Summary

There is so much more to discuss about the Long Island Serial Killings and the evidence against the suspect who is in custody for the murders of Amber Costello, Megan Waterman and Melissa Barthelemy. In addition to the victims who were brutally murdered, there are other victims in the orbit of this case, if indeed Rex Heuermann is the killer. Asa Ellerup was married to Heuermann for 27 years. She has since filed for divorce but she and their two children are also caught up in his crime and their world has changed forever. Lisa asks Jim and Laura their expert opinions on where they think these victims were actually murdered, if they think the killer used an alternate private location before disposing of their bodies on and around Gilgo Beach Long Island. Laura probes the timelines and wonders if there are other victims far earlier than anyone knows, drawing from learning from other cases including serial killer Dennis Rader.

Listen to Laura's Crime Analyst interview with Kerri Rawson, Dennis Rader's daughter who provides key insight in her father's behaviour:
