The Long Island Serial Killer
Here is a fascinating review of the horrific crimes that have taken place on Long Island in New York, and interviews with family, friends and parties who were involved with the victims.
I have been asked to share my opinion of Michael Pak, the driver of Shannan Gilbert, a prostitute who was last seen by Michael Pak.
Michael Pak is definitely noteworthy. What he says in this interview simply doesn’t make sense. The very first thing I notice about Michael is that he is very nervous.
Michael says he was asked to get Shannan out of the house she was in. He recalls that “She freaked out. She says you guys are trying to kill me, and she went behind the couch and crouched down, so I went there and I looked there, and I said ‘Shannon, what are you doing?'”
I believe Shannan was afraid she was trying to be killed.
Michael then wonder if she is messed up on drugs, so he says he tries to test her by asking her if she’s seen the movie Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. I find this very odd.
Then he recalls she said yes, so that satisfied him. He says, “Oh, okay, so she is coherent, she’s just acting.”
What?! Acting? Who would think this? Does this make any sense to anyone? This sounds absurd!
Michael continues, “And then like I heard a 911 operator…uh…a…a lady on her phone…and that’s when I realized…oh…she’s on the phone with 911.” When Michael says this, I sense incredible nervousness.
Michael says, “Oh, she’s trying to set me up, she says you guys are trying to kill me, she wants me to leave, so I left.”
Next Michael says after he left the house, he saw Shannan running from the house and he turned to follow her. Why would he call for her and follow her if he left because he thought she was going to blame him for trying to kill her? This is a big contradiction. And what are the odds that Shannan feared she be killed and she is?
Michael’s story makes no sense.
I do believe that Michael was looking for Shannan, but I’m not buying the story he is giving us.
What does this mean? It simply means I don’t believe Michael Pak is telling us the true story of what happened, but I cannot say anything more than that. Was he involved in Shannan’s death? I do not know. I definitely would need to see more to find out why he is lying. The reasons at this point could take one in many different directions….

Justin DiPietro: Father of Missing Ayla
Many of you have requested that I review this video and share my thoughts. Unfortunately, I have not been able to follow this case. From what I understand to date, Ayla went missing from her father’s home on December 17, 2011 when he was at home with two other adults in the house.
Ayla apparently suffered a broken arm prior to her disappearance, and DiPietro told Ayla’s mother a different story than he is now telling police about how she broke her arm. And the last development is that police have found blood in DiPeitro’s basement believed to be that of Ayla.
When I watch DiPietro in this interview, I see very little emotion on his face, though I do see flickers of anger and frustration, and indicators of stress.
What strikes me most in this interview is how DiPietro talks about how the night Ayla was supposedly abducted from the house. He says, “It was (shoulder shrug) just a normal night…there was nothing…I just put her to bed and…just…just a normal night.”
Why doesn’t DiPietro have any details in his memory? He doesn’t give us anything at all, which is notable to me. Why isn’t he reliving the last night he had with his daughter? It begs the question was he even watching her that night? He also isn’t showing stress and urgency in his plea for his daughter. He is completely calm, which I find notable.
He licks his lips, which is an indicator of stress and/or nerves.
It’s interesting how DiPietro self-censors himself when he says, “I can tell you what I’m not…I can tell you I love my daughter. I would never do anything to harm my daughter…” It was like he was going on direction with his sentence, and then he changed directions. Why did he have a need to self-sensor himself? I was expecting him to say, I can tell you what I’m not…I’m not a killer…but he stops just short. Was that what he was going to say? You have to wonder, and why couldn’t he say that, if he is innocent?
Another time, DiPietro also says, “It feels like a helpless situation at some points, but…” If he truly believes his daughter was abducted, why does he feel helpless? Why isn’t he organizing searches, banging on doors and looking for himself. Has DiPietro being doing searches?
While things aren’t looking positive for DiPietro, I need to see more before I can draw any conclusions. He is clearly on my radar and I think he needs to be looked at further, without question.
Expression of the Day
While this isn’t a universal expression, I do think it is understood by all. It’s the classic, “I’m not feeling well” look. That’s how I feel today. I went to the walk-in clinic this morning after feeling under the weather this weekend, and the doc says its a viral bug of sorts. Just has to run its course! I hope to be back soon!!
