Lawyers for Andrew Dykes, the man accused of murdering and dismembering Tanya Jackson, a woman once known as Gilgo Beach victim No. 3, have asked a Nassau County judge to drop the murder charge against their client, saying detectives violated Florida privacy laws during their investigation.
Dykes, a former Tennessee state trooper who dated Jackson in the late 1990s, and fathered a child with Jackson, Tatiana Marie Dykes, who was also found murdered on Long Island, was arrested in the Tampa area on Dec. 4 after a Nassau County grand jury indicted him on one count of second-degree murder.
He pleaded not guilty and has not been charged in the child’s death.
