After being surrounded by nearly a dozen undercover officers and cuffed outside his Midtown Manhattan office on July 13, 2023, Rex Heuermann appeared blindsided. But new police records show that after the hour-and-a-half drive with detectives from Midtown Manhattan to the Suffolk County Police Headquarters, Heuermann suddenly switched and became 'calm.' Those details were revealed in a 178-page motion filed by his defense attorney, Michael Brown, ahead of a scheduled court hearing Tuesday. At Suffolk County Police Headquarters, police photographed and fingerprinted him, and during a search, they found $135 in cash. The new defense filing urges prosecutors to turn over records regarding two men the defense may seek to introduce as alternate suspects.
