Cops bungle most everything. Any big break on any big case they seem to break just lands in their lap by luck. Check out what may be the biggest cop fuck up and it's the Green River Killer.

He's a fucking scary motherfucker. That kill checklist was chilling; he's been doing this for a long time, clearly.
Also, when you see pics of him (like the one at OP), you might think he's a short, fat fuck...but apparently he's 6'5" and sort of a hulking monster. Can you imagine seeing that the last thing you see before you die is that face while he tortures you in many gruesome ways (some of which include carving you up while still alive)?
And apparently, his daughter has delved heavily into macabre and violent art, which she's posted online. They didn't talk about this in the Gone Girls Netflix special, but some of her art depicts dissection of a corpse and other gory shit. You can google it...it's out there.
Also, the art was made and posted online BEFORE her father was arrested.

That’s incredibly creepy, R4.

Apparently the local cops were really corrupt for most of his killing spree. IIRC the police chief or the DA went to prison.

I thought the drone footage of the ocean parkway area was very helpful in terms of allowing someone not from Long Island to visualize the geography. It’s difficult to describe in words.
I wonder what the detectives are looking at now. My understanding is that once they’d read the file, they knew where to look for blood in the basement. How many DNA samples are there in that basement? Are they comparing missing person timelines to the wife’s trips going back to the 90s? Where were his investment properties exactly? Why don’t they know the identities of the lady boy and toddler from the DNA yet? Are they interviewing the creepy daughter to see if he involved her at all? Did either Rex or Jimmy Burke have any connection to Shannon Gilbert’s John? And how did RH find a wife as ogre looking as himself?
So many questions

Not victim blaming, & just an observation:
If you must work as a whore for a living, NEVER go alone without a bodyguard/driver. NEVER agree to more than one client per outfit call, & NEVER, EVER, agree to meet with a man of this size, and for chrissakes, don’t do drugs or drink with your Johns, & consider that this is one profession where legally concealing & carrying isn’t a bad idea.

R14 I still believe that crooked police chief killed that boy and stuffed rocks down his throat when he was a teenager. Wouldn't be surprised if he were Rex's accomplice.

Burke was a New York City police officer in the 1980s. He later began working for the Suffolk County Police Department in Suffolk County, New York. In 1995, a Suffolk County Police Department internal probe found that Burke had "had a relationship with a woman engaged in prostitution and drug dealing, and had engaged in sex acts in police vehicles while on duty and in uniform".
Burke was appointed chief of the Suffolk County Police Department by Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone in 2012 and served in that capacity until 2015.
During his tenure as chief, Burke supervised the investigation of the Gilgo Beach serial killings. Burke's work on the Gilgo Beach case, "including a decision to end cooperation with the FBI", drew criticism from other law enforcement officials.
In August 2023, Burke was arrested for public lewdness, offering a sex act, and unlawful solicitation after allegedly exposing himself to a male plainclothes park ranger at Vietnam Veterans Memorial Park in Farmingville and propositioning him

R16 oh my he was a sex addict. But what’s really significant is he was allowed to fail upwards. After the 1995 investigation and findings, how was ever allowed to become chief of police of Suffolk County, which is bigger than most US cities. Complexion for the protection?

R16 You forget to mention Burke's imprisonment for beating the shit out of some guy who stole a duffel bag full of sex toys and, supposedly, snuff films out of Burke's car. That's what ended his career.

The Burke story is probably as interesting as the Heuermann tale. I want to read this book:

He probably snapped them all like twigs, R30.
His wife would bring back Nordic sweaters for his office frauen. No lie. I saw it on 60 Minutes.
Allegedly, she’d fly back to Finland or Denmark every summer for a few months at a time, & take the daughter with her. This was the time he used to solicit these girls, kill them, & dump on the Island, within the bogs, wrapped in burlap.
He was a lazy fucker, & wouldn’t even bury them, which makes one question why he bothered with the burlap in the first place.
He would have kept on going, had he not been caught. My prediction is that he’ll eventually get shanked by some little Puerto Rican in the yard.

From the first time I saw Burke on the local news I knew he was slime and with a lot of dark stuff going on. The report wasn't even about him, he was being interviewed. Something about him reminded me of John Wayne Gacy, especially when he was in his uniform.

Between all the vocal fry and duh long guyland accents, it's a bit annoying to watch. The accents I understand, all the vocal fry I don't, even some of the guys have it.

I wanted to post sooner but I was sent to the corner for two days for reasons that are unclear. It might have been my snarky, though funny, comment about St. Michelle O.
What is really interesting about this is that there is a serial killer living and working among us in Midtown, a place many around the world are familiar with. It shows this underside of normal life that is fascinating. It hints are a nefarious relationship between Burke and Spota. Something was going on, the case languished for years until there were new faces in power.
