Rex Heuermann's DNA Exposed: Megan Waterman and the Gilgo Evidence

The pizza crust changed everything. Investigators had Heuermann under surveillance for months before they collected the abandoned DNA sample that cracked the case. He discarded a pizza crust near his Manhattan office. The DNA on it matched a male hair found in the burlap wrapping around Megan Waterman's remains. That match gave prosecutors warrants for his house in Massapequa Park, where they seized more than 350 electronic devices, the planning document, and evidence connecting Heuermann to multiple victims.

Episode 6 of "The Seven." Megan was 22, from Maine, a devoted mother who called her three-year-old daughter every single day. When the calls stopped on June 6, 2010, her family knew immediately. The Holiday Inn Express surveillance footage — the last known image of Megan alive — shows her walking out at 1:15 a.m. She was found six months later in burlap on Ocean Parkway.

Prosecutors allege Heuermann's family was out of state during every murder he's charged with. His search history allegedly included images of the victims and their families — their sisters, their children. The DNA breakthrough, Megan's story, and every piece of evidence that flowed from a discarded pizza crust — all covered here.
