The details surrounding Andre Isaac’s murder and disappearance don’t follow the Long Island Serial Killer’s methods, but are disturbing, nonetheless. As mentioned, Isaac went missing in November 2002. Suffolk County Gilgo Beach Homicide Investigation says that an ice skater found Isaac’s head on January 25, 2003, stuck in the ice of the Forge River — an approximately 1-hour drive east from Gilgo Beach. There was a bullet hole through one temple, per Pix11.
Less than 15 months later a landscaper discovered human remains on the grounds of a newly built property that used to be a wooded area about three-quarters of a mile inland from the mouth of Forge River. DNA analysis revealed that the remains and head belonged to Andre Isaac. This DNA evidence was then linked to other remains discovered earlier in December 2002, only about a month after Isaac went missing. Those last remains represent an outlier, as they were found over 60 miles west of Gilgo Beach in Far Rockaway, Queens, south of JFK Airport. Isaac, it should be noted, vanished from Brooklyn, west of Queens, per Pix11.
It’s easy to envision what happened to Isaac when he died, going from Brooklyn to Queens, being killed along the way, and having his remains carried east to Gilgo Beach at a time when the Long Island Serial Killer hadn’t honed his methods. This is speculation, however, as police remain unconvinced that Isaac’s case connects to the victims on Gilgo Beach.
