Accused Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex Heuermann is seeking to exclude DNA evidence and request separate trials for the murders of three women and four women, as per a motion filed by his defense team. The legal team representing Heuermann argues that DNA results from hair discovered at six crime scenes should not be admitted as evidence in the trial. Prosecutors argue that the whole genome sequencing technique utilized in this case is endorsed in peer-reviewed scientific journals and by federal regulators. Heuermann's attorney, Michael Brown, contends that his client faces the risk of wrongful conviction due to the cumulative impact of the evidence presented by the prosecution.
