Young Woman Reveals She Was Almost Gilgo Beach Murder Victim

Dominique Michelle Vidal is sharing that she dodged a bullet after getting creepy, unsolicited text messages from the Gilgo Beach murderer.

The young woman shared the insane story of her run-in with suspected murderer Rex Heuermann and played the creepy voicemail that he left for her, way after they were no longer in contact.

Vidal appeared creeped out but insisted that she and her boyfriend were “not surprised” to hear that their former networking acquaintance was being suspected of the murder. She met the architect when they were part of a networking group together.

She “got to know him” through these events and said, “I could tell you right now that me and my boyfriend are not surprised that he is a serial killer.” She pointed out some quirks about the suspected murderer of three women maybe more.

“Just everything about him, his mannerisms, how full of himself he was, how odd he was, he was always very sweaty and not very nice to talk to and creepy,” she said. “We're not surprised, we are shocked.”

Vidal also played the voicemail that Heuermann left her a significant time after the two had been in contact and were no longer part of the networking group. She found the call weird and the long-winded voicemail even more suspect.

“I found it odd he was calling me, he had no work for me, I had no work for him, there was no ongoing relationship, we were just two people who happened to be in the same networking group,” she says with a dumbfounded look on her face.

“There's nothing incredibly scary about the voicemail, besides the fact he is the Gilgo Beach murderer,” she admits.

In the voicemail, he says he is reaching out because he “wanted to touch base.” As the message continues, he says, “If you get an opportunity you can always find me at the office or feel free to use my cell. Hope you're doing good, hope to talk to you soon.”

Vidal also shared that she had conversations with Heuermann at bars and other establishments after the group's official networking meetings were over and he was kind of cocky. He talked about himself a lot and when he finally asked her about her hobbies, she said she is a fan of true crime podcasts.

“I'm not making this up, at all. I'm so shocked I need to share this with somebody, all of TikTok. He asks me do I know about the Gilgo Beach Murders and of course, I do,” Vidal admits. "He goes on to tell me, ‘That's a serial killer that was never caught in my hometown, my neighborhood where I live.’ Tells me the guy killed 10 people and might still be out there.”

Keep in mind, Heuermann is only on the hook for possibly murdering three women so far. Vidal joked to break up the awkward air, “You never know who you're talking to,” she continued. “could be a serial killer,” and Heuermann laughed.

The now-disgraced Architect is being accused of being a serial killer who has alluded police since the mid-2000s. Three women have been connected to the Gilgo Beach serial killer for sure Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman, and Amber Costello.

Heuermann as the main suspect has been linked to those three women and one more Maureen Brainard-Barnes, changing his name association to the “Gilgo Four”. So far, Heuermann’s defense lawyer has responded with:

“I will say to you folks that it’s extremely circumstantial in nature. In terms of speaking to my client, the only thing I can tell you that he did say, as he was in tears, was ‘I didn't do this.’”
