Did Rex Heuermann Alleged Gilgo Beach Murderer Have Accomplice?
Episode 100, Jul 20, 2023, 10:00 AM
In the latest episode of the popular true crime podcast, "Murder In The Morning," hosts Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole delve into the alleged Gilgo Beach murders, and the mounting evidence against the suspect, Rex Heuermann. The hosts discuss the possible involvement of an unidentified female accomplice, a series of unsettling phone calls, and a disturbing internet search history linked to the case.
The suggestion of a potential female accomplice emerged from attorney John Ray, who represents the families of victims Shannan Gilbert and Jessica Taylor. Ray posits that this unidentified woman may have aided Heuermann in luring some of the victims. This theory was fueled in part by a piece of evidence - the body of a 10-month-old baby girl found swaddled in a blanket on Long Island in 2011. Ray argues that such an act seems to display a level of maternal care at odds with the profile of a violent murderer.
The podcast also covered the subject of unsettling phone calls that Ray began to receive earlier this year from both a man and a woman. The calls, which contained references to the Gilgo Beach case, ceased abruptly around the time of Heuermann's arrest. In one chilling instance, a caller commented on Ray's activities, specifically mentioning him enjoying a pizza. Shortly after, a pizza delivery arrived at Ray's house, an order he had not placed. Upon inquiry, Ray found out that the order was placed by a woman, with a man suggesting toppings in the background.
Heuermann, a 59-year-old architect, was arrested last week and has been charged with three of the 11 murders connected to Gilgo Beach. Following his identification as a suspect, more than 300 subpoenas, search warrants, and other legal procedures were issued, indicating the extent of the investigation prior to his arrest.
The hosts revealed Heuermann's internet search history on air, which they describe as one of the most disturbing lists of search terms they have encountered on the show. The content included explicit and violent sexual content, suggesting a predatory mindset.
Further compounding the intrigue, Heuermann's search history also showed a keen interest in the Gilgo Beach investigation. The architect had been searching for updates on the case, querying why the killer hadn't been caught and looking up potential technological advancements that could potentially help crack the case. The hosts theorized that this pointed towards growing paranoia on Heuerman's part.
Brueski and Cole concluded the episode by emphasizing the importance of process and justice in the face of such disturbing revelations. The evidence against Heuermann is damning, yet they cautioned their listeners against jumping to conclusions prematurely. They noted the presence of evil in unexpected places, with Brueski stating that "evil lives among us everywhere," a sobering reminder to their audience.
