"Judge Orders DNA Sample from Suspected Gilgo Beach Killer Rex Heuermann"
A judge has ruled that Rex Heuermann, the suspected serial killer in the Gilgo Beach murders case, must provide a DNA sample. The ruling comes after prosecutors requested a buccal swab, or cheek swab, to compare with evidence obtained, including a hair found on a victim and DNA found on a pizza crust and napkin. Heuermann, who has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder, is also the prime suspect in the disappearance and death of a fourth woman. DNA evidence is expected to play a crucial role in the case, with investigators already having obtained DNA samples from Heuermann's wife.
