Gilgo Beach LISK Serial Killer, Rex Heuermann, charged with 3 murders, July 2023 #5

[Gemmie]

One think that could always go wrong with him is his height/weight. I just Googled: the NYC is the most crowded one, the average height of a New York make is 5 feet 8.1 inches. This guy was, what? 6’6”? Plus, broad shoulders. He would be noticeable in any crowd. One benefit of picking women from the street into the car is that he would be sitting and his height, less noticeable. As to shady motels, it is possible, but probably in late 90es. I think after 9-11 everyone in the area became more aware, and it must have included signalization and lights.

I've seen 6' 4"amd 6' 3". The DM has him at 6'6" but IMO they tend to exaggerate so... I'm going with a few inches shorter until I see him officially measured for a mugshot.

Heuermann fit the physical description provided by Schaller, too: He was 6 feet, 4 inches (193 centimeters) tall and weighed 240 pounds (109 kilograms).

Dave Schaller came face to face with alleged Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex Heuermann; 12 years later, his tip helped crack the case

As police comb through the home of a man charged in a string of serial killings in New York, one witness is frustrated it took so long to solve the crime.

The DM saying 6'6": Cops 'confident' they'll charge Rex Heuermann with more murders

So I’ve been going back through the old LISK forums just to see if there’s anything that jumps out to me and I saw this post. My apologies if it has already been answered, but does anyone know if this is true? Did they ever confirm if Melissa’s boyfriend/pimp at the time really could have been contacted by this dude?

Is there a twitter link or news source confirming that Melissa's phone was used for harassment? That would help with ruling in, or out, the Atlantic City escort murders. If none of the victims' friends/family in Atlantic City were harassed after those escorts were murdered/vanished, maybe it's not the same suspect.

I'm curious about Florida, and his trips to re-locate his mom.

That Melissa's phone was used to harass her loved ones is beyond doubt. It's talked about at length in Lost Girls, but more than that, it's in the bail documentation. Page five.

Both Maureen and Melissa had people in their lives who were contacted, presumably by the defendant, after they went missing.

Megan and Amber did not. Amber did not have a phone with her, but Megan's was last recorded on the network in the vicinity of RH's home.

MOO

That's definitely worth looking into, @otto. I don't know if you've seen the great detailed Timeline done. (link below) So much work went into it, and it has the origin info links where the info came from.

Thank You @citizen_sleuth. Your timeline helped me and many others immensely. ​

I swear I saw a video with the SC DA and he seems to say that maybe RH's DNA hasn't been entered into state and national databases... because of laws. That it's only usually done if there's a "conviction". WHAT?? Maybe I misunderstood! I'm trying to find another acceptable link to post...

What a bore. (But I appreciate the link).
But at least now I can pronounce the name correctly as Hugh-er-man rather than Hoy-er-man as I've been mentally pronouncing.

Being Germanic in origin, the correct pronunciation actually IS hoyer-mann. I guess Rex and his fam didn't get the memo

Is that grenade real in the pic at link?

The purchase of the timeshare in LA (2005) could have been a trigger for the AC murders (2006) imo

 

[hutz]

Did Dude seriously thank every LE agency except Nassau? When this property is IN Nassau?

Wouldn’t they be the Nassau agency then? No need to thank yourself publicly.

I’m sorry, not trying to overstep, but did you mean LV, not LA?

**Not human** thanks for clarifying lol

Noted.

Yes, I typed A instead of V

''Authorities are trying to determine if suspected Long Island serial killer Rex Heuermann is responsible for the deaths of four sex workers in Atlantic City, New Jersey, according to multiple reports. Investigative journalist Josh Zeman, the executive producer of “The Killing Season,” weighs in on "Banfield."

July 25 2023

''Since accused serial killer Rex Heuermann was arrested in connection to the Gilgo Beach murders, investigators have been probing into every inch of the suspect’s home and life. The Law&Crime Network’s Angenette Levy breaks down three new shocking discoveries found at the alleged killer’s Long Island home with retired NYPD sergeant Joseph Giacalone.''

This BBM jumped out at me from the article:

His office was mostly staffed by women like myself, young and petite, the girl-next-door type.

Article: My Boss, the Monster

ETA: I just scrolled down to read the comments on that article and ... just wow.

Thanks for the pointer. Comments were interesting!

It's most likely a dummy (that is, with the explosive and fuse removed). Private ownership of explosive devices requires a special permit, and is very closely regulated. If he'd been caught with a live grenade, that would have been shown in a tabloid headline by now.

I used to have a dummy grenade, but gave it to a nephew as a gift.

They weren’t the exist same distance. All located within 500 feet of each other though. All intact and laid out neatly I believe.

I heard that this initial 4 were spaced equal distance apart.

 

[Bree1950]

wonder if he is thinking about what will happen when his DNA goes into CODIS...he may need to start talking if he has murdered in DP states. He can be tried in those states, I don't know how it all works but I hope he's facing the facts.
Las Vegas, Florida, NC, SC...I hope he knows..mOO

Do any of these States still have the death penalty? That may give him more motivation to talk!

 

[Bree1950]

She's posted on Facebook as recently as May 30th of this year.

Maybe she isn’t the person posting?

That’s very interesting that her phone was near his house. If he didn’t murder anyone in the house, he must have had a location near the house?

How one has to pronounce the name maybe important, yes, but I think, it differs. What seems to be important is, that "Heuermann" gets written in so many versions and mostly wrong, it's an agony to see it. Probably it means, that his data are found everywhere and nowhere.

PS: For me the name is sounding 100% German, and mentally I call him like I would call an "Heuermann" in German. I just now have a memory flash: I have known a man with the same name 55 years ago: attractive and being in the building industry (how fitting). Driving hot cars (BMW), but no killer, afaik.
