Two New York City police officers disciplined for "hooker trouble" are apparently being investigated in relation to the murders of four prostitutes whose bodies turned up on a Long Island beach earlier this year.
Turns out the Long Island serial killer is likely two serial killers. Great.
Here's how not to make the world a safer place: The tiny Long Island village of Kings Point has installed cameras at every entrance that will automatically run cars that enter through a criminal database.
Federal investigators are about to start flying planes and helicopters over Long Island's Oak Beach to aid in the search for 24-year-old prostitute Shannan Gilbert, who went missing last May. The search turns more grisly by the day as the remains of victims of a presumed Long Island serial killer are found: A tenth body was discovered this week. Investigators hope high-resolution airborne photography will "help identify skelatal remains that my be out there."
Bodies just keep turning up on Long Island, where police are searching for a serial killer (who is "maybe" a cop himself) believed to be responsible for the deaths of at least four prostitutes. Today, a police dog uncovered a bag stuffed with "upper and lower extremities" about three miles from where the police had found the first four bodies (not to be confused with the second set of four bodies, none of which has been identified and may not even be the work of the same killer, although, come on); a few hours later, cops uncovered a human skull, which would—if the skull and the "upper and lower extremities" didn't belong to the same person—bring the total number of bodies uncovered to ten.
