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

[Sundog]

The divorce filing by RH's wife was very quick, and I wonder if there are legal reasons, besides the obvious personal reasons, why it was important to do this quickly, perhaps on advice of her attorney to do this immediately. It would be good to hear from one of our verified attorneys on this to see what they think are legal/financial and other possible implications.

I also wonder what it means to say that the divorce filing indicated that it was to be a "noncontested" divorce. Does that mean that RH agreed to not contest the divorce? Or that the wife has given up any claims for what she would gain from a divorce? Not sure how it applies in this situation.

Not to mention that unless RH had his own darkroom--and I haven't read anything to indicate this was the case--back in the day RH would have had to take that film somewhere to be processed. I'm sure he wouldn't have taken film of his gruesome handiwork down to the Walgreen's to be developed.

I wonder if there was some ability to process film at his office. They may have needed that ability quite frequently for the kind of work they did. I don't know if it would be feasible but IMO it's possible.

I think that noncontested means both sides agree though she's the one who's filed.

And I think that's a smart move. RH is going to be fighting the charges that he's a serial killer. He doesn't have the time or the money to be contesting a divorce, and even with the murders aside, what the investigation has done has thrown up solid evidence that RH is habitually unfaithful and is spending a chunk of his income on sex workers. There's no denying how that's going to look in court, and what a good divorce attorney hired by her is going to be able to do with that.

He could contest it just based on spite, but it looks like he isn't, which is probably one of the few good things he's ever done in his life.

MOO

One thing might be to protect assets so that everything doesn't get used on his defense costs.

It's possible.

It seems to me though, that contracting with a film developing company to process film at a set turnaround time and price.

Edited to add: Ooops! Got distracted before I finished my sentence lol

It seems to me though, that contracting with a film developing company to process film at a set turnaround time and price would be more cost efficient than setting up an inhouse darkroom and having to purchase supplies for it continually.

This makes sense.

Some company that doesn't care what they develop and print when it comes to photos.

"The strategy was to catch him by his workplace and take that long ride from 35th and 5th out to 30 Yaphank which could be a 1.5-hour ride and see if he could talk and give up anything about his role in this investigation," Harrison continued."

"As soon as we informed him he’d be placed under arrest, we put him inside the vehicle, read him his Miranda rights. He asked for a lawyer and that was the end of the conversation," Harrison said."

Suffolk County Police Commissioner Rodney Harrison recalled the moments after Rex Heuermann's arrest, including what he did -- and didn't -- say to police.

I bet he got drunk and bragged at bars, and to SW he thought wouldn't be believed.
When I bartended people confessed the craziest stuff to me.

I agree about 'confessions to the bartender'--I heard some wild things when I bartended in the 1980s in Wappingers Falls, NY, near home of IBM. I mean WILD things. lol

Well, my thought process didn't go THAT far but I see what you mean.

I think he'll stay quiet for a while but ultimately I think he'll crack. His ego will get the best of him & he'll talk.

Regarding the alleged 200+ guns/weapons found in Heuermann's basement, I live in a Southern state and know a few gun dealers, and not one of them has anything NEAR 200+ weapons in their stock/collections. I mean, 200+ guns/weapons is just crazy!

maybe it means that his atty suggested it to preserve assets

I know the basement room was pretty large, but they must have been packed in there like cords of firewood. Not, like, one vintage gun per case, nicely displayed, but literally piled up. How else would they have all fit?

Quick Question:
Does anyone here remember or have a link to the street location where Melissa B was involved in some altercation in Manhattan- where she lost her phone?

I took the time to compile a list of all building permits (available here) obtained by Rex Heuremann during his career (spanning from 1992 to present day) to see if there are any discernible patterns between his work and the murders and noticed a few things.

From 1992 to 2023, RH obtained 238 building permits -- all within the 5 boroughs of NYC -- for various projects ranging from demolitions and porch construction to entire gut renovations of large-scale apartment buildings and commercial spaces. Most of the permits he obtained were in Manhattan, with a large proportion of them in Midtown.

Throughout the 31 years he has been a practicing architect, there was only one year in which he didn't obtain a single permit -- 1996. RH did not obtain a single new permit between December 1995 and August 1997, despite not having any large ongoing projects which could conceivably account for the lack of new permit applications. Interestingly, the bodies of the Fire Island Jane Doe and the dismembered torso of an unidentified woman known as "Peaches" were found during this professional hiatus on April 20, 1996 and June 28, 1997, respectively. <modsnip - not an approved source>

Additionally, on March 5, 2007, RH obtained a permit for a $200,000 contract at 115 1290 1st Avenue in Manhattan. While I was unable to obtain any information about when construction at the site actually commenced, it is worth noting that 1290 1st Avenue is less than a mile from the 59th Street Bridge, where Maureen Brainard-Barnes' cellphone pinged at around 11:56 p.m. on July 9, 2007 <modsnip>

I am looking for Queens and Rex Heuermann. There is a connection in my opinion. Good job pulling his past permits.

It's a common midtown bridge that has no toll to get in and out of Manhattan. The no toll thing is why most people use it.

No toll and no Easy-pass record more importantly in his case.

If the divorce is final before RH’s trial, she can be called to testify. Correct?

“Since Rex Heuermann is a serial sexual sadist, he was not satisfied by killing, and likely torturing, his victims,” Dr. Carole Lieberman told Newsweek of the architect, 59, who pleaded not guilty last week to multiple murder charges in connection with the deaths of three women over a decade ago.

“He needed to taunt their families with calls to gloat about having killed their loved ones, in order to inflict pain on
them, as well.”

“Is this Melissa’s little sister?” an anonymous male voice asked the victim’s then-16-year-old sister, Amanda, during one phone call.

“Do you know what your sister is doing? She’s a .”

“[He said that] he killed her; he raped her,” Amanda recalled of the eerie exchange in an interview with PIX11 News in 2020.

I wonder if filing for divorce will prevent anyone including her as his partner in a potential financial lawsuit in the future?
