A missing woman, a chilling 911 call, and four bodies buried in burlap. Dr. Phil investigates how the Gilgo Beach murders began and why no one listened until it was too late.
Gilgo Beach was supposed to be a summer escape but it hid a nightmare. When 23-year-old Shannan Gilbert vanished after a frantic 911 call, her disappearance led police to a shocking discovery: four women buried in burlap along a desolate stretch of Long Island highway.
In this chilling first installment, Dr. Phil unpacks the first wave of victims, dubbed the “Gilgo Four” and the mounting failures that let a killer stay in the shadows for years. From ignored red flags to disturbing patterns in the victims’ profiles, he analyzes how society's bias against sex workers enabled this predator to hunt unnoticed.
Why were these women targeted? Why was Shannan’s cry for help dismissed? And what does the killer’s choice of victims say about how we value some lives over others? Dr. Phil doesn’t just follow the evidence he explores the psychology behind the crime. This episode lays the groundwork for understanding one of the most haunting serial murder cases in American history and what it reveals about justice, vulnerability, and the darkness that hides in plain sight.
