Rex Heuermann and Megan Waterman: The Gilgo Beach DNA Breakthrough

from Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary · host True Crime Today

Megan Waterman was 22 years old, from Maine, a mother to a three-year-old daughter she called every single day without exception. When those calls stopped in June 2010, her family didn't wait. They reported her missing within two days. The last image of Megan alive is surveillance footage from a Holiday Inn Express on Long Island — walking out the door at 1:15 in the morning to meet a client.Episode 6 of "The Seven." This is the episode built around the pizza-crust DNA — the investigative breakthrough that cracked the entire case. Investigators followed Heuermann, recovered a discarded pizza crust, matched the DNA to a male hair found in the burlap wrapped around Megan's remains. That single match gave them warrants for his house, his devices, and the evidence that built the prosecution's case across all the charges.Prosecutors allege every murder occurred when Heuermann's wife and children were out of state. His search history allegedly included images of the victims and their families. Megan's daughter is a teenager now, growing up in Maine surrounded by family that has spent more than a decade fighting for answers. Megan's story, the DNA evidence, and the full prosecution case — 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?
