Tearful wife of Gilgo Beach suspect Rex Heuermann doesn’t ‘want to walk down the street’ as neighbors gossip

The wife of suspected Gilgo Beach murderer Rex Heuermann became emotional as she revealed that her neighbors want the disorderly Long Island home she once shared with the alleged serial killer to be torn down.

Heuermann’s wife, Asa Ellerup, 59, returned to the family’s dilapidated Massapequa Park ranch home last week — but now says she doesn’t “want to walk down the street” and hear her neighbors gossiping about the gruesome 13-year-old slayings.

“The neighbors want the house gone,” Ellerup told the Daily Mail on Wednesday. “They want it bulldozed.”

Ellerup and her two children, Christopher Sheridan, 33, who has special needs, and Victoria Heuermann, 26, only returned to their home last week following Heuermann’s July 13 arrest.

Asa Ellerup says she doesn’t want to be out in the neighborhood because of the gossip.

Gilgo beach — The family had to leave their home for nearly two weeks while investigators searched for evidence in the case.

“Look, I don’t want to walk down the street. I heard what people said about us. I heard it,” Ellerup said through tears.

“I heard the other people in the neighborhood. They want the house bulldozed. Do you understand? Please, I can’t talk anymore,” she told the outlet.

Her estranged husband was arrested on July 13 and charged with the murders of Megan Waterman, Amber Lynn Costello and Melissa Barthelemy.

Heuerman is also the prime suspect in the death of Maureen Brainard-Barnes — with all four victims known collectively as the “Gilgo Four,” women who worked as escorts on Long Island.

The accused killer’s estranged wife told The Post last week that her ex’s arrest has taken a toll on their two adult children, who now “cry themselves to sleep” after learning of the shocking accusations.

Investigators tearing up the family’s home in search of evidence in the chilling case have left Ellerup plagued with severe anxiety, she says.

Gilgo — The alleged killer’s ex says she is plagued with anxiety following the horrifying allegations.

“I woke up in the middle of the night, shivering,” a still-shocked Ellerup said. “Anxiety.”

“My children cry themselves to sleep. I mean, they’re not children. They’re grown adults but they’re my children, and my son has developmental disabilities and he cried himself to sleep,” she continued.

Suffolk County and state police spent nearly two weeks combing through the family’s home, even digging up the backyard in a search for body parts or “trophies” from the slayings.
