Long Island Andy: Secret Account For Rex Heuermann
Thursday night I joined Josh Zeman to go through what I think is one of the more interesting rabbit holes surrounding Rex Heuermann.
An old online account using the name LongIslandAndy has left behind a pretty strange digital trail. Some of what we found lines up in ways that are difficult for me to ignore. There are numerous overlaps with Gilgo, The Killing Season, Amber Costello, Amber’s sister Kim Overstreet and Other pieces leave legitimate questions.
To be clear, we have NOT confirmed that LongIslandAndy was Rex Heuermann. That distinction matters. But we have actionable items in okay to move the needle towards confirmation
But if this account can eventually be connected to Rex, the implications are pretty incredible. It would potentially give us a window into what he was reading, where he was online, and possibly how closely he was following discussion surrounding Gilgo before his arrest.
There is another layer that I find fascinating.
Josh made The Killing Season, probably the most well-known documentary examining the Long Island Serial Killer case before Rex’s arrest. If LongIslandAndy really was Rex, then while Josh was publicly hunting for answers about the unidentified killer, Rex may have been somewhere in that same online world watching people search for him.
We go through what we found, what actually matches, what doesn’t, and where I think we need to be careful.
I’m curious what Reddit finds as well. Watch it skeptically. Try to poke holes in it.
