>> He took away somebody’s mother, somebody’s daughter, somebody’s sister, and not just one person, multiple individuals.
>> Huerman is currently the prime suspect for the murder of Moren Brainer Barnes.
And for investigators, an obvious question still hangs heavy.
If Human is a killer, are there other victims? >> I mean, isn’t there a real concern that there may be other victims out there? >> Always.
Who’s to say that there’s not more bodies out there that we need to investigate? >> In 2011, police did find other bodies along Ocean Parkway.
After finding the Gilgo 4, there is victim number five, Jessica Taylor.
an escort who went missing in 2003.
Another set of remains police called Jane Doe number six is now identified as Valerie Mack also working as an escort.
Number seven, to investigators surprise, they found a toddler girl.
Number eight, an Asian male dressed in women’s clothing.
Number nine, a female skull belonging to Karen Vada, an escort who disappeared in 1996.
Number 10, female remains from a victim cops nicknamed Peaches because of a tattoo on her torso.
Although her remains were found six miles away, police say DNA confirms Peaches is the mother of that toddler.
None of those victims has been linked to Huerman.
Is it that you can’t connect him yet or you believe he probably isn’t the person who killed these other other individuals? >> I don’t know.
>> Investigations also spread to Las Vegas in South Carolina where Huerman owns property with detectives there taking a fresh look at cases of missing women.
And then there’s Nikki Brass.
>> I remembered him because one, he’s massive and how many massive like 6’5 architects work in Manhattan, live in Master Pico.
>> You’re going from brown and blonde.
>> Now a hairdresser, Nikki claims she may be one that got away.
She told us she used to work as an escort.
And while we cannot substantiate her story, Nikki claims she can’t shake her memory of the night she says she was solicited for sex by Rex and says she fled the restaurant where they met.
>> I had never gone anywhere and like felt fear.
My gut was telling me I needed to get away and I’ve never had that before.
Nikki says what she found most disturbing is that Huerman himself brought up those bodies bound in burlap by Gilgo Beach.
>> He wanted to like really get into it.
Like he asked me how I thought they could get rid of the bodies without being caught in that area.
And I said, “I’ve never been over there.
I’ve never even seen Gilgo Beach.
” And his response was, “Well, it’s really dark and desolate.
I’m John Ray and I’m the lawyer.
>> Nikki is now represented by John Ray, an attorney who is also representing Shannon Gilbert’s family.
In December of 2011, investigators finally found Shannon here in the marsh, not far from Gilgo Beach.
But they don’t believe she was murdered.
It’s an unfortunate incident, but right now we believe that she just ran into the marsh and unfortunately drowned.
>> A former investigator told us that he believes Shannon was high on drugs that night and says her death was an accident, something John Ray just can’t believe.
While he doesn’t think Shannon was a victim of Huerman, he does believe she was murdered and points to that 911 call.
It absolutely makes no sense that she’s found where she is except that someone else put her there or killed her there.
>> While questions remain about Shannon’s last hours, there’s no question she’s the reason so many families may finally be getting answers they have long waited for.
We spoke to her sister Sheree in 2011.
If my sister, you know, didn’t make that 911 call, I don’t think that these other women would have been recovered either.
>> Now, investigators hope that with an arrest, they can give the victim’s families who stood with them a sense of justice and of peace.
I’ve gotten to know the families and I’m inspired by them and I’m impressed by their patience.
A local legend has it that this place, Gilgo Beach, was named for a skilled fisherman called Gil.
These silver gray waters, once his secret hunting ground.
Today, this beach area is better known for a relentless hunter of human prey.
A serial killer whose chilling presence can still be felt in the ocean air.

>> He said, “If anybody talks to anybody about this, I’ll kill him.
” >> Did you want your stepfather dead? >> No.
The >> plan was murder.
