Police Dig at Gilgo Murder Suspect's Backyard

Authorities are continuing to gather evidence in the so called Gilgo Beach murder case. Now, the investigation has turned to the Long Island home of the accused man, Rex Heman. On the weekend excavation work began in his yard. Here's the latest good morning and thank you. It is expected to be another busy day here at the Massapequa Park home of 59 year old Rex Heman who we know has been charged with three of the Gilgo Beach murders and that comes after a very busy weekend for investigators. They really are not slowing down at all those 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. shifts and on one of the ones this weekend Chapter 12 caught some incredibly footage of where their investigation is. Now, let's take a look at it. You're going to see the backyard largely in focus a back hoe there that had dug up a piece of the land there. You're going to see surrounding it or you can see, excuse me, several investigators and these are the ones we have seen going to and from the home over the last 10 days, what they were looking for, what they might have uncovered. Well, we don't know just yet. And that is because investigators as well as the District Attorney's office have been incredibly quiet when it comes to any evidence that they have found. But again, we saw these investigators out there in the afternoon on Sunday, we're expecting they will resume their searches of the backyard today. And something else that they actually brought in on Sunday was a K nine unit that happened on Sunday morning. We know that they are working to possibly find any evidence though, that could strengthen their case against this businessman, father and husband as well as potentially tie him to any other Gilgo Beach murders, as well as murders that may have been committed that he could eventually be tied to in other state agencies in New Jersey, South Carolina as well as Las Vegas. They have been looking into their unsolved cases. These are areas where he has connections to see if they could, if he could have been excused me involved in any of them. So of course, we're going to stay on the scene throughout the rest of the day as we have been since we were first to bring this news to you again just about 10 days ago. But for now for news 12 in Massapequa Park, I'm Caroline Flynn. I'll send it back to you in the studio.
