The search for evidence in connection with Gilgo Beach murder suspect Rex Heuermann has expanded to South Carolina.
There are shocking details about what officers are finding inside Gilgo Beach murder suspect Rex Heuermann's Long Island home, including a secret locked vault. Derick Waller has more.Beyond Long Island, the search for forensic and physical evidence in connection with Gilgo Beach murder suspect Rex Heuermann has expanded to property he owns South Carolina.
The multi-agency investigation led prosecutors to charge Heuermann with murder last Friday in the deaths of three of the 11 women whose remains were found buried along a remote beach highway in 2010 and 2011. Suffolk County Police Commissioner Rodney Harrison, who spearheaded the creation of an interagency task force last year to solve the Gilgo Beach killings, has vowed that authorities will "work tirelessly until we bring justice to all the families involved."
The married father of two is behind bars, charged with first-degree murder in the deaths of Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman and Amber Costello, according to an indictment unsealed in Suffolk County Criminal Court. He is also considered the prime suspect in the death of Maureen Brainard-Barnes."They were shocked, they were disgusted, they were embarrassed...so if you ask me, I don't believe that they knew about this double life that Mr. Heuermann was living," he said.
Allie Pertel, the sister of one of the victims, Megan Waterman, spoke out after the arrest of Heuermann.
