Gilgo Beach serial killings suspect Rex Heuermann has been charged in the death of a seventh woman, according to a superseding indictment.
Rex Heuermann, the suspect in the Gilgo beach killings, was charged with the murder of a seventh victim in a new superseding indictment released on Tuesday in Suffolk County court. Heuermann was charged with second-degree murder in the killing of Valerie Mack, whose partial remains were found in eastern Long Island in November 2000. “Your honor, I am not guilty of any of these charges,” Heuermann said in court Tuesday, shaking his head no. Mack was a 24-year-old Philadelphia mother and worked as an escort at the time of her appearance. Parts of Mack’s remains were first found in a wooded area of Manorville by a group of hunters, who called 911 and reported the findings. In May 2020, prosecutors used a DNA sample from Mack’s remains and worked with local law enforcement, a genetic genealogist from the FBI, and the Suffolk County crime laboratory to determine the remains belonged to Mack, according to the district attorney’s bail application.

Janet Mills and her allies are counting on a gender gap to narrow Platner’s wide lead ahead of the June 9 primary to decide who will face incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins. They are betting that the unfiltered style that has brought Platner widespread attention as someone who could help Democrats reach young men will backfire with women.
