Investigators say ‘painstaking’ search of Rex Heuermann’s home, storage facility and car also seeks blood and DNA evidence
Investigators in Long Island, New York, said they were looking for “trace evidence, blood, DNA” and “trophies” that could further tie the suspect, Rex Heuermann, to the murders of three women and possibly other victims in the Gilgo Beach area.
“Normally people keep mementoes of significant times in their life, so that’s what we’re looking for,” the Suffolk county district attorney, Ray Tierney, told Newsday, describing as “painstaking” the search of Heuermann’s home in Massapequa Park, storage lockers and vehicle.
