Gilgo Beach LISK Serial Killer, Rex Heuermann, charged with 7 murders, July 2023 #17

[Eaglette]

I am definitely Team Tierney !!

Tierney scored a big win in the case in September, when Mazzei ruled that the DA’s office may use the DNA evidence at Heuermann’s murder trial.

On Tuesday, Tierney doubled down on his refusal to consider a plea deal for Heuermann – and said he shared the judge’s impatience with the pace of the case.

“The judge was very explicit, and we are ready,” he said.

Tierney is doing well, but he is standing on the shoulders of giants like Rodney Harrison, IMO

I'm rewatching the Killing Season. The amount of discussion there was about how many killers were responsible and the people we now know are connected to RH, Valerie Mack, Jessica Taylor, Sandra Costilla, and the GB4... It's just insane. Heuermann must have killed so many more.

I'm glad he is going to be held responsible. But I also really wish he would plea and tell officials about all his murders. So many unsolved in the area, seems like some have to be connected to him. I hope Keith Jesperson's notes about butter will get to Rex.

With over 50 hotel/motel room key cards found in his possession, I can only imagine how many victims there are. IMO, these were his "souvenirs".

Burke’s attorney James O’Rourke, of Smithtown, spoke to Newsday in the hallway of Suffolk District Court in Central Islip Thursday morning after his client’s still pending case on 2023 charges of public lewdness and indecent exposure was briefly heard before Judge Eric Sachs. Burke was not present.

"He’s willing to cooperate with the district attorney’s office because he recognized the significance of the Heuermann case and if it can help him…,” said "’Rourke. “He’s s"ill at heart a law enforcement individual. He’s gone through hell and back. But he still has a concern for law enforcement. And of course, he has a sentimental attachment to the Suffolk County Police Department. Think about it, he was there for how many years and he was the chief of the department. So you don’t lose that. And he never did. He never did.”

LIttle did I know what my co-worker was really doing

When Muriel Henriquez found out the hardworking family man she worked with for more than a decade was the accused Gilgo Beach Serial Killer, she was gobsmacked.

www.dailymail.co.uk

He had seemed like a normal family man who worked hard and got on well with his co-workers but secretly he was allegedly leading a double life and went undetected for years.

Muriel Henriquez had worked with Rex Heuermann when she was office manager at his architectural design firm in Manhattan, New York, in the early 1990s. She was gobsmacked when she discovered he had been arrested for allegedly being the Gilgo Beach Serial Killer.

Speaking exclusively to The Daily Mail she recalled how they'd bicker about politics, argue about the bookkeeping and chat about his love of guns and his trips to the shooting range.

Classic behavior of a guilty man.

Classic behavior of a guilty man.

What makes it classic behavior of a guilty man? Can you elaborate?

While it may be just a trope from literature, some say if you’re being held for a crime you did not commit, you tend to eat and sleep poorly. Where the guilty do the opposite.

Like a little boy, happy to be back with daddy, he feels safe and full and falls into a restful slumber. imo, speculation.

''What had unfolded seemed to have no effect on his appetite - he spent his first night in custody eating French fries, onion rings, peanut butter crackers and washing it down with a Coca-Cola.
He then managed to sleep for more than five hours on a chair as he awaited arraignment.''

There's likely some truth to that. At the same time, he must have been hungry after his surprise arrest on the streets of NYC where he was headed for din-din I imagine and was rudely interrupted by all those cops! They likely only offered him junk food at the station also. And he must have been exhausted from the day's shocking events, because he smugly thought he was one step ahead of LE. The world knows he's guilty anyway so what he eats and how he sleeps is the least of his worries IMO.

Accused Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex A. Heuermann contacted at least 60 sex workers more than 500 times in the four years leading up to his 2023 arrest, prosecutors alleged in a Tuesday court filing that provides the most detailed account of the case against the Massapequa Park resident to date.

The district attorney's filing also reveals that investigators found Heuermann had searched for images of family members of alleged victims "mourning the deceased" before his arrest. Other searches made under an email account tied to one of Heuermann’s cellphones include attempts to access pornographic "snuff" films depicting murder and "bruised and impaled women," the court records show.

A Suffolk police detective concluded that more than a thousand Heuermann searches reviewed by investigators established there was "clear evidence" he was a "sexual sadist" receiving pleasure from the physical and psychological pain of others, according to the motion…

Prosecutors also urged Mazzei to shoot down a request made by Heuermann’s defense to obtain potential statements made with immunity by former Suffolk County Police Chief James Burke, who they intend to introduce as an alternative suspect at trial. While prosecutors do not deny that such an agreement exists following his 2023 misdemeanor arrest for indecent exposure, they argue the case has no relevance to the prosecution of Heuermann…

The judge previously said he intends to rule on the remaining issues when Heuermann returns to court March 17.

Rex Heuermann, 62, of Massapequa Park, is set to stand trial in September for seven killings he is alleged to have committed between 1993 and 2010. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges.

I somewhat hope Burke is allowed in as a defense witness.

Obviously, I don't want Rex to prevail, assuming, as it appears, that the evidence against him is overwhelming.

But I want Suffolk County to see and feel the consequences of letting corruption taint LE. The law can't be enforced by lawbreakers.

It was bringing in Feds, State and super leadership in Rodney Harrison that allowed this breakthrough in the face of SC corruption. SC need to get to a place where they don't need such extraordinary resources to solve crimes like this. (Including willingness to accept help from State and Federal agencies in a routine way.) They are a large, well-funded force.

MOO
