    Bonus Episode: Rex Heuermann's Sentencing Hearing

    We told you we'd be back with an update once sentencing happened. It happened this week, and we have a lot to say about it. Quick recap if you need it: from the 1990s through the 2010s, an ogre of a man used Craigslist to target small, vulnerable women across New York, lured them to his own home, and killed them there. Rex Heuermann has been tied to eight victims. If you haven't heard Part 1 and Part 2 of our Long Island Serial Killer coverage yet, go back and start there first, this episode will hit a lot harder with the full story behind it. This week we break down what happened inside the courtroom during sentencing; the victim impact statements, what Rex said when given the chance to speak, and the judge's response to him. Several family members didn't hold back, and two statements in particular are ones we won't forget anytime soon. Rex Heuermann was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. After more than thirty long years since his rein on terror began, there's finally some accountability. We've linked footage from the hearing and the victim statements on our website if you want to see it for yourself. New episodes every Wednesday at 5AM EST Have a case suggestion?

    Episode 29: The Long Island Serial Killer Part 2: Rex Heuermann's Confession

    He was a husband, a father, and an architect...and for over a decade, he was also the Long Island Serial Killer. In Part 2 of our deep dive into the Gilgo Beach murders, we cover Rex Heuermann's early life, his marriage, his first known victims, and the disturbing system he built to keep getting away with it. This is one of the most significant true crime cases in recent American history, and it just took a massive turn. Rex Heuermann pled guilty in April 2026 to the murders of seven women and admitted to an eighth, bringing a 17-year reign of terror on Long Island to a close. His sentencing is set for June 17, 2026. In this episode we break down: Rex Heuermann's childhood and the warning signs that were missedHis marriage to his wife Asa and the family life that masked everythingHis first known victims and how his methods evolvedThe meticulous system he used to avoid detection for over a decadeHow the timeline finally caught up to him and led to his arrest and confessionIf you haven't listened to Part 1 yet, go back and start there!! This case makes a lot more sense once you have the full picture. Light up some Blueberry Haze and settle in. This one is heavy, but it's a story that deserves to be told all the way through.
