Heuermann Faces New DNA Evidence in Murders
News summary

One year after Rex Heuermann's arrest for the Gilgo Beach murders, the community of Massapequa Park continues to deal with the fallout. Heuermann, charged with six murders and suspected in additional cases, was captured thanks to DNA evidence from a discarded pizza box. Advances in DNA technology, including new methods for analyzing hair, are strengthening the prosecution's case. His family, labeled as 'collateral damage,' is facing ongoing public scrutiny and involvement in a documentary. The legal process is ongoing, with a Frye hearing scheduled to determine the admissibility of the new DNA techniques in court. Investigators are also examining potential connections to other cold cases across multiple states.
