Chicas desaparecidas: El asesino en serie de Long Island

One of the better true crime docu-series that I've seen in awhile. I went into it completely blind and had no idea about the case or any of the details involving it. This was a very pleasant surprise. It's very well done and is incredibly shocking and entertaining. I only wish that they'd have waited a bit until after the accused trial for a proper ending to it. I definitely felt a little disappointed by how it ended. Overall this is one of Netflixs' better true crime series that I would highly recommend to anyone interested in the subject. Like I said before, it would have been extremely satisfying to see the trial and the conviction of Red and really don't understand why they didn't wait until they could do an episode on that before wrapping it up, but maybe there will be a follow up. Knowing Netflix probably lol.

While in the beginning looks like lost case , after 2 episodes starts adding more caracteres and police heads . Surely the end will surprise you . Excellent investigation for more than 30 years . I would say the third episode is the best , so it's worth it the wait !

Police , FBI, relatives , tv news from the past, a very well documented series . If you saw another one in the past about the same killings , this one has new information that will blow your mind . Even the smartest psicopats are getting caught at some point .

I'm sure there is room for a second season , wait and see . Enjoy the series .

The pointless, unhelpful commentary by the two journalists in the first episode made me want to just stop watching this series. Robert Kolker was especially annoying, using the purple prose from his silly articles, such as "A gigantic meteorite hit Long Island." I would suppose he was referring to the impact of the discovery of skeletons. He also had nothing to contribute in the way of factual information about the case.

The other journalist, reporter Jaclyn Gallucci, wasn't much better, making her comments center on herself: what she was thinking, etc. Maybe this was an attempt to avoid a narrator, but narration may have been better than having two self-important journalists making comment.

Shannan Gilbert had been working as an escort, she vanishes, the eventual search unearths a series of bodies, it becomes apparent that a serial killer has been getting away with multiple murders without the alarm being raised.

Reading some of the reviews, I'll take one point on board, it is a story that has been explored multiple times, and there comes a point where you think, enough now, but for someone unaware of the ins and outs, it's a good documentary.

Episode one was pretty factual, it felt quite informative, procedural so to speak, I appreciated the way they told the story of the poor victims, the same couldn't be said of episodes two and three, they really did go for the gotcha moments, but the stork itself is so unbelievably shocking, it does actually work.

There were some really eye opening moments, including various interviews and some interesting footage.

The final episode felt a little ambiguous at times, but that's the nature of the story itself.

It's terrifying to think now many crimes Rex Heuermann got away with, The Police and Authorities really did fail the victims and their families in spectacular fashion.

7/10.

Corruption, and self sabatoge in the search of the girls who were victims. Its upsetting for these families to of gone through this all because the people who should of helped were the problem. We can see this throughout the world but especially for these families, and the poor victims who were tossed on the side for decade. I hope the guy never comes out of wherever he was placed. For this many victims and assault and torture he was mentally unstable and should not be allowed in society. It is uncurable. I dont think his jail time will ever be enough, he knew what he was doing and did it on purpose knowing they were searching for him.
