Long Island Serial Killer | The Trial Of Rex Heuermann17 Elo 2023

41: Will NEW DNA From Heuermann Lead To More Murders?

In a recent episode of the acclaimed podcast "Hidden Killers," hosted by Tony Brueski, a deep dive was taken into the ongoing investigations surrounding the infamous Rex Heuermann. With insights from retired FBI Special Agent and Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, Robin Dreeke, the episode examined the controversial push to obtain new DNA evidence from the suspect.

Heuermann, speculated to be the 'Long Island Serial Killer,' has been a figure of intense scrutiny for law enforcement. "We're talking about, uh, Rex Heuermann and the new DNA that, uh, is going to be revealed shortly," Brueski began, setting the tone for a riveting discussion. It was recently revealed that the defense had fought against the submission of a cheek swab, claiming that the case was not robust enough to warrant such a procedure.

Drawing parallels from his time in counterintelligence, Dreeke highlighted the complexities surrounding the escalation of intrusive techniques. "You always use the least intrusive technique you can first," he stated, emphasizing the beauty of the Constitution that guards civil liberties and privacy. To escalate investigative measures, "it has to be escalated with bolted techniques," Dreeke added. He discussed the intense scrutiny that goes into escalating to sophisticated DNA tests, indicating that the mere fact that the case had reached this stage meant that lower-level evidence had already been extensively explored.

However, even in the face of mounting evidence, Dreeke was mindful of the role of defense attorneys. "Again, we're going back to a great defense attorney doing his job. Fight everything tooth and nail," he remarked. This resilience from the defense makes it all the more intriguing as to the depth and breadth of evidence the prosecutors hold.

Tony, chiming in, mentioned the rigorous standards prosecutors adhere to, stating, "Prosecutors don't like having any gaps. They don't like anything but a hundred percent on everything." The pursuit of the cheek swab, in this context, is seen as an attempt to close potential gaps and solidify the case against Heuermann.

But what remains alarming is the extent of Heuermann's suspected crimes. Beyond the three murders he's currently linked with, there's speculation of his involvement in several more. The evidence, however, seems somewhat inconsistent. The use of burlap sacks in some murders and the gruesome state of other bodies — dismembered and missing parts — has led many to question whether Heuermann's methods evolved or if multiple culprits are at play.

Brueski posed a haunting question: "Is this a beach that just has a lot of bodies from a lot of different killers? Uh, or did Rex change his ways over time?" Dreeke responded with an insight into the psychology of serial killers, noting that once they find a method that provides gratification, it's rare for them to shift radically. However, the central behaviors he pinpointed were strangulation, positioning of the bodies, and a potential foot fetish indicated by missing shoes from the crime scenes.

Despite the perplexing nature of the evidence and the varied conjectures, both hosts agreed on the consistent pattern of missing items, particularly shoes. However, as Dreeke cautioned, much of this is still conjecture. The investigation is ongoing, and until a clear conclusion is reached, the mysteries surrounding the Long Island Serial Killer continue to captivate the world.

With the new DNA revelations on the horizon, all eyes are on the unfolding case, waiting for the puzzle pieces to fall into place finally.

Rex Heuermann Gilgo Case Origins: First Bodies, Burlap Sacks & Police Cover-Up

Rex Heuermann Gilgo Case Origins: First Bodies, Burlap Sacks & Police Cover-Up The Rex Heuermann case didn’t start in 2023 with a DNA breakthrough—it goes back more than a decade to the chilling discoveries along Gilgo Beach. We rewind the timeline, from the 2010 search for missing Shannon Gilbert to the discovery of the “Gilgo Four,” all petite women who vanished after advertising on Craigslist. Wrapped in burlap, buried along the same stretch of beach, their bodies set off one of the most infamous cold cases in New York history. But it didn’t stop there. As investigators kept digging, more remains turned up—including a toddler, an unidentified Asian male, and dismembered women, some dating back to 1996. Was this one killer or several? The case quickly spiraled into mystery. And then—silence. For over a decade, little progress was made. Why? Because Suffolk County Police Chief James Burke actively blocked the FBI from joining the case. When you’ve got burlap, DNA, and a dozen bodies but nothing moves forward, it begs the question: who’s protecting who? Burke’s later conviction for beating a suspect and his connections to a seedy underworld only deepen suspicions that corruption slowed justice and kept families waiting. Meanwhile, the victims—often sex workers—were denied resources and media attention, buried twice: once by the killer, and again by the system. This segment pulls the threads together: the bodies, the cover-up, the phone taunts to grieving families, and the institutional indifference that kept a predator free for years. It’s the foundation of the case that now sits squarely on Rex Heuermann’s shoulders, with DNA evidence poised to bring it into court.

Donna Adelson’s Collapse, Kohberger’s Meds EXPOSED & Rex Heuermann’s DNA Bombshell

Donna Adelson’s Collapse, Kohberger’s Meds EXPOSED & Rex Heuermann’s DNA Bombshell The true crime headlines this week read like a three-act tragedy. We begin with Donna Adelson, who just spent her first weekend as a convicted murderer. Cameras caught her courtroom “collapse”—but was it really collapse, or the same manipulation tactic she’s used her entire life? Retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins us to unpack why Donna’s outward, audience-scanning “shock” didn’t play, how fear and control ruled her family for decades, and why the jury likely returned so fast. We dive into the psychology of the “look” and the family trauma-bonding that made the Adelsons implode in plain sight. Then we pivot to Bryan Kohberger. Newly released photos from his apartment and office offer strange insight—a birthday card from his mom, a smiley face echoing on his office door, disorganized chaos clashing with his “OCD” diagnosis. But the real reveal? A drug code hidden in paperwork pointing to levothyroxine, a thyroid medication that, if mismanaged, can amplify agitation, obsession, and instability. Pair that with his autism, OCD, ADHD, and ARFID diagnoses, and you get a profile of someone rigid, fixated, and increasingly unmoored. These conditions explain quirks, not murder. The choice to kill was his alone—but the context is chilling. Finally, the Rex Heuermann case turns a corner. After years of silence, DNA is officially in. A discarded pizza crust tied him to hairs on burlap sacks that wrapped the Gilgo Beach victims. The science? Whole-genome sequencing—a new, court-admitted method that can pull profiles from even hair without roots. Defense cried “never used before.” The judge said, “there’s always a first.” Now, the path to trial is clearer, and the odds of Rex walking away grow slimmer by the day. Three cases. Three collapsing facades. Donna, Bryan, Rex. Each revealing that control, denial, and obsession don’t hold forever.

Gilgo Beach Trial Showdown: DNA Bombshell Looms in Rex Heuermann Case

Gilgo Beach Trial Showdown: DNA Bombshell Looms in Rex Heuermann Case The Rex Heuermann case is barreling toward a major inflection point—and July 17 might just decide everything. In this episode, we break down exactly what’s about to go down in court, where the accused Gilgo Beach serial killer faces a pivotal Frye hearing on the admissibility of the prosecution’s DNA evidence. The stakes? Nothing less than the forensic backbone of the entire case. At issue is the use of cutting-edge whole genome sequencing, a method prosecutors say conclusively links hair found on victims to Heuermann and his family. The defense is calling it “magic,” arguing it’s too new and untested for New York courts. If the judge agrees, Heuermann could dodge one of the strongest scientific ties between him and the seven women he’s accused of murdering. But if the evidence is allowed? Heuermann's defense may be toast. We also explore what else could emerge at the hearing: will more victims be linked? Will previously unseen digital evidence surface from the arsenal of hard drives seized from Heuermann’s home? And how will the court rule on whether the case should be split into multiple trials—or proceed as one massive, media-saturated showdown? Beyond the courtroom, the investigation is still active. With four Gilgo-area victims not yet tied to Heuermann, and rumors of out-of-state connections under review, this story is far from over. We break it all down in plain English—with sharp insight, no fluff, and just enough sarcasm to keep the horror digestible. The courtroom may be dry, but this case? Anything but.
