YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Accused Long Island serial killer Rex Heuermann has now been officially tied to the brutal slayings of all of the women known as the “Gilgo Beach Four,” prosecutors said Tuesday.

Heuermann, 60, was named in a new indictment unsealed in Suffolk County court charging him with murder in the death of Maureen Brainard-Barnes, the last of the four former escorts whose remains were found along the Sound Shore in 2010 and whose killings remained unsolved for 13 years.

Investigators linked Brainard-Banes’ murder to Heuermann via DNA from a female hair found on her body after samples were collected from the suspect’s wife, Asa Ellerup, and their 26-year-old daughter, Victoria.

Both women were out of town when all four of the murders took place, including in Atlantic City when Brainard-Barnes was killed, the indictment notes.
