Summary

Nearly a year and a half after Shannan Gilbert disappeared from Oak Beach, and with the body count climbing to 10, the search teams suddenly shifted back to the gated community, and a startling series of discoveries was made. More than ever, the victims families and the public wanted answers and a killer found. A dubious shift in Suffolk County politics though hindered the investigation. And a newly installed Suffolk County Chief of Police threw the hunt for a killer into even further disarray. Inspired by the bestselling book "Lost Girls: An Unsolved American Mystery" from Robert Kolker. Hosted by Chris Mass. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
