Gilgo Beach killer sentenced to life terms as families call him a demon
TL;DR
Rex Heuermann, a Manhattan architect linked to the Gilgo Beach murders, was sentenced to consecutive life terms without parole after pleading guilty to seven murders and admitting the death of an eighth; during a wrenching hearing, victims’ relatives described him as a predator and a demon, marking the end of a case reopened in 2023 thanks to DNA evidence including a discarded pizza crust that tied him to the deaths of eight women found along Gilgo Beach from 1993 to 2010.
