The 6'6" ogre is being indicted for a 5th murder in the Gilgo Beach case. #JessicaTaylor #SandraCostilla #ValerieMack Live press conference at 11:00 AM. Long Island, New York, investigators have linked a fifth alleged victim to Rex Heuermann, the suspected Gilgo Beach serial killer who was accused last year of murdering four women and dumping their bodies along a remote highway more than a decade ago, sources tell Fox News Digital. The Suffolk County District Attorney's Office declined to comment but acknowledged that Heuermann is due back in court Thursday morning for a previously unscheduled hearing. Unnamed sources told Newsday, the local newspaper, that the suspected serial killer has already been indicted on unspecified charges in connection with new developments in the case. A task force including police K-9s from Suffolk County, the NYPD and New York State uncovered evidence in Manorville in April, a month before investigators returned to Heuermann’s house in May for a second search warrant. In July 2023, they arrested Heuermann outside his Manhattan architecture firm and spent nearly two weeks scouring through his home in Massapequa Park, about 20 minutes from where police found the bodies of Melissa Barthelemy, 24; Megan Waterman, 22; and Amber Costello, 27, in 2010. Prosecutors later tacked on charges for the murder of Maureen Brainard-Barnes, 25, whose remains they found near the others. Collectively, those women are known as the Gilgo Four because they were found close together and under similar circumstances. (Fox News)
