Marie Cilento
My name is Marie Cilento. I met Mr. Alba in June 2003, when I brought to him, what I believed to be unusual circumstances surrounding the death of my brother. Not only was Mr. Alba compassionate and understanding, but, more importantly, he believed in me and the fact that there was more to my brother's death then the NYS Police were willing to see. To this day, the NYS Police still feel nothing out of the ordinary took place.
Mr. Alba interviewed many, many individuals; uncovering more than the naked eye could have possibly seen. Uncovering more than the local authorities were ever willing to find.
Our family will be eternally thankful to Gil Alba for listening when all we wanted was to be heard. For allowing our family some piece of mind, when we thought we'd lost our minds. There isn't a doubt in my mind, and heart, Mr. Gil Alba deserves more than the "Investigator Of The Year" award.
