Vigil held for escort Shannan Gilbert

OAK BEACH, N.Y.

On Saturday, friends and family visited the marsh along Oak Beach where search teams discovered her remains.

Investigators say they believe Gilbert, who worked as an escort, accidently drowned after someone saw her running from a client's home nearby.

But Gilbert's mother says she thinks her daughter was murdered.

Mari Gilbert thinks her daughter may have fallen victim to the same killer or killers behind the deaths of ten other people whose bodies were found in the area.
