Summary

Breaking: Police execute new search warrant on Rex Heuermann's house. New York State Police returned Monday to the Massapequa Park home of the suspect in the Gilgo Beach serial killings to execute a search warrant, according to the attorney for Rex Heuermann's ex-wife. Heuermann, an architect, was arrested in July 2023 in connection to a string of murders and bodies found along Gilgo Beach on Long Island. He has been charged in the deaths of four women, including a Connecticut mother of two who vanished in 2007 and whose remains were found more than three years later along a coastal highway in New York. "As District Attorney Tierney has previously stated, the work of the Gilgo Beach Homicide Task force is continuing," a spokesperson for the Suffolk County District Attorney's office said in a statement Monday. "We do not comment on investigative steps while ongoing." Crime lab technicians could be seen in the front yard of the home on First Ave setting up a tent. A heavily police presence was spotted in the area by Chopper 4 and the street in front of the home was closed off. It was not immediately clear how long the search would last.

I'm live. Sorry, folks. I had some technical difficulties. So this seven o'clock this morning today, Monday, May 20th, the Suffolk County Police, New York State Police, the FBI, they went to Rex Newman's home to serve a search warrant on his home. Now, what were they looking for that they didn't find the last

0:24.2

time? Well, they could be looking for more additional forensic evidence, potentially to compare

0:31.9

against other evidence that they have. Did they come up with other evidence because they just

0:37.3

spent 10 days out in

0:38.7

Manaville, Long Island, searching through those woods there, where they had information that

0:44.5

potentially other victims of Rex Uriman were dumped? So that is the question that we all have.

0:52.6

What are they searching for now?

0:54.8

And could and would this search be fruitful?

0:58.8

Because let's not forget, the home is lived in by Asa Elrop and two of Rex Schumann's

1:05.2

children, that Asa Elrop, of course, is Rex Schumann's wife, who filed for divorce from him.

1:13.4

So do investigators,

1:20.8

the crime scene investigators really think at this point that they can find evidence that it'll be a fruitful search. And don't forget that to get evidence that is usable, they first had to convince a judge that they had probable

1:31.8

cause. They had a reason to request this search warrant. So that is what they're doing right now,

1:38.5

is they're searching this house. And the FBI, of course, and I put that thumbnail up on the screen, the FBI is there.

1:47.0

And this is the, you know, the Suffolk County Gilgo Beach Homicide Task Force, who we all know

1:55.3

did an outstanding job at this. So a mobile command center and crime scene investigation trucks lined the street

2:02.5

while white tents were erected in the front and backyards with large white boxes hauled inside

2:07.5

for inspection. Despite a trove of circumstantial evidence investigators yet to pin down where

humans allegedly victims were killed before their bodies were dumped on

2:18.6

desolate local beaches prompting the search, the second search of the home. This is according to law
