Rex Heuermann, 59, has since been arrested The sister of a victim who died at the hands of the alleged Gilgo Beach serial killer hopes the suspect "rots in prison for the rest of his life." Sherre Gilbert's sister, Shannan, was a sex worker who disappeared after visiting a client at a home in Oak Beach, Long Island, in May 2010. Her body was discovered by officers in December 2011, along with four other prostitutes in their 20s. They were dubbed the "Gilgo Beach four." No arrests had been made in the 13-year case until Thursday night when 59-year-old Rex Heuermann wascharged with first and second degree murder in connection with the deaths of three victims, Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman and Amber Costello. Authorities say he is also the "prime suspect" in another killing. Sherre said she's "overwhelmed" after a suspect was finally arrested, admitting she always believed a serial killer would be caught. She told NBC News: "I am overwhelmed but relieved that they finally caught him. "It's been a long time coming and I never gave up hope that one day justice would be served. The suspect deserves to rot in prison for the rest of his life. "He destroyed many lives so while it won't bring our loved ones back, it does help that one less monster is off the streets and he can't ever hurt anyone else." John Ray, a lawyer representing the family of two of the victims, revealed they were given a warning a week ago that an arrest was forthcoming. He told the Daily Mail that Heuerman's name was one of those they were looking into. The lawyer said: "We had a tip about a week ago that they were about to do this. We have two names but we obviously don't want to say unless we're 100% sure." Mr Ray believes the discovery of a man's remains might have led to the arrest on Thursday evening.
