Authorities search alleged Gilgo Beach serial killer's home in Massapequa Park
MASSAPEQUA PARK, N.Y. (PIX11) -- Authorities descended on the Long Island home of Rex Heuermann, the man accused of killing four women over a decade ago and dumping their bodies near Gilgo Beach.
AIR11 was overhead Monday morning as authorities milled about outside the home, which is located across the bay from where the bodies were found. A Suffolk County Crime Lab vehicle was parked outside the home, video from AIR11 showed.
It was not immediately clear which law enforcement agency was leading the investigation or whether Heuermann's relatives were home at the time.
Heuermann is charged with murder in the deaths of Maureen Brainard-Barnes, Melissa Barthelemy, Amber Costello, and Megan Waterman. He pleaded not guilty to the charges and has maintained his innocence since his arrest in July 2023.
