Chilling Google Street View images uncovered by internet sleuths have revealed alleged Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex Heuermann chatting with an unidentified woman in June 2022.  

A haunting shot on East 36th Street in Manhattan, , near Heuermann’s Midtown office, was taken just months before police arrested the Massapequa Park architect. 

Officials believe he is the man responsible for the bodies of three young sex workers who were brutally murdered and buried in burlap sacks on Long Island.

The 6ft 6 suspect is seen wearing the same type of light blue shirt he wore in a YouTube interview last year and in other surveillance images released by police in the wake of his arrest last week. 

He also appears to be carrying the same over-the-shoulder brown bag he toted when he was finally arrested on Thursday night after six months of being staked out by cops. 

Online sleuths have been scouring the internet for any trace of the now-infamous father-of-two for days. The Google Image shows Heuermann standing next to a young woman with her arms folded outside a smoke shop.

It was captured by the internet company’s mapping services, which take 360-degree photos from specially modified vehicles to map locations around the planet. 

Heuermann has been charged with three counts of first-degree murder and three counts of second-degree murder in connection to the deaths of Megan Waterman, Melissa Barthelemy and Amber Costello, whose bodies were found in close proximity to one another in 2010. 

Heuermann appeared before a judge on Friday afternoon and pleaded not guilty.

Investigators on Friday shuffled in and out of a building at 36th Street and Fifth Avenue, where sources say Heuermann worked, and just outside the building and it has emerged that a pizza box he left in the garbage was key to the case. 

Detectives say he threw away the pizza box, then investigators ordered a DNA swab of the leftover crust. Police say they confirmed just this week that the DNA matched a hair found on a burlap-type material that was used to tie up one of the victims, Megan Waterman.

Heuermann grew up on Long Island and attended Berner High School. He worked in Midtown as an architect who ran a company called RH Consultants and Associates.
