LISK: A Pizza Crust and a Deleted File Ended Heuermann's Fight

from True Crime Today | Daily True Crime News & Interviews · host Real Story Media

Investigators surveilling Rex Heuermann recovered a pizza crust the accused Gilgo Beach Killer threw in the trash. It gave them a DNA match to hairs found on and near multiple LISK victims. On his basement hard drive, prosecutors say they found a deleted Word document — allegedly a blueprint for selecting victims, carrying out killings, and avoiding detection.Eric Faddis — defense attorney and former felony prosecutor — joins me to dismantle both pieces of evidence with the clarity of someone who's handled cases from both chairs. Faddis explains what the Frye hearing that admitted whole genome sequencing actually looked like from inside the courtroom, why the Long Island Serial Killer defense challenged the DNA but not the planning document, and how forensic investigators recovered deleted files from over 350 electronic devices seized from Heuermann's home.We trace the chain from garbage to the most significant DNA match in Gilgo Beach Killer history. We examine how a prosecutor uses alleged "Mindhunter" references in a planning document to establish premeditation. And Faddis gives a direct answer on which single piece of evidence he believes is the reason Rex Heuermann is reportedly pleading guilty.This is the evidence breakdown the LISK case demands. Faddis brings the trial-level analysis most coverage has been missing.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
