"She is going through a very difficult time." Asa Ellerup and her children continue to live in the house in Massapequa Park, Long Island, that the family says was excessively damaged when police searched it shortly after Rex Heuermann's arrest.Įllerup's children have also paid a heavy price. "Asa would like me to express her thanks for the support she has received," Macedonio said in a news conference announcing the GoFundMe page. He says that because Heuermann was the sole provider for the family, she will soon lose her health insurance. It is money Ellerup's attorney says will largely go to medical bills, since she is battling breast and skin cancer. Moore set up a GoFundMe page for Ellerup, which has raised over $50,000. "Today I have an opportunity to use my voice to help Asa," Moore said in a TikTok video she posted. Kerri Rawson, the daughter of serial killer Dennis Rader, who named himself BTK, tweeted: "Asa and her kids are also victims." Another person who has spoken out is Melissa Moore, the daughter of Keith Jesperson, a serial killer known as the "Happy Face Killer" who taunted authorities with letters signed with a happy face. "For him to ask her to bring back gifts for his employees, and then he's also … betraying her."Įllerup has also found support from those who perhaps know all too well what she might be going through. "Because the wife's a victim as well," said Henriquez. Henriquez has held onto the sweater and says it is a reminder of two women she believes are victims. Henriquez wonders if Ellerup's trip out of the country might have given Heuermann the opportunity to kill Maureen Brainard-Barnes, who disappeared that same summer. Henriquez spoke to "48 Hours" exclusively and says that Heuermann gave her a sweater in 2007 that Ellerup had picked up while she was on a trip to her native Iceland. While Ellerup has received public scrutiny, she has also found sympathy -including from Muriel Henriquez, a former co-worker of Rex Heuermann's at the architectural firm he owned called RH Consulting & Associates. Co-worker of Gilgo Beach murders suspect says he unnerved her by tracking her down on vacation 01:06
