Catching the Long Island Serial Killer

Can a series of accounts and testimonies truly capture the essence of a criminal's character? This intriguing question forms the core of a recent "Hidden Killers" podcast episode, where hosts Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke, a retired FBI Special Agent, delve into the chilling accounts surrounding Rex Heuermann. Known for his involvement in the Gilgo Beach murders, Heuermann's character is further scrutinized through new testimonies, shedding light on his alleged depravities and the system's response to such individuals.
Brueski introduces two new accounts, one from a woman named Taylor, a nightclub bottle girl who narrowly escaped an assault from Heuermann in 2010. Dreeke, with his expertise in behavioral analysis, is unsurprised by these revelations, describing Heuermann's actions as "pure depravity." He notes that Heuermann's distinctive appearance made him memorable, worsening his situation as more victims come forward.
The conversation then shifts to the systemic response to such criminals. Brueski highlights the efforts of Attorney Ray, who is bringing new information to light, often more than the official investigation. They discuss the importance of addressing the victims' families' needs and the challenges in the justice system in dealing with such complex cases.
Another account mentioned by Brueski involves Mary Poe, a sex worker who alleged an encounter with Heuermann in 1994, resulting in her being shot. This account, backed by medical records, adds to the growing list of allegations against Heuermann. Dreeke emphasizes the need for thorough investigation, questioning why Heuermann's estranged wife, who is now making a documentary, has not been more scrutinized.
The episode takes an interesting turn when discussing Heuermann's mental state in jail. Despite the heinous nature of his crimes, he receives counseling for depression, prompting a debate on the ethics and necessity of providing mental health support to accused criminals. Dreeke sees this as a testament to the quality of the American jail system, while Brueski expresses frustration that such resources are allocated to someone accused of such grave crimes.
In conclusion, the episode of "Hidden Killers" brings to light the complex dynamics of criminal behavior, victim impact, and the justice system's role in addressing these issues. It paints a picture of a system striving to balance justice and humanity, even in the face of profound depravity.

What secrets can lie in the shadows of a relationship, especially when one partner is a suspected serial killer? This question is the focus of a "Hidden Killers" podcast episode, where host Tony Brueski and guest Bob Motta, a defense attorney and host of "Defense Diaries," discuss the chilling case of Rex Heuermann. Attorney John Ray, representing some of the LISK victims, brings forward detailed affidavits describing Heuermann's alleged violent actions dating back to the 1990s.
Accounts from survivors like Taylor, a club bottle girl, and Mary Poe, a sex worker who survived a gunshot from Heuermann, paint a haunting picture of the suspect. Motta compares Heuermann to infamous serial killer John Wayne Gacy, noting their similar predatory behavior and the number of people who narrowly escaped their clutches. "He gives me like the biggest Gacy vibe," Motta observes, emphasizing the grave nature of Heuermann's case.
Brueski and Motta delve into why many of Heuermann's alleged victims, mainly sex workers, might not have reported their encounters to law enforcement. Motta suggests that fear of prosecution and societal stigma could have silenced these individuals, allowing Heuermann to continue his alleged crimes undetected.
The conversation shifts to Asa Heuermann, Rex's spouse, with Brueski and Motta speculating on her possible knowledge of his activities. They discuss the complexities of spousal privilege in legal proceedings and whether Asa could be compelled to testify against her husband. Motta raises the point, "did the wife know?" highlighting a common curiosity in cases involving married suspects.
The episode ends with Motta and Brueski pondering the potential outcomes of the documentary Asa Heuermann is filming. They question whether it could inadvertently reveal incriminating evidence against her or her husband, drawing a parallel to Robert Durst's infamous confession.

Is it possible that the most horrifying tales of human depravity are those hidden in plain sight, involving victims society often overlooks? This question emerges from the latest episode of the "Hidden Killers" podcast, where hosts Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott delve into the harrowing case of Rex Heuermann, the alleged Long Island serial killer.
Heuermann's saga is a chilling narrative of violence and predation, primarily targeting sex workers. Brueski recounts, "More and more evidence continues to mount against Rex Heuermann... Sex worker somehow gets involved, seeing him, meeting him. Either survives or dies." The tales of narrow escapes are harrowing. One such account involves a nightclub bottle girl, who in 2010, had to deploy a taser to escape Heuermann's clutches.
Scott emphasizes the grim pattern in Heuermann's alleged crimes, noting the victims' reluctance to approach law enforcement due to their vulnerable status. "These women, they have no reason, I would say, to be coming out and sharing these stories now... But clearly want to get their story heard," Scott observes. This hesitance to report crimes, rooted in stigma and fear, creates a shroud of silence around such atrocities.
A striking aspect of the discussion is the contrast between the support Heuermann receives in prison, including counseling for his depression, and the scarcity of resources for his victims and others in similar situations. Scott critically views the prison's approach to Heuermann, describing it as "minimal" and "very superficial." The conversation then pivots to the complexities surrounding confidentiality and crime within the prison system, raising questions about the boundaries of doctor-patient confidentiality in cases involving serious crimes.

In the grim tableau of America's most notorious crimes, the Long Island serial killer case stands as a chilling enigma, weaving a complex narrative of murder, mystery, and unanswered questions. With Rex Heuermann now facing charges for a fourth murder, the case against him grows, yet so does the labyrinth of speculation surrounding his wife, Asa Ellerup, and the validity of her alibis. Tony Brueski, host of "Hidden Killers," alongside retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer, delves into these unfolding revelations, challenging the silence and seeking truth amid the shadows.
Heuermann, accused of being the malevolent force behind the Gilgo Beach murders, has seen his circle of suspicion inexorably widen. Yet, amidst the accusations and evidence, Asa Ellerup stands, a figure shrouded in controversy and conjecture. Her repeated claim of being "out of town" during the crimes her husband is accused of casts a pall of doubt and raises more questions than it answers.
John Ray, an attorney for some of the victims, has been pivotal in casting this doubt, suggesting that Ellerup's timeline may not align as neatly as presented. Coffindaffer weighs in on Ray's persistence, understanding his drive to peel back the layers of this case, revealing the depth of its complexity and the potential complicity or ignorance of those closest to Heuermann.
The conversation between Brueski and Coffindaffer illuminates the meticulous investigative work that has led to Heuermann's charges, yet it also highlights the glaring absence of scrutiny towards Ellerup. Despite her maintaining distance and seeking evidence in court, the lack of a thorough interrogation by authorities remains a conspicuous gap in the investigative process. This absence of scrutiny fuels speculation and demands a closer look into the dynamics of the Heuermann household during the years these heinous acts were committed.
The duo discusses the implications of DNA evidence, particularly the strands of hair belonging to Ellerup and her daughter found on the victims, and the complexities it adds to the case. While not directly implicating her in the murders, this evidence thrusts her into an uncomfortable spotlight, challenging the narrative of ignorance she has maintained.
As Brueski and Coffindaffer navigate the murky waters of this case, they confront the broader implications of Ellerup's alibis and the potential knowledge she might have harbored about her husband's activities. The discussion pivots to the broader societal and psychological implications of living alongside evil, questioning how much one can truly know about their partner's darkest secrets.
Ellerup's situation, encapsulated by her continued legal marriage to Heuermann and her ambiguous stance on the evidence against him, epitomizes the complex web of human relationships entangled in criminal investigations. Her insistence on out-of-town alibis, backed by some evidence yet questioned by victim advocates like Ray, underscores a narrative fraught with tension and uncertainty.
As the "Hidden Killers" episode unfolds, it becomes clear that the Long Island serial killer case is far from closed, with each development unearthing more questions than answers. The pursuit of justice for the victims and their families remains paramount, yet the path to such justice is cluttered with obstacles, not least of which is the enigmatic figure of Asa Ellerup.
In closing, the discussion between Brueski and Coffindaffer leaves listeners pondering a critical question: In the shadow of monstrous deeds, how deep does the circle of knowledge—or complicity—extend? And as the investigation continues to unravel, will the true extent of this horror ever come to light, or will some secrets remain buried, obscured by the sands of Gilgo Beach?
As the Long Island serial killer case continues to evolve, the quest for answers persists, a testament to the enduring need for closure and the relentless pursuit of truth in the face of darkness.

In the ever-evolving saga of the Long Island serial killer, new developments continue to cast a long shadow over the truth, challenging perceptions and demanding a deeper investigation into those closest to the accused, Rex Heuermann. The latest chapter unfolds as Tony Brueski, host of the "Hidden Killers" podcast, delves into the complex narrative surrounding Heuermann's wife, Asa Ellerup, and the persistent scrutiny from attorney John Ray, a vocal advocate for the victims' families.
As Heuermann faces charges linking him to the heinous acts on Gilgo Beach, attention turns once again to Ellerup, whose alibis and actions—or lack thereof—have become a focal point in the court of public opinion and investigative interest. The couple's history, intertwined with the timeline of the murders, paints a picture of enigma and potential complicity that begs further examination.
John Ray's persistence in highlighting discrepancies in Ellerup's whereabouts during the crimes has brought to light questions that demand answers. His "gumshoe" efforts have unearthed details that suggest the narrative presented by Ellerup and her legal representation may not be as cut-and-dry as it appears. With each new piece of evidence or contradiction revealed, the need for a thorough investigation into Ellerup's role, knowledge, or absence becomes increasingly apparent.
Joining Brueski in this latest discussion is Shavaun Scott, a psychotherapist and author, whose insights into the psychological underpinnings of the case add depth to the conversation. Scott underscores the importance of scrutinizing Ellerup's claims and the mental health aspects that could play a role in her behavior and responses to the allegations against her husband.
The discourse around the credibility of Ellerup's alibis—bolstered by bank statements and hotel records—raises significant questions about the standard of evidence and investigation in such a high-profile case. The reliance on financial transactions as proof of innocence in the face of a series of brutal murders seems insufficient and simplistic, prompting a call for more comprehensive investigative measures.
Amid the swirling allegations and investigations, the dynamic within the Ellerup household, especially in light of a documentary crew's presence, becomes a point of speculation. Scott posits that Ellerup's behavior, marked by a lack of empathy for the victims and aggressive reactions to law enforcement's actions, may hint at underlying mental health issues. This perspective sheds light on the complexity of her character and the potential impact of such factors on the case.
The public's fascination with the case, coupled with the media's attention, has placed Ellerup in a unique position. Yet, her seemingly indifferent stance toward the gravity of the situation and the absence of a proactive approach to clear her name or express solidarity with the victims' families adds layers of suspicion and intrigue.
As Brueski and Scott peel back the layers of this intricate case, the conversation underscores the necessity of a deeper dive into Ellerup's involvement, knowledge, or indifference regarding her husband's alleged crimes. The call for a more detailed examination of her alibis, mental health, and overall behavior is a testament to the complexity of human psychology and the intricacies of criminal investigations.
In closing, the discussion leaves listeners with a lingering question: In the shadow of unspeakable horror, what truths remain hidden within the walls of the Ellerup household, and how will the unfolding investigation bring these secrets to light? As the Long Island serial killer case continues to unfold, the search for clarity, justice, and understanding presses on, challenging investigators, commentators, and the public to look beyond the surface and confront the unsettling depths of human nature and criminality.

In the dark and twisted saga of the Long Island serial killer, a new chapter unfolds, raising more questions than answers. Rex Heuermann, already linked to three gruesome murders on Gilgo Beach, now faces charges for the murder of Maureen Brainard-Barnes, a 25-year-old whose life was tragically cut short. The case, which has haunted the community and baffled investigators for years, seems to grow more complex with each passing day.
Tony Brueski, host of the podcast "Hidden Killers," delved into these latest developments with Robin Dreeke, a retired FBI Special Agent. Their conversation shed light on the intricate investigation that led to Heuermann's latest charge. Dreeke expressed his astonishment at the meticulous work of the investigative team, highlighting the immense effort and detailed analysis that went into linking Heuermann to the victims through DNA evidence.
The case against Heuermann is strengthened by mitochondrial DNA evidence and recent nuclear DNA testing, which Dreeke discussed with cautious optimism. "The immense, intense amount of fantastic investigative work... is pretty incredible," Dreeke remarked, underscoring the significance of having two separate labs independently verify the DNA evidence linking Heuermann to the victims.
However, the case is not just about the pursuit of justice for the murdered; it also casts a shadow of doubt over Rex Heuermann's family members, particularly his wife, Asa Ellerup. Her repeated alibi of being 'out of town' during the times of her husband's alleged crimes has become a focal point of scrutiny. Attorney John Ray, representing some of the victims' families, has been vocal about questioning the validity of Ellerup's alibi, further complicating the narrative surrounding the case.
Brueski and Dreeke pondered the implications of such alibis and the potential knowledge Ellerup might have had regarding her husband's deviant behaviors. The conversation ventured into the psychological complexities of living with a person capable of such heinous acts, considering how Ellerup's repeated absence during the murders could either be a mere coincidence or a more sinister aspect of their marital dynamic.
Despite the mounting evidence against Heuermann and the swirling suspicions around his family, many questions remain unanswered. Why hasn't Asa Ellerup been more rigorously questioned? What did she truly know about her husband's actions? And most importantly, how deep does the rabbit hole go in this horrifying case?
As this investigation continues to unfold, the community and the families of the victims hold onto hope for answers and justice. Yet, the case of the Long Island serial killer serves as a grim reminder of the complexities and challenges inherent in solving such deeply disturbing crimes. The conversation between Brueski and Dreeke not only highlights the progress made but also underscores the painstaking journey still ahead in uncovering the full extent of this nightmare.
In a world where the truth is often stranger and more terrifying than fiction, the Long Island serial killer case continues to intrigue and horrify in equal measure. As investigators peel back the layers of this macabre mystery, one cannot help but wonder: What other secrets lie buried on Gilgo Beach, waiting to be unearthed?

In a bid to strengthen the defense for Rex Heuermann, the accused serial killer linked to the Gilgo Beach murders, his legal team plans to meticulously analyze nearly 3,000 tips received by law enforcement since 2010 concerning the 11 bodies discovered along Long Island's Gilgo Beach over a 13-year period.
Michael Brown, representing Heuermann, emphasized the importance of ensuring a thorough investigation into all leads during the prolonged period when the case remained unresolved. "We want to see those leads and we want to see the credibility of those leads," Brown stated, underlining the potential impact on their defense strategy.
Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney, however, remained unwavering in his confidence in the prosecution's case. "We've been doing this a while," Tierney remarked, indicating familiarity with potential defense maneuvers.
Heuermann, 60, appeared briefly at the Suffolk County Courthouse in Riverhead, clad in a black suit, white shirt, and blue tie, where his attorney updated the judge on the case's progress. This marked Heuermann's first appearance before Justice Timothy Mazzei since pleading not guilty to the indictment charging him with the murder of Maureen Brainard-Barnes, one of the victims, in 2007.
During the court session, prosecutor Nicholas Santamarino disclosed the turnover of extensive evidence to the defense, including 2,944 tips dating back to 2010, alongside lab reports and electronic device data amounting to three terabytes. Brown, who had been pursuing these records for months, emphasized their importance for the defense.
"We haven't received any of that documentation. We expect that it will be forthcoming. But that's very important, extremely important for this case," Brown asserted, indicating particular interest in information related to another individual the prior district attorney considered charging with the crimes.
In addition to the tips and evidence turnover, the defense also discussed Heuermann's disturbing online search history, exposed in recent court papers. These searches included terms such as "Tied up fat girl porn," "Skinny white teen crying porn," "medieval torture of women," and "skinny black slave girl." Heuermann allegedly made these searches under the Gmail account "sandbagger303," created in 2017 under the false name "Andrew Robert."
Moreover, Heuermann's lawyer, Michael Brown, last month defended his client's alleged "sadistic" search history, arguing that most people engage in questionable web sleuthing. "One thing leads to another – you see a show about something, you start searching, and they talk about how somebody got killed," Brown said. "You start searching, and then they talk about another way, and you start searching. Think about if they looked at your own personal search history, how all of a sudden you're guilty because of your search history?"
Heuermann's next court appearance is scheduled for April 17 as both sides prepare for what promises to be a complex and high-profile trial.
