And for most of that time, no one was held accountable. I'm Tony Brueski, and this podcast is my deep dive into one of the most chilling serial murder cases in modern American history — the Gilgo Beach murders and the case against Rex Heuermann, the New York architect now charged with the killing of seven women spanning from 1993 to 2010. This isn't a case summary. It's the full picture — the women who were allegedly targeted and discarded, the investigative failures that let a suspected killer allegedly operate in plain sight for decades, and the forensic breakthroughs that finally led to an arrest in July 2023. I break down the evidence prosecutors have built — DNA analysis, cellphone data, digital files allegedly recovered from Heuermann's own computer — and the defense strategy aimed at dismantling it.

She has told documentary producers she now believes her father most likely committed the Gilgo Beach murders. She got to that conclusion after years of publicly standing beside her mother, walking into the house, going down into the basement, and trying to square the father she admired with the man prosecutors described.Her mother Asa has not arrived at the same place. After a jailhouse visit where Heuermann confessed to eight killings — seven in the family basement — Asa's attorney said he does not know if she will ever believe the man she knew was capable of this. The split between mother and daughter is the psychological center of this case now.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to discuss what it does to a person when every family vacation, every holiday, every memory gets reprocessed through the knowledge that while you were gone, he was killing. And why Victoria's willingness to say it out loud may be the most important thing anyone in that family has done.
