Summary
As police continue their investigation of Rex Heuermann's home, reportedly a soundproof room has been found in the 59-year-old suspect’s Massapequa Park basement.
A neighbor told the New York Post that cops told him. There is speculation that one of the victims could have been killed in the soundproof room. However police now say there is no soundproof room.
Little information has been revealed about the inside of the home, but we know a few of the items that have been removed: a doll in a glass case, and what's being described as torture porn.
Investigators are excavating the suspect yard as well as using ground-penetrating radar and cadaver dogs.

| 0:14.0 | As we speak, an entire excavation crew is dismantling the backyard deck and porch of |
| 0:23.3 | the Long Island serial killer Suspect Rex Hewerman. This as evidence comes to light that he |
| 0:30.9 | had a sound proof room in his basement. And not only that, Reams of Torture porn allegedly |
| 0:42.3 | being pulled out of his home could it have fueled the flame amp-tem up prior to a string of |
| 0:51.8 | horrible murders on young ladies throughout the metro area. I'm Nancy Grace. This is |
| 0:58.1 | Crime Stories. Thank you for being with us here at Fox Nation and Sirius XM 111. If the |
| 1:04.4 | allegations are true Rex Hewerman is a serial killer like none other. You know you're |
| 1:12.9 | bad when you have other serial killers talking about you. That's actually happening. Dennis |
| 1:20.2 | Raider BTK by Torture Kill is actually commenting on Rex Hewerman. Okay. Before I get my |
| 1:29.4 | mind around that, let's talk about what's happening evidence wise. First of all, I want |
| 1:35.9 | you to take a listen to our friends at Crime Online. As the search of Rex Hewerman's home |

| 1:54.5 | Hewerman took time off from his job as an architect in Manhattan to install a concrete |
| 1:59.9 | line vault at its family home in Long Island. The New York Post says it isn't clear if this |
| 2:04.8 | is the same room that housed over 200 of Hewerman's guns as it's been reported in the past |
| 2:09.8 | or if this was a new space. The former co-worker told The New York Post it's not just a hidden |
| 2:15.3 | room, it's a serious vault. It had a huge heavy duty safe door. The co-worker claimed |
| 2:20.1 | that Hewerman poured new concrete walls massive amounts of concrete to encase the room. |
| 2:26.1 | So I'm trying to understand, is there not only a padlocked room to store guns in addition |
