Police believe whoever dumped four bodies on a Long Island beach may have found at least one of his victims on Craigslist.

This week police searching for a prostitute from Jersey City named Shannan Gilbert stumbled upon the decomposed bodies of four women in the brush on Oak Beach, 40 miles east of New York City. They now believe one of the bodies is that of 22-year-old Megan Waterman, a prostitute who used Craiglist to arrange meetings with clients and had not been seen since June 6. Authorities suspect all four bodies dumped on the beach were killed by the same person and the FBI is now searching for links between the victims and other unsolved murders in the area. In 2006, four bodies were found on a beach near Atlantic City.
