Melissa Barthelemy: How Heuermann Allegedly Taunted a Teen After Gilgo Kill

The calls came from Madison Square Garden. From Times Square. From packed Midtown locations where surveillance cameras are useless. A man, using Melissa Barthelemy's phone, calling her 15-year-old sister Amanda. Five calls over five weeks. Each under three minutes — as if the caller knew exactly how long law enforcement needs to trace a signal. Vulgar. Mocking. Controlled. In the final call, he told Amanda her sister was dead and he was going to watch her rot.Episode 5 of "The Seven." Melissa was 24, from Buffalo, a cosmetology school graduate who moved to the Bronx to chase a salon career. She'd started escort work through Craigslist because the city was expensive and the dream job was slow to arrive. On July 12, 2009, she told a friend she was meeting a man. Prosecutors allege the burner phone that man used traveled from Massapequa Park to Midtown Manhattan — Rex Heuermann's exact commute route. Melissa's own phone then traveled the reverse.Her remains were the first found in December 2010, discovered by a cadaver dog during a training exercise along Ocean Parkway. Prosecutors also allege Heuermann searched online for images of the victims' families after their deaths. The phone evidence, the DNA, and what the calls to Amanda reveal about the alleged psychology behind these killings — all covered here.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
