FAMILIES of the Gilgo Beach victims have slammed suspect Rex Heuermann’s wife after reports she could be paid $1million to star in a documentary.

Asa Ellerup, 59, arrived at her estranged husband’s trial at the Suffolk County Superior Court in Long Island, New York with a Peacock documentary crew.

Heuermann, the Long Island Serial Killer suspect, has been charged with murdering at least three women.

These victims include Megan Waterman, 22, Melissa Barthelemy, 24, and Amber Lynn Costello, 27.

Other women who were found dead near Gilgo Beach have potentially been linked to the serial killer, but police have not confirmed this. 

These women include Shannan Gilbert and Jessica Taylor whose bodies were discovered in the early 2000’s.

Taylor’s cousin, Jasmine Robinson, slammed the alleged news surrounding Heuermann’s wife’s pay from Peacock, according to the Long Island Press.

Robinson posted on X, formerly Twitter, and said: “I haven’t stopped shaking all morning.

“I’m so f**king disgusted to see that RH’s family will become rich off of the suffering of victims and their families.”

Jessica Taylor’s body was discovered by a dog walker on July 26, 2003, on a secluded road in Manorville, New York.

Her death was investigated alongside the Gilgo Beach murders in 2011, but Heuermann has not been charged with her murder.

The family of Shannan Gilbert has also taken to X to share their anger at the documentary and the supposed $1million check.

Gilbert’s sister Sherre (@ThatGirlRee_24) blasted Peacock and Ellerup in response to a tweet about a petition titled “Justice for Serial Murder Victims of Gilgo.”

The petition is asking the local government to prioritize the investigation into the killings.

Sherre said: “Begging for signatures meanwhile a SK family gets a 1 mil deal to tell their side of the story is exactly what’s wrong with our society!

“Shame on ya’ll and everyone who supports Asa!”

She said: “Disappointed, disgusted, flabbergasted, frustrated are a few words that come to mind right now.

“The way that the media will buy stories to further re-victimize, re-traumatize, and exploit the families & victims of serial killers is evil.”

The U.S. Sun has reached out to Ellerup’s lawyer and Peacock for comment.
