Authorities say Rex Heuermann’s wife of 27 years likely had no idea he was living a “double life” as an alleged serial killer on Long Island.
Authorities believe Heuermann, a 59-year-old architect, was leading a double life and that Asa Ellerup, also 59, likely did not know that her husband was behind the serial killings of women whose remains were found along a stretch of beach of Long Island’s South Shore more than a decade ago.in the deaths of three of the 11 victims in a long-unsolved string of killings: Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman and Amber Costello.
According to authorities, fragments of hair found on or near three of the victims were later confirmed through DNA testing to belong to Ellerup. Prosecutors believe the hair was unintentionally carried by Heuermann on his clothes and transferred to the victims during the alleged murders. Heuermann was assigned to Brown, a Suffolk County criminal defense attorney, at the arraignment. Brown said he later met with Heuermann at the county jail.
Brass told the paper that Heuermann wanted to meet her in a hotel room near Massapequa Park, but that she felt uncomfortable and asked him to meet her at a seafood restaurant in Port Jefferson instead.
