Investigators finished with their digging up of the backyard of alleged serial killer Rex Heuermann after police searched the home in connection to the Gilgo Beach case — and walked away with what they described as a “massive amount” of potential evidence
Heuermann was arrested on July 14 and charged with three counts of first-degree murder and three counts of second-degree murder in the deaths of Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman and Amber Costello, according to court documents. He is also a suspect in a fourth killing, of Maureen Brainard-Barnes.
Heuermann's attorney, Michael Brown, said after the initial court hearing that the evidence against his client is"extremely circumstantial in nature." He also described Heuermann as in tears as he told him"I didn't do this," denying the charges made against him.Among the breaks in the case that allowed police to hone in on the suspect were cellphone pings of calls he made to one of the victim's families that traced back to the Massapequa area.
It was previously unreported that the same victim’s cellphone briefly pinged off of a tower in the Massapequa area around the same time. It was that potential clue that led officials to believe the suspect could one day be found in that area. As part of the investigation, law enforcement looked into his internet search history. According to prosecutors, Heuermann repeatedly searched for child pornography, sadistic material and online images and information of his victims. His email account was connected to more than 200 searches between March 2022 and June 2023 about known and active serial killers, the disappearances of his alleged victims, and articles written about investigations into the murders.
