Sterns took the stand himself in a rare legal move, claiming police violated his rights when they accessed his phone without a warrant. The evidence includes hundreds of sexually explicit photos allegedly stored in his Google account and device, but his defense argues he only consented to a limited search. Prosecutors say a factory reset and verbal consent justify the seizure — and they plan to use any guilty verdict in the sex abuse case as an aggravator in the murder trial to seek the death penalty. #BestGuests: 1. Ryan Vescio – Former homicide prosecutor and criminal defense attorney in Orlando 2. Sonny Slaughter – Victims’ rights advocate 3.

Gilgo Beach Serial Killer Rex Heuermann is linked to the death and disappearance of many victims and now police are holding a LIVE presser to share new information about more victims. Rex Heuermann, a Manhattan architect, is the alleged Long Island Serial Killer who could be facing several murder charges once he goes to trial. The Gilgo Beach serial killings refer to a series of murders that occurred on Long Island, New York, primarily along Ocean Parkway, between 1993 and 2011. The investigation was prompted by the search of Shannan Gilbert who went missing in 2010, and later led to the discovery of the remains of seven women, including the "Gilgo Four" who we now know as Megan Waterman, Melissa Barthelemy, Amber Costello, and Maureen Brainard-Barnes. Police later identified victims Jessica Taylor, Sandra Costilla, and Valerie Mack.All Things STS: Https://linktr.ee/stspodcast Get Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSupport the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorCatch us live on YouTube: Surviving The Survivor: #BestGuests in True Crime - YouTubeVenmo Donations: @STSPodcast Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
