The suspect has pleaded not guilty.<\/p>\n<p>But their bodies were not the only ones found on Gilgo Beach at that time. The remains of 11 people were found in the Gilgo Beach area, but not all have been connected to the current suspect.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re looking to match up previously recovered body parts but that didn\u2019t match any of the identified victims,\u201d a source familiar with the search <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2024\/05\/21\/us-news\/chilling-new-details-in-case-of-accused-gilgo-beach-serial-killer-rex-heuermann\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told<\/a> the New York Post.<\/p>\n<p>The suspect\u2019s wife, who is also not being named by The Daily Wire, reportedly told a neighbor that police \u201ctore the place apart the first time, that there was no stone unturned.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know what they could possibly be looking for or they could find this time,\u201d the neighbor added. \u201cYou got to move on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A source also told the Post that the latest search is an attempt to expand the evidence against the suspect, saying the \u201cproblem with the case they have is it\u2019s largely circumstantial.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe physical evidence, meaning the mitochondrial DNA, is not 100%. You still need to be able to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that [the suspect] was with these victims at a time, a certain location, and you have to put him at the scene wherever that scene may be and doing the act,\u201d the source added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is what they are searching for, new evidence for the theory that one or more may have been murdered in his home while his family was away,\u201d the source continued. \u201cBut right now, that\u2019s the piece that is missing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The suspect <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/heres-how-a-pizza-box-and-hair-led-police-to-the-suspected-gilgo-beach-serial-killer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">was arrested<\/a> on July 13, 2023. Six days after his arrest, his wife filed for divorce. She and other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/rep-kinzinger-disowned-by-family-for-anti-trump-actions\/\" title=\"Rep.

The project will follow the family\u2019s lives as they cope with the upcoming trial and how it has uprooted their lives.<\/p>\n<p>Police investigating the Gilgo Beach serial killings are operating on the theory that the suspect committed the murders in his own home, a source told CNN.<\/p>\n<p>The theory is based on the fact that the suspect\u2019s family was out of town during the murders, suggesting he may have lured the victims to his home, a source involved in the investigation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2023\/07\/20\/us\/gilgo-beach-serial-killings-rex-heuermann-house\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told<\/a> the outlet.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities are operating under this theory, the source said, as they continue to search the suspect\u2019s home for trace evidence of the victims. Killing them at his own home would have allowed him to control the environment while having easy access to the materials found along with the victims at Gilgo Beach, such as tape and burlap bags.<\/p>\n<p>Four bodies were found within days of each other. The body of Barthelemy was found on December 11, 2010, during a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-lord-of-the-rings-the-war-of-the-rohirrim-producer-claims-atlanta-police-are-practicing-murder-following-the-announcement-of-a-training-session\/\" title=\"\u201cThe Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim\u201d Producer Claims Atlanta Police Are Practicing Murder Following the Announcement of a Training Session\">police training exercise<\/a> with a K9, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.documentcloud.org\/documents\/23876053-heuermann-bail-application\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a bail application<\/a> obtained by the Daily Beast.
