Rex Heuermann pleaded not guilty to three charges of first-degree murder, and another three of second-degree murder.
Video has emerged showing Rex Heuermann, the 59-year-old architect arrested on Thursday on suspicion of being the so-called «Long Island serial killer,» describing his favorite tool as a cabinet maker’s hammer.
Heuermann made the comment in an interview with YouTuber Antoine Amira which was published in February 2022, for his Bonjour Realty channel which describes itself as «a celebration of New York City and its people.»
On Friday, Heuermann pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder, and another three of second-degree murder, over the deaths of Amber Costello, 27, Melissa Barthelemy, 24, and Megan Waterman, 22. The women’s bodies were among 11 sets of human remains found in 2010 and 2011 on Gilgo Beach, an isolated location located to the east of New York City, which authorities suspect are connected to Heuermann.
Costello, Waterman, Barthelemy and 25-year-old Maureen Brainard-Barnes make up the «Gilgo Four» murder victims.
