But RH owns land in South Carolina, which also has the death penalty. I was wondering if poster is thinking RH had an accomplice who may have moved to Florida after the bodies were located. That's the only connection to Florida that came to my mind and I wanted to hear poster's thoughts.

I feel like we really need to find out what all Rex got up to in SC...since he seems to like to operate from home, the property and any other properties need to be carefully scrutinized. I still wonder if the young woman who says her mother was dating Rex before she disappeared is still working with LE to solve the case of her missing mother. I would really like to see him put on trial in SC. mOO
I have no idea.
My reply was to post # 46,
An informative no nonsense podcast, a keeper and looking forward to future ones as the case unfolds in court.
It articulately cleared up a few things I was confused about in relation to the defense wanting separate trials and Tierney's ( in his own words) argument to the judge why they want all the cases tried together and the evidence from one case will be used as evidence in another case etc.
I also liked the input from her guest, the criminal profiler .
Thanks again.
The death penalty. And it’s frequent implementation in FL. I’d say Texas also but it’s just not in. RH’s sphere it seems.
SC would be good too.
I don’t think he has hanged out much in non- east coast states such as OK, AL, UT…

Gilgo Beach murders’ body count stops at 7 — as feds release $13M in frozen funds to prosecutors: DA
Suffolk County prosecutors said they’re done investigating accused Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex Heuermann — and are now focused on getting a conviction at his trial.
nypost.com
There comes a time when we have to say that, a case has an investigation phase, a grand jury phase, a pretrial phase and then a trial phase,” Tierney told reporters after Heuermann’s latest court appearance.
So, that investigation phase, in regard to this case, is pretty much closed,” he said. “That is not to say we’re not investigating other unsolved cases in Suffolk County which we will be doing all along.”
Another segment
On Wednesday, Tierney said the prosecution received a boost with the recent release of millions of dollars in federal funds that were being withheld due to a past corruption probe in the county.
“Unbelievably, seemingly out of nowhere,” he said. “The investigation is over and we’re going to be getting access to that money. Last time I checked it was about $13 million.”
Exactly what I've been thinking.
I have noticed some comments in the very many posts I haven't caught up on, that some people think Peaches or other early murders are not related due to body parts found elsewhere. I'm dumbfounded, I think the first 3 or 4 known cases were 1990s (?). It's shown he experimented with different disposal methods, some he buried them in 3 different places. Some he didn't care if the tattoos were found, others he tried to remove body parts with them on. Some he placed in bags, containers, bedding and only 4 placed together in burlap sacks.
Considering the police say Rex had internet searches that proved he kept up to date on what was said about LISK etc, I think that influenced how and where he disposed of the bodies.
Also I don't think we know if he carried on after 2010 (?) And just found a new dump site, or used an old one that's undiscovered.
Is Heuermann charged for all of the LISK murders? I just watched the first of "The Killing Season", then I got on here, then I looked back and saw this show was made in 2016. So, I'm a little out of date. Is there a place that I can read the more current info about this case? I remember watching the show in about 2011 about the first case, where they tried to track everywhere the first girl went the night she turned up missing.The new details of Heuermann's alleged familiarity with the site appears in a 34-page document from prosecutors opposing a defense motion that seeks to separate the charges into multiple trials.

My thoughts at first when Amanda and her sister were working together, they may have crossed paths with the killer, and he saw one he liked. So, then he might have made a date with her alone (Melissa) and picked her up then. I would have cross-referenced their double dates against Melissa's solo dates after the double dates, and checked out those guys. It couldn't be that many.
Oh sorry, one other thing I wanted to say. I don't think his familiarity with the site, should have anything to do with splitting up the case. I think that, if the bodies had a certain degree of similarities in their pathology, and the fact the first 7 or 8 were hidden so close to each other should be a deciding factor that these cases should NOT be separated!!! I mean, once the very first body was buried there, nobody knew she was there, except for the person that put her there. So, who else would put 3 more bodies in the exact same spot? Even in a one acre spot it would be astronomical to get 4 out of 4 right next to each other. And I don't know how big Gilgo beach is, but I've been to other beaches out on Long Island and it is huge out there. There are a lot if square miles out there to hide a body.And someone found the same area within what 20 feet for the first 4 and then 3 or 4 more really close by? How far is it from the city out to the end of Long Island? A hundred miles approximately? That's a lot of land to bury people, and they have 7 or 8 bodies in real close proximity? I think that, and the pathology of the murders should be enough to save the tax payers money, and do these all in one case.
However, that really doesn't matter. I've seen them charge serial killers before, that they figured they were probably guilty of 10 or more murders, and they'd just charge them with 1 or 2 murders. That way if something gets screwed up, they could go back and try 'em again, for one of the others. But, if they win the first one, and they get life without parole, don't try the other ones, unless you get a horrendous outcry from the public. Then they can decide if they wanna go on with the others. If they get to split it up, just try 'em for one at a time, until you get consecutive sentences for life. But of course, that's my opinion, with what I know from this first episode, and a few comments from this thread. Thank you for reading
No he hasn't been charged with all. There were at least 10 official victims.
They are concentrating on the murders they have charged with and preparing their cases, so will not be looking at the other victims right now. The important thing is making sure he is behind bars.
There are numerous things on YouTube including ABC's Eyewitness to Gilgo Beach.
Netflix, Gone Girls: The Long Island Serial Killer.
None are going to be to to date as it is an ongoing case.
The Killing Season is actually a good place to start as long as you keep in mind that some things on there aren't linked and more is known now. I haven't watched it for a long time, but don't they talk to the victim's family and friends on there? That is important.
Some of the victims are deposited in 3 different places. At least one dump site can't have been discovered as Peaches head hasn't been found. That could also mean more bodies somewhere.Oh sorry, one other thing I wanted to say. I don't think his familiarity with the site, should have anything to do with splitting up the case.

We don't know if LISK stopped in 2010, when one of his dump sites was found, he was still using that. Plus he knew there were more police searching and watching. It may have scared him into pausing, or he may have started using somewhere else to put them.
We know RH was searching and watching activities for updates as well as searching for the victim's families.
I hope the other victims don't get forgotten and they still keep trying to find evidence as well as finding the identity of the three Does.

The Killing Season is an interesting watch, but it was written prearrest, so bear that in mind. There are a lot of rabbits the documentary makers chase, and a lot of theories that don't fit what we currently understand about the case now. There's an amateur profiler, in particular, who makes a lot of very definitive statements that we know are nonsense now. He stated as fact that the earlier victims like Valerie and Jessica absolutely could not be the same killer as the GB4 because they were the work of something he labelled as a 'torso killer' who was territorial and so forth. Well, DNA says otherwise.

Gilgo Beach serial killings suspect Rex Heuermann faces charges in the deaths of seven women in New York. His defense team has been arguing that certain DNA evidence should be tossed out, and the judge has set a hearing date for March 28. Heuermann's defense also wants to split up the cases, but the judge has not yet ruled on that request.

With the help of a growing amateur web sleuthing community, filmmakers Josh and Rachel uncover a tale of deceit and ignorance that takes them deep inside the world of online escorting, in this clip from Season 1, Episode 1.
Hearing tomorrow on DNA evidence. Wish it was live streamed, sounds interesting.
