2
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 1: Rex Huerman, the suspect in the Gilgo Beach serial killings,

3
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 1: reportedly utilized burner phones to reach out to numerous sex

4
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: workers over five hundred times leading up to his arrest.

5
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 1: This has detailed in a recent court document. The alleged

6
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: communications occurred over a span of two years, according to

7
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 1: the filing, which represents the prosecution's response to the defense's

8
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:33,919
Speaker 1: attempts to suppress evidence. Additionally, Huerman is accused of performing

9
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 1: thousands of online searches for quote hardcore violent porn, quote,

10
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: images of bruised and impelled women, and over one hundred

11
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: inquiries related to serial killers and the Gilgo investigation itself.

12
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:53,480
Speaker 1: Prosecutors argue that this evidence points to Huerman as being

13
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: a sexual sadist. Prosecutors say this evidence indicates a deliberate

14
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: pattern of behavior or showing that he was actively engaging

15
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 1: in these calls and searching methods of torture and Prosecutors

16
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:11,479
Speaker 1: say this evidence indicates a deliberate pattern of behavior, showing

17
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 1: that he was actively engaging in these calls and researching

18
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: methods of torture to carry out on his victims. The

19
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: prosecution contends that these acts are relevant. It appears they

20
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 1: believe they have a very strong case and are aiming

21
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 1: for nothing less than a life sentence. Hureman faces charges

22
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: in connection with seven murders that date back several decades.

23
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: In January, the defense filed motions to contest much of

24
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: the evidence, asserting that a single hair is the primary

25
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: link between Hureman and the victim, Sandra Costilla. However, prosecutors

26
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: maintain that the case is not solely dependent on that hair,

27
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: but rather on a consistent pattern observed across the victims.

28
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 1: This pattern includes maliciously preserved articles about the murder from

29
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 1: decades ago. Prosecutors claim to have over one hundred and

30
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: fifty potential witnesses prepared to testify if the case advances

31
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 1: to trial. The defense has indicated it is preparing for

32
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: a trial rather than considering any plea deal. A ruling

33
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: on all matters is expected from the judge on March seventeen,

34
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 1: when Hureman will make another court appearance. The judge is

35
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 1: advocating for the trial to start shortly after Labor Day.

36
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 1: For Crime and Justice News, After this, the death of

37
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: a nineteen year old man from Ohio discovered on the

38
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: side of the road Sunday has been classified as a homicide.

39
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 1: Joshua Levoy, the nineteen year old roommate of the deceased

40
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: Jade Nelson, faces charges for tampering with evidence and obstructing

41
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 1: the investigation into Nelson's death. Nelson's body was found early

42
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: Sunday morning, around four am, and authorities initially suspected he

43
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 1: may have been a victim of a hit and run accident.

44
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 1: Lavoy was taken into custody on Tuesday, and by Wednesday,

45
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: the Hamilton County Corner's Office confirmed that Nelson's death was

46
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: indeed a homicide. It remains uncertain whether this new classification

47
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: alters the initial belief that he was involved in a

48
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: hit and run incident. Court filings indicate that Lavoy attempted

49
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: to destroy evidence, including his cell phone, erased social media accounts,

50
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: and provided false information to law enforcement regarding other individuals

51
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 1: potentially linked to the case. In remembrance of Nelson, Rock's

52
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: House of Billiards, a local establishment he frequented, is organizing

53
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: a benefit for his family on Sunday. Jaden loved coming

54
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: here to play pool. All my staff recognized him so

55
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: it felt right to open the doors and do something

56
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: for the family, said the owner, Amanda Johnson. Police say

57
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,280
