  • Gilgo Four Update: Peaches & Baby Doe
    Apr 25 2025
    Authorities on Long Island have identified a woman long associated with the Gilgo Beach murders investigation as Tanya Denise Jackson, a U.S. Army veteran who was living in Brooklyn at the time of her death in 1997. Jackson, also known as "Peaches," due to her tattoo, was born in Alabama. Her remains were discovered in June 1997, concealed in a container in a wooded area of Hempstead Lake State Park. DNA analysis conducted during the Gilgo investigation linked her to the remains of a female child found along Ocean Parkway near Cedar Beach in 2011. That child, identified as Tatiana Marie Dykes, has now been confirmed as Jackson's daughter. News 12 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • The Gilgo Four: A Deep Dive into Shannan Gilbert's Case Pt 2
    Apr 18 2025
    Author Jesse Pollack joins me to discuss his new book Room 100: Sid, Nancy, and the Night Punk Rock Died and the latest documentary about the Gilgo Four, Gone Girls. One of the primary criticisms is that while "Lost Girls" and "Gone Girls" aim to highlight the stories of the victims, they do not delve deeply enough into their lives. For instance, Shannan Gilbert, who is presented as a central figure, is not explored in a way that reveals her complexities as a person. The documentaries gloss over significant aspects of her life, such as her aspirations to be an actress and singer, her financial struggles, and her experiences with domestic abuse. This lack of detail diminishes the audience's ability to empathize with her and understand the circumstances that led her to sex work. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
