Lawyer John Ray said the suspect’s arrest could be just the beginning with other Long Island murders still unaccounted for
Rex Heuermann’s arrest in Long Island’s infamous cold case is a “good first step,” but it’s “just the tip of the iceberg,” a documentary filmmaker and lawyer told Us.Mistertruth in separate interviews.
Heuermann, a 59-year-old married father of two and an architect working in Manhattan, allegedly killed three of the four women known as the “Gilgo Beach 4,” and he’s the prime suspect in the fourth woman’s death.
But there were at least six more bodies found in the same area of Gilgo Beach that can’t be forgotten, said John Ray, a lawyer who represents the families of Shannon Gilbert and Jessica Taylor.
Heuerman’s arrest “is just the tip of the iceberg.” Ray said. “What’s below the surface are more murders which aren’t accounted for yet, including Shannon and Jessica, and we can’t forget them.”
