2010 - Long Island, New York.
In June 2010, 22-year-old Megan Waterman from Scarborough, Maine, disappeared after leaving a Holiday Inn hotel in Hauppauge, Long Island, around 1:30 am.
Six months later, authorities discovered remains on the north side of Ocean Parkway near Gilgo Beach, concealed by brush and poison ivy. Within two days, three more sets of remains were found, all belonging to young women, wrapped in a burlap-like material.
The victims were identified as Melissa Barthelemy, Amber Lynn Costello, Maureen Brainard-Barnes, and Megan Waterman.
New York was gripped with fear as additional bodies were discovered, leading the media to name the perpetrator the Long Island Serial Killer (LISK).
However, amid the frenzy, four families were desperately seeking compassion and support. Little did they know, they would be embarking on a decade-long quest for justice.
Megan Waterman was one of those victims… and this is her story.
This is part one of two.
