On June 28, 1997, a chilling discovery was made by a father and his daughter during a walk in Hempstead Lake State Park, Lakeview, New York. They stumbled upon a dismembered body that would set off a complex investigation.

The torso, enclosed in a Rubbermaid container, was accompanied by a red towel and a floral pillowcase. The victim’s head, both arms, and legs below the knee had been severed and were missing from the scene.

Detectives soon noticed a distinctive tattoo depicting a peach with a bite taken out of it. To track down the tattoo’s origin, investigators published its image in a national tattoo magazine, hoping an artist would recognize their work.

Steve Cullen, a tattoo artist from Connecticut, came forward, recalling he had inked the tattoo on a young Black woman, approximately 18 or 19 years old. Despite this lead, the woman’s identity remained a mystery, and she was dubbed “Peaches,” suspected to be among the Long Island Serial Killer’s victims.

In 2011, a toddler’s remains were found and later identified in 2016 as being linked to “Peaches.” Yet, her true identity continues to elude authorities.

Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack investigate “Peaches” and her toddler to see if they are part of the Gilgo murders.
