Wife of Accused Gilgo Beach Killer 'DIVORCE'

As police continue to gather evidence to prove that New York architect Rex Heuermann is the Long Island Serial Killer, his wife has filed for divorce.

Heuermann’s wife, 59-year-old Asa Ellerup, is being represented by attorney Robert Macedonio. The papers were filed in Suffolk County Supreme Court.

Heuermann, 59, was arrested last week and charged with three of the four so-called Gilgo 4 murders — four women who were found dead on Gilgo Beach in December 2010, all wrapped in burlap sacks.

Investigators have said that Ellerup was out of the country or out of the state when the victims were killed.
