Accused Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex Heuermann, a 59-year-old architect charged with murdering three women and suspected in the death of a fourth
The investigation into the discovery of human remains near Gilgo Beach in 2010 has haunted investigators for years. The grim findings revealed the existence of potentially 16 victims, several of whom were identified as sex workers. While authorities do not believe all of the deaths are connected to a single individual, court documents indicate that Heuermann is implicated in four killings where the victims were discovered in similar positions, bound with belts or tape. Additionally, three of the women were wrapped in a material resembling burlap.
