In this compelling episode of True Crime with the Sarge, former NYPD Cold Case Squad commander Joseph Giacalone is joined by acclaimed documentary director Josh Zeman and renowned forensic death investigator Joseph Scott Morgan to examine one of the most overlooked victims connected to the Gilgo Beach murders: the Asian Male Doe discovered in 2011. The discussion focuses on cutting-edge forensic science, including the emerging use of microbial DNA and the postmortem microbiome to help estimate time of death, refine timelines, and potentially resolve long-standing uncertainties in cold cases. Morgan breaks down how bacteria evolve after death, what science can realistically tell investigators, and where limitations still exist. Zeman provides critical context on the Gilgo investigation, victim marginalization, and why this case matters today. This episode explores: • Who is Asian Male Doe and why his case remains unresolved? • How microbial DNA may transform death investigations • What forensic science can and cannot determine about time of death • The broader implications for the Gilgo Beach investigation and cold cases nationwide If you follow the Gilgo Beach murders, forensic advancements, or the future of cold case investigations, this is a must-watch conversation that blends science, investigative insight, and accountability. #truecrimewiththesarge #crime #truecrimecommunity #truecrimepodcast #gilgobeach #lisk #asianmaledoe #longislandserialkiller #longislandcrime #longisland #coldcase #coldcasefiles #coldcaseinvestigation #coldcases #coldcasebreakthrough
