27: How Many 'Dates' Did Rex Heuermann Go On?

27: How Many 'Dates' Did Rex Heuermann Go On?

We are talking with former federal prosecutor and attorney Eric Faddis about Rex Heuermann today, where we've obviously learned a lot about him in the last two weeks, including his alleged affinity for sex workers. Uh, we're hearing more and more stories from surviving sex workers who I'm guessing look back going, wow, that could have been me. But a lot of people have had encounters allegedly with Heuermann. Do you think we're gonna continue to see that sort of trend continue? And I also wonder if there were a lot of red flags that these individuals had, but they simply couldn't speak out about because number one, the industry that they're in, not being exactly legal.

Uh, and, uh, then number two, people just not taking someone seriously, uh, simply because of, of what they are involved in. Yeah. You know, um,

uh, as you said, we, we've learned a lot about this and at least according to the allegations that things are still developing. Mm-hmm. It appears that this is Rex Heuermann’s modus hop operandi.

Yeah. He sort of targets the most vulnerable folks that he can, in this case, alleged sex workers. In large part because there is sort of a, a culture of silence, a around that scene. Like you said, it, it's, it's illegal in most states. And, and, um, you know, these folks don't often go to the police and say, Hey, I was about to engage in sex work when an individual got violent with me.

Mm-hmm. You know, uh, historically these folks are subject to violence and, and degradation and, and homicide, uh, and as well as sexual assault and everything else. And so, um, you know, it seems, uh, fitting that he allegedly selected these people as his victims because he thought it would be less likely that he would be caught.

I mean, when you really look at it, and it's something that I, I think a lot of us don't look at very closely. This is an area that really is a playground for abusers and in horrible people taking advantage of these women. It's not always just. Somebody that's paying someone for sex and then they go on their way.

And that's the end of the day. Uh, it, it really seems to be an outlet for this type of character. It really makes me wonder, uh, if there were more things in place or more protections in place, or even, I don't even know if I wanna say it being legal or not, but in theory, if it were, uh, would this sort of individual be allowed to flourish as long as he did?

You know,a good question because, um, like I said, a lot of these folks don't want to come forward and report when they see something problematic in, in a John mm-hmm. Who's trying to, to pick them up because they, they themselves, the sex worker doesn't wanna get caught. You know, perhaps if there were more resources in place, more safe harbor laws, maybe, uh, something that would, uh, insulate.

These sex workers from criminal consequences if they came forward with helpful tips to the police to try and stop these predators. I just wonder if, if having something like that in place could potentially limit or prevent th this sort of horrible repeat tragedy that that's being alleged against Rex Homan, the Long Island serial killer.

What can be done, like speaking from your own expertise? Is there any sort of protections? Let, let's say, A sex worker came up to you and said, look, this was really weird, this encounter that I had. I think someone should know about it. Or I wanna press charges because I was abused or violated in some way, shape or form.

Can that be done? Is that ever done? And, and how would a court look at that considering the nature of, of the relationship between the abuser and the person doing the abuse? You know, I wonder if it's almost, um, the sex worker industry analogous to kind of the drug scene. Like, like here in Colorado for example, um, you know, people when they're using drugs, they often don't want to call the cops.

Sure. And something is going wrong because they don't wanna get in trouble. Uh, but here we have a law. That essentially says if someone is overdosing through the use of drugs, even if you're there doing it with them, yeah. You can call police to try and help them and you're not gonna get charged with a crime.

Mm-hmm. I'm just wondering if having some kind of protection in place for the sex worker industry under similar circumstances when they believe that a crime has happened or is likely to happen. Mm-hmm. Uh, I wonder if having that in place would, would, uh, Encourage more of these folks to speak out more of these red flags, to become apparent to law enforcement and investigations to begin sooner before these tragedies keep recurring.

Accused Gilgo Killer Rex Heuermann CLEARED in One Long Island Murder-WEEK IN REVIEW

Accused Gilgo Killer Rex Heuermann CLEARED in One Long Island Murder-WEEK IN REVIEW

In a stunning twist in the Gilgo Beach serial killer saga, accused murderer Rex Heuermann has officially been cleared in the 1994 strangulation death of Colleen McNamee, a Long Island sex worker long believed to be one of his potential victims. For years, McNamee’s name was quietly linked to the growing list of women found murdered across Suffolk County — a list that defined Heuermann as the face of one of the most disturbing serial murder cases in American history. But a new DNA analysis just ended that speculation for good. The Suffolk County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed that Heuermann’s genetic profile did not match the “Unknown Male A” found on McNamee’s remains. Instead, the DNA points back toward convicted killer John Bittrolff, a carpenter already serving 50 years to life for two nearly identical murders. Ironically, it was Bittrolff himself who pushed for the test — hoping it would shift blame to Heuermann. It did the opposite. This development doesn’t exonerate Heuermann from the seven brutal killings he’s charged with — victims Amber Lynn Costello, Megan Waterman, Melissa Barthelemy, Maureen Brainard-Barnes, Sandra Costilla, Jessica Taylor, and Valerie Mack. Their DNA trails, cell records, and forensic links remain strong. But it does sharpen the boundaries of truth: what’s proven, what’s not, and how modern forensic science continues to rewrite the Gilgo Beach narrative. In this episode, Tony Brueski breaks down the case that looked like it belonged to Rex Heuermann — and why it never did. From forensic breakthroughs to the psychology of blame, we explore how one killer tried to hide behind another, and how DNA once again cut through the myth to reveal the facts. #RexHeuermann #GilgoBeach #TrueCrime #ColleenMcNamee #DNAEvidence #JohnBittrolff #LongIslandMurders #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #TrueCrimeToday Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Why the Rex Heuermann Trial Is STILL Delayed: Inside the Legal War Behind Gilgo Beach-WEEK IN REVIEW

Why the Rex Heuermann Trial Is STILL Delayed: Inside the Legal War Behind Gilgo Beach-WEEK IN REVIEW

The Gilgo Beach murders shocked the nation. The arrest of Rex Heuermann — the quiet Long Island architect accused of being a serial killer — was supposed to bring answers. Instead, it’s brought more questions. Two years later, there’s still no trial date. Why? Because behind the headlines, the justice system is waging a silent war. In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we dig into the real reasons justice has stalled. Prosecutors are relying on cutting-edge DNA pulled from rootless hairs — a first for New York courts. Defense attorneys call it “junk science.” The judge allowed it, but that ruling unleashed months of follow-up litigation: new motions, new hearings, new expert reports. Every microscopic detail is being challenged to make sure the case can survive appeal. Then there’s the consolidation — seven murders, one trial. That decision means every chain of custody, every test, every autopsy from 1993 to 2010 has to hold up together. Add old phone records, outdated forensics, and a DA’s office desperate to restore its credibility, and you get one of the most complicated homicide prosecutions in modern history. This isn’t justice delayed. It’s justice under construction — a slow, grinding fight between science, law, and time itself. Tony Brueski breaks down the psychology, the strategy, and the human toll of a case that refuses to move fast. Why is the state taking its time? What’s happening behind the scenes? And what happens if the science fails? Watch now to understand why the waiting matters. #RexHeuermann #GilgoBeach #HiddenKillers #TrueCrime #DNAEvidence #JusticeDelayed #TonyBrueski #CrimePodcast #SerialKillerCase #ForensicScience Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Inside the Mind of Rex Heuermann: The Gilgo Beach Killer Psychology-WEEK IN REVIEW

Inside the Mind of Rex Heuermann: The Gilgo Beach Killer Psychology-WEEK IN REVIEW

He looked like the guy next door — an architect, a husband, a father.  But prosecutors say Rex Heuermann was also the man behind the Gilgo Beach murders, one of the most disturbing serial-killer cases in recent memory. In this psychological deep dive, Hidden Killers host Tony Brueski takes you inside the mind of control, exploring how a man can design blueprints by day and allegedly engineer horror by night. Through the lens of behavioral science, Tony examines compartmentalization, high-functioning psychopathy, and sadistic dominance — the traits that allow someone to live a double life so convincingly it fools everyone around them. From the soundproof basement to the meticulous planning, Heuermann’s world wasn’t chaos — it was choreography. This episode unpacks how his architecture mirrored his pathology and why the façade of normalcy is often the perfect camouflage for the worst kind of predator. Because monsters don’t always hide in the dark. Sometimes they wave from the driveway. #RexHeuermann #GilgoBeach #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #TrueCrimePodcast #SerialKillerPsychology #CriminalMind #FBIProfile #LongIslandMurders #BehavioralAnalysis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
