Inside the Mind of Asa Ellerup: FBI Profiler Breaks Down the Gilgo Beach Killer’s Home Life

Inside the Mind of Asa Ellerup: FBI Profiler Breaks Down
the Gilgo Beach Killer’s Home Life
In this special full-length edition of Hidden Killers, Tony
Brueski is joined by Robin Dreeke—retired FBI Special Agent and
former chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis
Program—for a masterclass in psychological profiling, emotional
survival, and the terrifying ease with which evil can thrive
inside a family home.

Together, they dissect the marriage between Asa Ellerup and
accused Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex Heuermann. Through footage
from Peacock’s documentary, The Gilgo Beach Killer: Secrets of a
Serial Killer, Robin examines Asa’s emotional patterns, her lack
of curiosity, and what her devotion may reveal about how Rex was
able to live a double life for decades without raising
alarm.

From their earliest days together—when Rex “saved” Asa from a
difficult divorce—to the secret gun vault in the basement she
never questioned, every detail is unpacked through the lens of
behavioral science. Why did Asa never ask what her husband did
during those long weekends alone? Why did she trust him so
completely, even when DNA evidence tied her family to the
victims?

We also explore the conflicted voice of Victoria Heuermann, their
daughter, who is caught between love and revulsion. Like Kerri
Rawson, daughter of BTK, Victoria must now reconcile the man who
built her a dollhouse with the man now accused of horrific
crimes.

Robin Dreeke breaks down how manipulation, grooming, denial, and
emotional projection form the perfect storm for long-term
concealment—and how that storm unraveled in one Long Island
household.

This isn’t just about a killer. It’s about the people who lived
with him. And what they may have known—or refused to see.
