It was the 24-year-old's disappearance that led to the discovery of all the other bodies. Notably absent from Tuesday's evidence release were the 911 calls connected to Gilbert's case. Suffolk County had been ordered to release them years ago and refused, citing the ongoing investigation.he would release the tapes if they didn't interfere with the ongoing investigation. The commissioner reiterated the latter point Tuesday without specifically talking about the tapes.

No arrests have been made. Police revealed evidence in one of Suffolk County's most notorious criminal cases that they've been holding onto for nine years. Police believe initials were embossed on a black belt found at the crime scene, but offered no details on where it was found or how it may have been used. NBC New York’s Pei-Sze Cheng reports.Gilbert's body was found in a swampy marsh about a year and a half after she disappeared.
Those four bodies had been dumped within a quarter-mile span, about 500 feet apart.

Authorities said they were the victims of homicides -- and of a possible serial killer. No suspects have ever been publicly named in any of the cases.
