Show Notes
With the arrest of Rex Heuermann, attention has been focused on why law enforcement officials didn't make an arrest earlier. Suffolk County Police were in possession of information for nearly a decade that would help identify Heuermann, but a number of officials within the department refused to facilitate the use of the leads, both internally and by the FBI. Author Gus Garcia-Roberts, author of "Jimmy The King", a book about former Suffolk County Police Chief James Burke, speaks with host, Chris Mass, about how members of SCPD and the District Attorney's Office ultimately hindered the investigation.
