Speaking to reporters outside the Riverhead court complex after Heuermann was sentenced, Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney said the families of the eight slain women can avenge their loved ones by living happy and productive lives.
The district attorney said he wanted the victims' loved ones to "wreak their revenge by going on and having great lives, by being happy, by being fulfilled, by being satisfied that they stood by their loved ones and did a wonderful job.
“My greatest wish for this case, is that the victims continue their journey, continue to heal and go on and live the lives that they all deserve," Tierney said
