A group of sex workers and their allies from New York City are among the people waiting to enter the Riverhead court complex for Rex Heuermann’s sentencing.
One told Newsday they are here to support the victims and their families and raise awareness of violence against sex workers and women. “It could have happened to any of us," said Manhattan resident Natalie Tildi, a member of the informal group.
