If there is a hell, accused serial killer Robert Zarinsky is burning there right now.
Zarinsky died at South Woods State Prison in Bridgeton on Friday, Nov. 28, 50 years to the day after he shot and killed Rahway Police Officer Charles Bernoskie.
Zarinsky, 68, was serving a life sentence for the 1969 murder of an Atlantic Highlands woman and was soon to be tried in the 1968 homicide of a 13-year-old girl who had been beaten, strangled and raped for another killing a year earlier. Authorities in three counties suspect Zarinsky in the murders of several other young women during the 1960s and 1970s.
