He's been quiet in the news media lately, as the situation plays out. There's not much he can do about Shannan's case right now because Suffolk Co is so busy with the cases linked to Rex H.It was my bad.
I just scanned your post and your question was quite clear.
Besides Shannon Gilbert's estate/family which is not part of the LISK case I don't think Ray's in the picture anymore with any of RH's victims.
Reporters are still referring to him as representing some LISK victims families but they're never named and I have yet to see a clarification from Ray.
RH's victim, with the case similarities was sandwiched between JB's victims. I definitely should have explained better! Forgive me.Gotcha. But I'm not understanding why that would have complicated Bittrolff's case. Do you mean because of the similarities in all 3 cases ?
Yes. Just went back to try to include that in my post, but time had elapsed.RSBM
I don't recall her ever saying RH was there. You wouldn't happen to have a source for this would you ?
I also feel that RH was aware of JB, knew IRL, or chatted with him online.
Exactly, it could have been a conversation-starter -- in a direction he particularly liked to go.About that book of crime scene photos....
Perhaps RH had it and periodically referred to it SO he could talk openly about SKs. Like it was a hobby or interest when in fact it was his CAREER....

True.Tangredi's daughter was, allegedly, best friends with Melissa Barthelemy.
Oh, this is something recent. I thought you were referring to the woman who spoke about Burke long ago.Yes. Just went back to try to include that in my post, but time had elapsed.

Police chief partied with Gilgo 'serial killer at crack-fueled motel bash'
DISGRACED ex-Long Island police chief James Burke once partied with alleged Gilgo Beach killer Rex Heuermann decades ago at a drug-fuelled motel gathering, a woman has claimed in a new sworn affida…www.the-sun.com
I admire JR for his sincere caring about the victims and their families along with his long-standing perserverness and hopefully the Karen Vergata case/ investigation had a new light thrown on it from his work.He's been quiet in the news media lately, as the situation plays out. There's not much he can do about Shannan's case right now because Suffolk Co is so busy with the cases linked to Rex H.
He's still being interviewed on podcasts, etc. because he's so knowledgeable about all of these investigations. He's the only advocate attorney who has worked these cases since the beginning, with the exception of the attorney who used to work for him, but switched and started to represent Rex H's children.
JMO, these cases against Rex are where they are today thanks to John Ray's investigations and advocacy.
AE couldn't have made a worse choice in the attorney she hired .
Macedonio was part of the toxic corrupt Suffolk County web, the same politicians that stymied finding the LISK while protecting their own in Suffolk County across the board.
Macedonio also has a conflict of interest by financially benefiting by the deal he arranged for Asa and the Peacock Documentary.

The Curious Case of Robert Macedonio
In December 2008, veteran criminal defense attorney Robert Macedonio appeared in a Suffolk County courtroom, this time as a defendant. “It’s embarrassing for me to be standing here,” Macedonio told…matthewdoig.com
I admire JR for his sincere caring about the victims and their families along with his long-standing perserverness and hopefully the Karen Vergata case/ investigation had a new light thrown on it from his work.
I want to know where Asa was on/around Feb 14th,1996 when Karen disappeared and if she and RH got married in April 1996 before or after Karen's partial remains were found on April 20,1996.
Spouses can not be compelled to testify against each other.
Asa was pregnant in Feb.1996 and yet to be married to RH.
We know nothing about when /where /how AE met RH.
Macedonio keeps repeating prosecutors that AE was away or not in the jurisdiction when each murder was said to have taken place as if this excuses her from not having a "Come to Jesus "
and connecting the dots or at the very minimum realize that the odds are against her belief that he's "not capable of these heinous acts"?
I’ll bet Macedonia sales pitch to AE was something like: Mr Ray, at some point, will be filing a civil suit for millions in damages like the one he has filed against Dr Hackett (Shannan Gilbert). Remember, it’s much easier to win (damages) in civil court and you could become homeless, broke and uninsured for medical.And, to add (it's been mentioned before) the attorney representing the adult children was once John Ray's law partner. Everyone seems to be connected to someone, some how... and I'm not sure it's all for the better.

Post #1095 "dotr"Which of the known victims charged to RH does John Ray represent ? Does anyone know ? I know he doesn't represent Maureen, Megan. Jessica or Melissa's families. Does he represent the family of Sandra Costilla or Amber Costello ?
I thought VH was born in 1998. Is that not correct ?
