If you follow the link to the FindShannanGilbert site, and go to the interactive google map, you will see the name of SG's driver given. First time I've ever heard his name! Wow.
Well, it wasn't the old driver and Asian fits, not the Filipino name.

Although Massapequa is across the bay from where the bodies were found, the Tobay Beach zone is "Massapequa" in theory.
1. The cell tower at Tobay comes up as "Massapequa NY" on caller ID
2. Tobay is considered Massapequa's beach, but is on the same island, about 2 miles West of where the first 4 were found.
I just wanted to re-direct the convo a bit for those who don't live around here. Although the call was traced back to a Massapequa location, it doesn't mean that it came from the "mainland" LI- he could have been right there on the Ocean Parkway/Oak Beach area.
Great sleuthing so far!
This is an interesting ABC 20/20 video about how the Showtime show dexter is generating real life killing copycats:

Another interesting thing about Jessica Taylor, the only body identified in the Manorville case...she disappeared from the New York Port Authority Bus Terminal, just like Maureen Brainard-Barnes.
The next logical question is did these woman get their tat from the same tattoo artist? Maybe not the same shop but is there someone who does tat's who doesn't own a shop? Like someone in the biz...a John who offered to give them one?Okay, you guys are going to laugh me off the forum for this one, but what the hell is up with the fruit tattoo's?!
Shannan Gilbert had a tattoo of 2 cherries on her left wrist. I filed that info in the vault because it didn't really mean much to me at the time. But now I find this:

On March 3, 2007, a female torso stuffed inside a suitcase washed ashore in Mamaroneck, NY. The legs of the victim were recovered in Long Island weeks later. Inside the suitcase, police found purple color Champion sweatpants, a reddish colored camisole, an off-white longsleeved t-shirt made by Voice and scraps of what looks like a calendar. The torso also had a tattoo of two cherries above the right breast.
(Another body recovered from Hamstead State Park has a peach tattoo on her left breast!)
Are fruit tattoo's really THAT popular?! Call me crazy, but all this strikes me as incredibly weird!

There it is so at one point all these girls probably were under the control of this one PIMP. Who would have that been?
As a tattoo artist, I can tell you fruit tattoos are very common among women wanting a "sexy" kind of tattoo, being that the deceased were all in the business of sex, it's not surprising at all that they would have cherries, peaches, etc. Did anyone else see on findshannangilbert.com, that Megan Waterman's mom has been getting odd voice mails at work from someone purporting to be a policeman from long island that needs to talk to her. The calls are coming as private. She has made long island law enforcement aware, and they know how to get in touch with her and would never call her job according to her. I don't know how to link it, cause I'm a little computer illiterate sorry.
Fruit tats anyone? IDK, I have wondered that too.
I know what a cherry or peach symbolize if it were something to do with, err, female body parts.
Maybe they just liked fruit. I have no danged idea. Anyone with anything better?

I like Dexter....but I'm starting to think it's not such a great idea for a show. Too many sicko's watch and glorify it. Sistah mentioned there is Facebook fan club for the LI SK....I was thinking that Dexter may have played a role in something like that coming about.....seriously not cool. Scary.
