Crime Stories with Nancy Grace

Just weeks after a judge said says Rex Heuerman "will go to trial come hell or high water," the accused serial killer pleads guilty to all seven murders for which he's charged, and an additional murder. Now we are learning details of what police found on Heuermann's phones. Yes, multiple phones. Rex Heuermann used a series of burner phones to lure sex workers, contacting them hundreds of times over two years, according to court documents. These "untraceable" phones, along with his personal phone, traced to a "tight cluster" of cell towers near his Massapequa Park home, linking him to the victims and taunting calls made to family members.
Police arrested the prominent New York architect in connection with murders of Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman, and Amber Costello, Sandra Costilla, Valerie Mack, Jessica Taylor, and Maureen Brainard-Barnes. The 8th victim, 34-year-old Karen Vergata, was last heard from on Valentine's Day 1996. Her legs and feet were found the same year on Fire Island. Her skull was found fifteen years later near Tobay Beach in Nassau County.
The women's remains were found along Gilgo Beach in Long Island within 500 feet of each other. The first four victims, dubbed the Gilgo Four, were found wrapped in burlap. Heuermann, originally claimed his innocent.
Asa Ellerup, his estranged wife, filed for divorce six days after his arrest and then signed a deal worth at least 1 million dollars to take part in a documentary series.

David Anthony Burke facing severe state-level charges in the death of Celeste Rivas. He has not been formally charged with federal crimes. If it can be proven that he lured Celeste to his home, wouldn't let her leave then murdered her, that rises to the level of kidnapping, a federal offence. D4vd could already be facing the death penalty for the special circumstances in the case —lying in wait, murder for financial gain, and killing a witness to a crime.
Especially disturbing is a video released by the singer showing him sitting in a chair wrapping what looks like a human finger in a cloth. Celeste Rivas had two fingers cut off. They have not been found. The finger being held by D4vd was actually a plastic anime toy.
