{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"Gilgo Beach Killer Rex Heuermann Confessed — So Why Keep Visiting?","description":"Rex Heuermann told his wife he killed eight women. Seven of those conversations reportedly happened in their own basement — the same basement where, according to prosecutors, he described the dismemberments in detail. Asa Ellerup filed for divorce, kept the house, tore out the floors, hung a cross on the wall, arranged stuffed animals on the shelves, and moved in. She sleeps there now. She has reportedly visited Rex in jail around twelve times since the confession. She told Peacock cameras she wants to understand his triggers.\n\nThe audience wants to understand hers.\n\nWhy does someone keep returning to a man who confessed to serial murder? Why does the family allegedly collect seven figures from a documentary deal while a victim's son — who was six years old when his mother was killed — files a lawsuit claiming they knew? Why does daughter Victoria say she believes her father most likely did it, while Asa maintains an active relationship with him?\n\nRobin Dreeke, retired FBI Special Agent and former chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, takes every question head-on. He breaks down what loyalty after confession actually looks like in behavioral terms, where the boundary between trauma response and complicity starts to blur, and what the DNA evidence recovered from all seven victims tells him about how close someone had to be. Nothing speculative. Every answer grounded in the documented record, driven by the listeners who've been living in this case.\n\nJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/\nWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
