Long Island Serial Killer | The Trial Of Rex Heuermann Rex Heuermann’s Manifesto, Asa Ellerup’s Doubt & Suffolk County’s Corruption Problem | 2025 Year in Review

As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we’re revisiting the most disturbing, politically charged, and psychologically revealing chapter in the Gilgo Beach murder investigation — one that now includes the alleged discovery of Rex Heuermann’s “manifesto.”
In this explosive special, Tony Brueski unpacks two powerful narratives unfolding in parallel: the discovery of a chilling document allegedly authored by Heuermann detailing methods for serial murder, and the growing skepticism of his ex-wife Asa Ellerup, who’s beginning to wonder if her former husband might be a pawn in a much darker story of corruption and cover-ups.
Investigators reportedly found a meticulously written digital file on Heuermann’s computer — a step-by-step “how-to” guide for abducting, killing, dismembering, and disposing of victims while avoiding forensic detection. The alleged instructions include forensic countermeasures that mirror the real-world evidence found across multiple crime scenes, including Manorville and Ocean Parkway, where the remains of victims like Jessica Taylor and Valerie Mack were discovered.
Prosecutors say this “manifesto” could become the smoking gun in proving premeditation, linking Heuermann to multiple unsolved murders, and showing a disturbing consciousness of guilt. But with a county marred by scandal — from former police chief James Burke’s porn-and-violence scandal to DA Thomas Spota’s obstruction conviction — the defense is asking: how much of this can be trusted?
Enter Asa Ellerup. After watching Netflix’s Gone Girls: The Long Island Serial Killer, she isn’t pushing wild conspiracies — but she is questioning the system. Her legal team is raising alarms about Suffolk County’s history of corruption, claiming it taints everything from the DNA evidence (derived through a contested “whole genome sequencing” technique) to the investigative integrity itself.
Could a broken system be capable of building a monster to hide its own sins? Or is this simply the final unraveling of one of America’s most terrifying suburban nightmares?
