Rex Heuermann is expected to plead guilty to seven murders. But the Gilgo Beach Killer case has always involved more victims than one defendant can account for — and a plea doesn't resolve the rest.

Eric Faddis joins me live to examine what's left on the table. We talk about the remaining LISK victims whose cases have never been charged to Heuermann. We dig into the Bittrolff reversal — prosecutors once publicly attributed Sandra Costilla's murder to a different convicted killer, then charged the accused Long Island Serial Killer instead — and what that dramatic reversal means for the credibility of the investigation.

We discuss Shannan Gilbert — the woman whose disappearance started the search that uncovered everything — and why her case sits in its own unresolved category. Faddis explains what happens to cold cases when the public pressure disappears after a headline resolution, and whether the alternative suspect argument carries any legal weight going forward.

We also get into the behavioral profile — the alleged timing of killings when Heuermann's family was traveling, the planning document, the internet history — and what it tells us about how someone allegedly maintains a compartmentalized life across nearly two decades. And we close on the fundamental question: does a Gilgo Beach Killer plea without a trial serve justice, or does it just serve efficiency?
