New evidence links Gilgo Beach suspect's family to murder victim as charges rise to seven

Rex Heuermann, the suspected Gilgo Beach serial killer, faces a new murder charge after his daughter's hair was found on the remains of Valerie Mack. This brings the total number of murder charges against him to seven. Mack's remains were discovered in 2000, but she was only identified in 2020. The latest indictment details gruesome findings, including that Mack was decapitated and dismembered. Forensic experts suggest that Heuermann's family, particularly his wife, should be investigated further due to the DNA evidence linking them to the victims. Heuermann has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
