beach killer case in January, two thousand. Sixteen to publicly unidentified agents, began to assist the suffocating police department and plan to do a full profile of the killer or killers. Suffolk, deputy police, Commissioner TIM see me told CBS New York quote: they have mendous technical expertise and resources to help us move. This case forward end quote a few months later, the F b I got involved with the Suffolk County police in a different way. Then Suffolk, county, police chief, James Burke, had been police

Sixteen Burke pleaded guilty to assaulting lobe orchestrating police department cover up and violating lobes civil rights in November, two thousand sixteen Berkeley sentence to serve forty six months in federal prison along three years of supervised release,
even more about Burke's tenure as the highest ranking officer in the force came to light start In December, two thousand fifteen unnamed federal sources told the new post that work refuse to keep the FBI informed and in the loop about the Gil go beach case, because he knew the FBI was investigating him. Suffolk county police has not publicly confirmed that in from Russian rumours also circulated that Burke had used the surfaces of many sex workers at a December fifteenth two thousand sixteen press conference, a sex worker known only as Liane alleged, that Burke was a regular client of hers in two thousand.

Sixteen quote: it certainly put him right at the centre of the pool of suspects for the death of Shannon Gilbert End quote irks own attorney, Joseph Conway called raise claim completely outrageous there's absolutely not one shred of evidence linking him to the guilder beach case.

Please do not believe that her death has any connection to the long island, Google, beach killer, but the search for her body led to the discovery of the Gil go beach victims in two thousand. Ten and two thousand whether Gilbert disappeared after visiting a first time, client named Joseph Brewer on the night of May. First, two thousand ten Gilberts remain were found on December thirteenth, two thousand thirteen in a swampy marshland near oak Beach, then Suffolk County police. Commissioner, Richard Dormer believed that Gilbert may have been under the influence of

She publicly tried to push police to make more progress in her daughters, murder case when it seemed stole out Gilbert believed that her daughter was murdered. She appeared in several documentary tv series that examined the Google Beach murders, including the killing season crime watch daily, and people magazine investigates, but of that, sadly came to a halt on July.

Get Sarah had suffered delusions due to an unspecified mental illness. Additionally, Mary had had temporary custody, sir as young sun, which could have contributed to murder during the trial serves lawyer, said quote, I think Sarah will kill someone in prison. It's almost certain end quote the prosecution claim that Sarah plan to kill Mary after Mary had Sarah arrested for killing a puppy.

On April, twenty seventh, two thousand seventeen and Before your imagination runs wild, no Sarah didn't kill her sister. She, never considered a suspect in Gilberts unsolved murder. Due to marries death. Gilbert no longer had a vocal advocate, and it seemed like her case might fall to the wayside toward his term. Carbon next suspect was identified. We need to discuss the current culture of armchair detectives, who
If we try to solve cold cases online, fascination with true crime has been around since the days of Paul magazines. Like true detective but in the modern age of the internet, the true crime, web universe is vast and interactive. There are many active, true crime websites, tv series and podcast on a subject like going listening to you right now. Amateur internet, slow, its obsess and theorize as a hobby. Deborah harbour wrote about this phenomenon at her two thousand fourteen book, the skeleton crew, how amateurs sleuths are solving America's coldest cases. She told the BBC future in two thousand fourteen that amateur internet sleuthing seems to be an intellect no outlet for many people, she said quote many of these people don't have an outlet in their everyday lives.

Working in jobs for chain stores such as cashiers, for example, or they may be behind the scenes. One of them is a police, dispatcher and quote. This is almost too spected. According to neuroscientist Daniel bore a research fellow at the universe. They have Sussex in England, humans love puzzles. And we love solving them. The human brain is hard wired. Register success when we discover patterns or saw the mystery, so the feeling can become addictive while older generations got there. First, playing pseudo coup over morning coffee. Today's puzzle masters or finding a home on sites like webs sleuth stock com, where they solve murders on their lunch break its rewarding and the can Unity surrounding the salutes only enriches the experience. Even police have out the forms, occasionally in April two thousand fifteen and about a detective asked the web loose dot com forum for help identifying a logo for an unsolved
