Big coincidence that this guy is an army nut. A civilian army nut. I don’t think he served right?
In my opinion it seems like it. The "springfieldman" screen name IMO is related to the Springfield 1903 rifle which many collectors love. It was the US armies standard issue rifle from 1903 to 1936. I always saw pictures of what looked like a Mosin Nagant rifle which was the main rifle of the Russian empire then later soviet union during ww1 and ww2. In another photo I saw its replacement rifle the SKS rifle which was quickly replaced by the AK47 in 1948. None of these rifles are produced new, they ceased production decades ago, and are known as Mil-Surp (military surplus) in the gun world. If you walked into a gun store and asked for a good hunting rifle they are not going to hand you any of these. you would have to recognize them on the wall or ask for them specifically. It could all be a coincidence since it looks like he horded 200 other guns. But My opinion is that he is into, or at least aware of military history.
 
Thank you for this article. It says he has a missing left front tooth. I find this slightly unusual since he was in the consulting business and might have to meet new clients and pitch his services. I wonder if one of his victims kicked him in the teeth.
Most likely, he had an implant or at least a bridge.
 
I wonder if he purposely rented office space in this particular area of the city? I don’t know Manhattan super well, is this area easily accessible from the train station?

Does anyone know if he made the city commute via train only or did he ever drive in?
His office is close to Penn Station, where he would catch the train to Long Island.
 
Agree.
Every once in a while new members appeared in the LISK sub forum here, enjoying too much to derail conversation and divert our attention. I always felt it was one single person creating sock puppet profiles, because IMO they used always same grammar, same syntaxis. They enjoyed themselves too much, again IMO.
Pretty sure LE will check all the sites RH used to post. Will be interesting to know if he posted here. I bet he did. Let’s wait and see.
If there's ANY possibility that he posted here, the moderators should contact law enforcement. They might be able to get information from our end, too.
 
I believe every state is different. I also believe you don’t receive as much from SNAP as you would if you are income qualified
Depending on the degree of disability, some areas also pay benefits to caregivers, if the dependent's disability is severe enough that the caregiver cannot hold outside employment themselves.
 
His office is close to Penn Station, where he would catch the train to Long Island.
"Our system includes over 700 miles of track on 11 different branches, stretching from Montauk on the eastern tip of Long Island to Penn Station in Manhattan."
 
Wow, that was quick! I'm so glad that she is leaving this 'man' and hope that she gets the support she needs to help her heal and process everything, I'm sure this whole situation has been overwhelming.

Also, it's good she retained an attorney (it appears that law firm specializes in criminal law as well) as I'm sure LE will want to speak with her.
 
Good for her. And, poor woman. Divorce is hard enough under normal circumstances. And her circumstances are definitely not normal.
Damn that was quick! I bet she’s been miserable for a long time. I wonder if law enforcement has shared more evidence with her than has been made public. It’s probably been a long time coming.

She probably feels safe from him, for the first time in many, many years.

I said the same thing when I heard about Derek Chauvin's (George Floyd's murderer) wife also filing for divorce.
 
Hey I've got a question:... the belt with the "WH" or "HM" - I am guessing that it is "HM" and that could mean HeuerMann

Is that a significant clue? Was the belt actually found on one of the bodies? Those of you long timers.. please fill me in on when this was released by police and the details of the actual image? What did it come from?

I know the area surrounding RH office very well. I lived in the city until 2003 and at the time area was very very seedy. Sort of a no mans land. Several methadone clinics, and street prostitution was most definitely still happening. That general area is often referred to as Little Korea. Interesting to note when thinking of RH internet search for “Asian Twink” and possible connection to murder of Asian DOE
I don't know if I would call it a no mans land. All of his offices are within eye or earshot of where the Macy's Day parade is held. I worked on 5th a few blocks down from his office for years. The only area I would avoid was Broadway between 27th - 30th because I would get harassed by the men standing outside the wholesale shops. The area is never empty day or night and Koreatown has been one of the biggest nightlife spots in the entire city for upwards of 20+ years. Lots of Karaoke and trendy restaurants. Lots of limos with bachelor, bachelorette, and birthday parties. There are lots of places I could see being referred to as no mans land in Manhattan but the area around his offices not so much.

You're correct about the methadone clinic by Penn/Madison Square Garden. This is a personal anecdote but hopefully conveys the vibe in the area. In 2020 I passed a woman who looked rough outside of Penn. She was talking but was not verbally responsive to questions. Streams of people were passing her - including the NYPD standing about 20 feet away. I alerted them that something was wrong and they just repositioned themselves closer and stared at her. They assured me they had it handled. When I passed by again about an hour later she was just laying there, dead. With swarms of tourists walking into and out of Macy's and commuters heading in and out of Penn. She's now #UP70309 in Namus.

Mannhattan is a weird place - what is considered no mans land to one person is another persons nightlife or shopping spot. FiDi would be my no mans land but tech bros love it!
 
The local paper in Chester County, SC -- the News & Reporter -- has obtained a copy of the search warrant for RH's brother's property. Apparently the warrant gave LE the right to seize "devices utilized to stamp letters onto leather goods," knives, cutting instruments, and "Bounty paper towels specifically from the Bounty Modern Print Collection" (I wonder what the significance of the paper towels is):

The warrant listed a dark green 2002 Chevrolet Avalanche as a "person, place or thing" to be searched. The truck is registered to Rex's brother Craig Heuermann of Rippling Brooke Drive, Chester and was subsequently removed from the property. The warrant states that the truck is believed to have "contraband, evidence or instrumentalities regarding the charge of...murder in the first degree (New York State), murder in the second degree (New York State), patronizing a person for prostitution in the third degree (New York State) and conspiracy to commit said offenses." The vehicle, once obtained, was to be transported to Suffolk County, NY and searched forensically. Authorities began surveillance of the Rippling Brooke Drive location at 10:50 p.m. on July 13 (shortly after Rex Heuermann was arrested in New York) and the warrant said authorities knew the vehicle was present at the location, with state and federal authorities aiding the Chester County Sheriff's Office in taking custody of it. The truck is listed as having been taken into custody.

Under "property sought" on the warrant, authorities put a lengthy list of items, many of which are listed as "trophies" which are personal items belonging to murder victims. That was to include their phones, articles of clothing, jewelry, identification, notebooks, ledgers, Bibles, personal effects and or photographs or recordings depicting the victims. Also sought were forensic and/or trace evidence, including DNA obtainable through fingernails, toenails, animal hair or fur, human hair and human skin fibers, bodily fluids as well as any latent fingerprints and palm prints. These things can be found on "furniture, mattresses, carpets, rugs, flooring, animal cages, crates, litters, playpens, beds, towers, steps (or) clothing." Electronic devices or computers in all their forms are listed on the warrant, along with any records, whether they be physical or electronic in nature. Other property sought is "any documents relating to the recent occupation/renting/tenancy/purchasing of known instrumentalities utilized in the designated offenses."

This could include mail, bills or other similarly situated documents. Broadly, the warrant also mentions "any of the known instrumentalities involved in the commission of the designated offenses including...burlap (the remains of at least one of Heuermann's alleged victims was discovered wrapped in burlap), camouflage burlap fabric, 'jute-like' fabric, hunting blinds, restraints, belts, textile yarns, polyester fibers, cotton fibers," or any variety of tape. Other "trophy" items are listed separately, including condoms, cut distal ends of black leather belts, devices utilized to stamp letters onto leather goods, knives, scissors, cutting implements and "Bounty paper towels specifically from the Bounty Modern Print Collection." Firearms, magazines, cases, ammunition, bullet fragments and shell casings were listed as we "locked rooms, storage areas, vaults, cabinets, safes, closets, containers (including strong boxes, desks, drawers, suitcases, briefcases, boxes, hidden compartments or other such enclosures where items can be kept, hidden or secreted."

The warrant was signed on Friday.

I wish her and her family well.
 
In my opinion it seems like it. The "springfieldman" screen name IMO is related to the Springfield 1903 rifle which many collectors love. It was the US armies standard issue rifle from 1903 to 1936. I always saw pictures of what looked like a Mosin Nagant rifle which was the main rifle of the Russian empire then later soviet union during ww1 and ww2. In another photo I saw its replacement rifle the SKS rifle which was quickly replaced by the AK47 in 1948. None of these rifles are produced new, they ceased production decades ago, and are known as Mil-Surp (military surplus) in the gun world. If you walked into a gun store and asked for a good hunting rifle they are not going to hand you any of these. you would have to recognize them on the wall or ask for them specifically. It could all be a coincidence since it looks like he horded 200 other guns. But My opinion is that he is into, or at least aware of military history.
Yes

Yes, it’s like he has hit all of the mainstays of a military collection. I may have heard Mauser too. I’d think a violent individual using guns for crimes like son of Sam would just use one that he’s comfortable with and that’s it. Most guys with a mosin are harmless gun nerds not gun weirdos
