Investigators uncovered a massive walk-in vault — but no soundproof room — during their ongoing search of suspected Gilgo Beach killer Rex Heuermann’s Long Island property, police said Monday.
Suffolk County Police Commissioner Rodney Harrison called the 12-day search of Heuermann’s Massapequa Park property “fruitful,” saying he hoped cops will be able to wind down their work either Tuesday or later in the week.
“There have been some things that we’ve had to take into custody … That makes it fruitful,” he told reporters.
Harrison said earlier reports of a soundproof room being found in the basement were “misconstrued.”
“There’s not a soundproof room. There is a vault where he secured numerous amounts of guns,” Harrison said, referring to Heuermann.
“Somehow I believe the soundproof room and the vault — the message got misconstrued.”
He said the vault was secured with a “big iron door.”
