Gilgo Beach LISK Serial Killer, Rex Heuermann, charged with 6 murders, July 2023 #12

My apologies if this has been answered here before ~ I know Peaches torso was found separately from some of her extremities ~ torso found in Rubbermaid container at Hempstead Lake Park, missing head, both arms and both legs below the knee.

What remains of Peaches were found along Ocean Pkwy? I believe her head was never found. Based on the remains that were recovered, has her approximate height and weight ever determined?

To the best of my knowledge, none.

This Newsweek article states they got married in 1996 and their daughter was born a year later. There's more specific info out there, though.

It is possible to think someone may have been protected and the case left open until an innocent could be accused.

On the other hand, it's also a huge coincidence that JB's DNA was found on both murdered women. From the way the DNA was discovered through familial DNA from the brother, it doesn't sound as though JB was targeted and "fitted up" from the beginning.

Since Sgt. Joe mentioned that for him the brother's testimony about helping move a body was convincing, I'm leaning in that direction too.

But with RH's indictment, lost evidence and the possibility of the brother's testimony being coerced by a corrupt DA, can we be certain "beyond a reasonable doubt"?

Am grateful you're mentioning this again. I'm going to have to watch the more current episodes on that show because I cannot find this anyplace else, and that would do it for me as well. There's not much out in the media on the JB case at all, jmo.

Or knowing the avalanche like the back of his hand. Don’t need to “get to know” a new and different car. Especially if you are concealing things. Or he could also really not like change. Imo

Or because it was the vehicle that best fit his height and girth. He is extraordinarily tall and broad, every vehicle's interior dimensions are somewhat different. Some vechicles better accommodate people with a long torso, others better accommodate people with long legs. So it could be as simple as it was the one that fit him the best physically.

MOO.

Agree, the timing of Karen Vergata's case is very interesting, if RH is responsible for her death. That close to RH and Asa's wedding makes it unlikely, but not impossible that AH was out of town. It's also possible she had her own apartment and not yet living with Rex.

I doubt Asa will ever testify against her husband. If he's ever connected to Karen's case, it will have to be with additional evidence.

Maybe asa went away on a bachelorette party

I remember to have read, that he knew AE from school already. I've found no link. It seems to have disappeared ....
Could be both: knowing from school and getting into more contact at the 24/7.
Did she like the things, he bought, and noticed, that they were on the same wavelength?

If JB had no dna to test and they got him through familial dna , then Why didn't they do that with RH?
Also I read in Murder Inc that someone was charged with changing DNA samples!

Well, Karen's legs were found there. So at least once it was used.

Fire Island John Doe also so at least 2 bodies

They were married sometime in April 1996 and VH was born in October 1996.
When RH was arrested on July 13, 2023 daughter VH was reported as being 26, she's now reported as being 27 yrs old.

VH went to school with my niece from elementary on through high school and she was born in 1998.

 

[Friday13]

To the best of my knowledge, none.

Thank you. I was wondering if she fits in his “petite” preference and thought maybe they’d be able to approximate based on the torso and partial legs.

VH went to school with my niece from elementary on through high school and she was born in 1998.

That's what I thought, but I couldn't find a source to back it up.

I've read articles stating AE went to Farmingdale High School, a different school in a different town than RH.

I thought the witness said that AE was at the home the night KV was there they were having a swingers party, the cop had sex with RH and told witness they were playing a game when she saw KV at window.

Why did she choose "Eleven Maiden"?
Clairvoyant? s/


"The remains of 11 people were found in and around Gilgo Beach on Long Island's South Shore, New York between 1993 and 2011, in a series of killings known as the Gilgo Beach serial killings. The first remains were discovered in April 1996, when a pair of severed legs wrapped in plastic were found on Fire Island, and the woman became known as "Fire Island Jane Doe". The search for a missing sex worker in 2010 led to the discovery of the remains of the other 10 people. "

If JB had no dna to test and they got him through familial dna , then Why didn't they do that with RH?
Also I read in Murder Inc that someone was charged with changing DNA samples!

WOW! just wow. The problem is that if DNA had been changed, why not change in all 3 the DA wanted solved, not just two?

They could not do familial DNA on RH because no one in his family had DNA in their file. No one close to him had been arrested and convicted of a suitable crime since the DNA collection began, is the way I understand it. Only after RH's arrest and court-ordered DNA swabbing was his DNA available for comparison to DNA found at crime scenes.

What concerns me is that since apparently several DNA samples were on both victims that with the "Lost Evidence" something that would have identified RH with the victims has been lost or thrown away.

However, the more I learn about JB's cases, the more I believe he was well charged and convicted. He is basically new to me.

I've read articles stating AE went to Farmingdale High School, a different school in a different town than RH.

They both could have attended BOCES together which sent students from
Massapequa Farmingdale
Levittown. I previously stated it was at carmans road school but I was wrong that was a facility for the handicapped. My apologies.

 

[LadyL]

Is RH referring to himself as Derek, maybe?

but he had a note that referred to him picking up Derek for the airport

 

[Chingaling]

The FBI has never been able to find 1 example of a snuff film. That's pretty good evidence, at least to me, that this whole genre is pretty much an urban legend.

Ever heard of Faces of Death?

This is the first I’m hearing that he had sex with the cop. That’s wild.
