Yep, quick synopsis, Andrew.
Between 2010-2011, police on Long Island discovered 11 sets of human remains along a desolate stretch of Gilgo Beach and in other parts of Long Island.
For years, the case just lingered and lingered and went cold eventually.
That changed in 2010.
2023, when Heurman was arrested, he was initially charged with three murders.
But since then, the case has expanded significantly, as you know, and prosecutors now say he's responsible for killing seven women, with some of those murders dating as far back as 1993.
And Rex, as you know, has pleaded not guilty to all the charges.
That's what they call a teasing podcast line, Andrea.
We'll get to that in just a sec.
That is the big question.
You're right.
But Herman appeared in court Tuesday in a dark suit.
I think that's his usual suit.
His face was stern, expressionless.
His defense team filed an omnibus motion.
Omnibus basically means one big thing with many parts.
So it was a 175-page motion with all their attachments.
They're seeking what's known as relief on a wide range of issues, Andrew, including getting all of the search warrants tossed out.
And then as a result of that, they want all of the evidence that was gathered from those search warrants to be tossed out as well, including another attempt to get some of the DNA evidence thrown out.
They're saying Rex's civil rights were violated.
