New Evidence Leads to Additional Murder Charges for Gilgo Beach Suspect Rex Heuermann

In a shocking development, accused Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex Heuermann is expected to be indicted on additional murder charges on Thursday. He is suspected of being involved in the deaths of two more victims, whose identities have not been released yet.

The latest revelation comes after investigators conducted a second search of Heuermann's home in Massapequa Park and removed wood-paneled walls from the basement. The reason for this action is unclear at this time.

Heuermann, who has pleaded not guilty to the initial charges, is already facing murder charges in connection with the deaths of four women whose remains were found along Ocean Parkway in Suffolk County. These victims include Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman, Amber Costello, and Maureen Brainard-Barnes.

The investigation into Heuermann's involvement in these crimes began last summer when human remains were discovered near Gilgo Beach. Since then, at least 11 sets of human remains have been found in the area, leading investigators to believe that there may be more victims.

Detectives have been conducting searches at various locations where Heuermann owned property, including Manorville and Las Vegas. During these searches, they discovered over 280 firearms at his Massapequa home, more than 40 of which were possessed illegally.

The latest developments in the case have left many wondering what other secrets may be uncovered as the investigation continues. Stay tuned for updates.
