I wonder if he didn't pay taxes because he's broke or because of some other reason. I'm guessing he might not have money for a hot-shot lawyer when he needs one.The architect accused in a string of Long Island killings has been years late in paying hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes, repeatedly filed lawsuits accusing drivers of injuring him in car accidents, and still lives in his childhood home, according to a review of public records and court documents.
Between 2014 and 2022, Heuermann filed four lawsuits in New York courts against drivers who he said hit him with their cars. Heuermann claimed “serious and permanent personal injuries,” court records show. Three of the cases were settled or discontinued, while the most recent one is ongoing.
In an April 2018 deposition in one of the cases, Heuermann discussed his life and work, saying he lived at his childhood home in the Long Island suburb of Massapequa Park with his wife of then 22 years, daughter and a stepson.
At one point in the deposition, when asked if he played sports, he said, “really only thing I competed in was competition rifle."

His arrest must have felt to him like a relief (after whining a bit about his fate). Seems, he would not have endured his life much longer like this. Neither would have done his unsuspecting wife.

If the arrest was a relief to him, he would have confessed. Instead he cried and denied involvement. Crying seems weird to me in this case. Serial killers are often perceived as emotionless when they get caught.
Great insights.
I think, it's an indictment of poverty for a self-employed man (and in addition an architect!), the front and back of the house. And in my mind, it is a little bit creepy already, if I am not willing to have clients and associates as guests in my home. It's not the usual way to have a career (and to have the acc. income).
He seems to be a wimp. Giant man, nothing behind. IMO
Is there a list of acronyms for this sub? I'm just jumping in now (although I see a number of familiar names from forums past!). I know there was a JohnB and a JamesB that had both been the object of speculation in the past. I'm from NYC but we've long had a family vacation place in Suffolk County so I've been following this case for years. Thank you!
Apropos: I'm wondering about his renovation in 2009 (in the middle of time span, when his murders occured, namely 2007-2010), when "the walls came down" (acc. to his wife). Maybe, this "renovation" was urgently necessary because of some contamination/destruction at home through the wife's absence?
