Blue Print for Murder /// Part 2 /// 811 Jan 01, 2025

Blue Print for Murder /// Part 2 /// 811

Part 2 of 2

www.TrueCrimeGarage.com

The Gilgo Beach Killer, The Long Island Serial Killer, L.I.S.K., and the list of names, and monikers goes on and on. These are all names given to an unidentified serial killer that is responsible for four murders, maybe eleven unsolved homicides, and likely the number could be higher. These names refer to a series of murders that took place from 1996 to 2011 in which the remains of eleven people were found on the South Shore of Long Island, New York. From the public’s perspective, this all started when Shannon Gilbert went missing in the early morning hours of May 1, 2010. Her disappearance triggered the finding of four sets of remains off of Ocean Parkway at Gilgo Beach. These victims became known as the Gilgo Four. By May of 2011 police had discovered six more sets of remains in the area. But the truth is that this nightmare started long before Shannon disappeared.

In 2023, an architect then 59-year old, Rex Heuermann was arrested and initially charged with three of the murders. Just this month he was charged with a seventh homicide. This week in the Garage, we talk about what the police found in Rex Heuermann’s home, specifically a planning document. This is a kill document, one that many are calling Rex Heuermann’s Blue Print for Murder.

This week we are joined in the Garage by Stephen and Joyce Singular. The Singular’s have been investigating the JonBenet Ramsey murder case since early 1997. Stephen Singular’s 1999 book Presumed Guilty: An Investigation of the JonBenet Ramsey Case, the Media, and the Culture of Pornography is an eye opening read. In which, Singular discusses some of the lesser known characters of the case, his findings, and magnifies the problems with the murder investigation. An updated Kindle version was released in 2016 with new information and some intriguing leads.

For more information on Singular’s books such as his book with FBI retired agent John Douglas and a previous recommended reading selection from True Crime Garage - The Spiral Notebook: The Aurora Theater Shooter and the Epidemic of Mass Violence Committed by American Youth go to www.StephenSingular.com
