Map: The site where Valerie Mack was found

Southern entrance

The southern entrance provides direct access to the trail where Mack's remains were found.

It is unlikely that someone drove through this narrow, wooded pathway with dismembered remains in their vehicle unless they knew exactly where it led—especially if it was late at night.

Google Street View shows that there are no street lights along this stretch of road.

We know from previous cases that serial killers prefer to operate in places where they feel comfortable. This is because operating in "unknown territory" can be risky and unpredictable.

Again, this shows that the Long Island serial killer is at least somewhat familiar with this area of Manorville.

Due to the terrain, it is likely that he was driving a truck or another 4x4 vehicle.

Locals have said that people do not drive into these woods unless they have a truck, van, or some other type of off-road vehicle.

Eastern entrance

This Google Street View image of the eastern entrance on Halsey Manor Road was taken in May 2012.

Both entrances are relatively obscure. Neither have street lights.
