More than 30 years after a killing spree
began terrorizing Long Island, a serial
killer stood up in court and admitted
guilt. Rex Huerman repeatedly said
guilty with what appeared to be a slight
smirk on his face there in a dark suit,
hands handcuffed behind his back, admitting that he strangled to death
eight young women that he had solicited
for sex. And the families of the victims
were there packing the courtroom along with investigators who've been working
the case all these years. Even the woman
who was married to Huerman for 27 years there in court in the back row gripping
the seat in front of her and later offering her condolences to victims. Why
did he change his plea now? The district attorney here in Suffach County told me
he thinks Huerman just got tired of
fighting. And there he was in court
saying the word guilty over and over.
He's never going to leave prison. He is
going to be serving three consecutive
life sentences. And as part of this plea agreement, he also must sit for an
interview with the FBI to give investigators a window into the mind of
a monstrous serial killer.
