In a recent press conference, attorney John Ray unveiled chilling details about Victoria Heuermann, daughter of Rex Heuermann, the alleged Gilgo Beach serial killer. Ray presented a series of sadistic images created by Victoria that bore eerie similarities to the brutal murders her father has been charged with.
Rex Heuermann, a 60-year-old architect, was initially arrested in July 2023 for the murders of four women, known as the "Gilgo Four," whose remains were discovered in burlap sacks along Ocean Parkway over a decade ago. Last week, Heuermann was charged with two more murders, those of Sandra Costilla and Jessica Taylor. Despite the mounting evidence and charges, Heuermann displayed no emotion during his recent court appearances.
During the press conference, Ray highlighted several of Victoria's disturbing artworks and re-posted images from her Tumblr account. These images included graphic depictions of dismembered body parts and cannibalistic fantasies, which Ray compared to the alleged methods of the Gilgo Beach murders.
"The evidence that we have suggests that we have been sold a story by the Heuermann family," Ray stated. He emphasized that Victoria, who often appeared innocent in public, had a darker side revealed through her online presence. "Victoria's true self is a very different self," Ray added.
Ray suggested that Victoria, now 27, might be linked to some of the murders her father is charged with. He proposed that Victoria could have been surrounded by these gruesome acts and become desensitized, a concept forensic psychologist Dr. Gary Brucato referred to as "normalization." Brucato also mentioned the possibility of Victoria suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, where a victim develops psychological bonds with their captor or abuser.
"The jury is out on what this was about," Brucato remarked, noting that about 20% of serial killers operate in groups. He drew parallels to cases like David Parker Ray, the "Toy-Box Killer," who allegedly tortured and killed numerous women with the help of his daughter.
Ray further questioned the certainty of District Attorney Raymond Tierney's announcement that hair evidence found on some of Rex Heuermann's victims was transferred by him. Ray speculated that the hairs could belong to Victoria herself, which might "tip the card a little bit."
Victoria's mother, Asa Ellerup, and Victoria have both deleted their social media accounts, according to Ray. This move came after Ray's office discovered and revealed seven disturbing images from Victoria's alleged Tumblr blog, which she had failed to erase entirely.
Ray displayed one image of a hanged person missing a shoe, a detail eerily similar to the discovery of Sandra Castillo's body. Another image depicted remains that appeared "half-eaten," reflecting the cannibalistic interests attributed to Victoria. Other images showed severed limbs, mirroring the dismemberment found in some of Rex Heuermann's alleged victims.
Dr. Brucato compared the Heuermann case to that of John Wayne Gacy, who was initially thought to be a lone wolf but is now believed to have had accomplices. "There is a tendency to think that these people are lone wolves who cannot have connections with other people," Brucato explained.
Sherre Gilbert, sister of victim Shannan Gilbert, criticized Ray's press conference on social media, calling it "disrespectful" and urging focus solely on her sister's case.
Rex Heuermann's family maintains they were unaware of his double life. Ellerup, who filed for divorce shortly after Heuermann's arrest, continues to assert her estranged husband's innocence. "After 27 years with Mr. Heuermann, Ms. Ellerup maintains the belief that her estranged husband is not capable of committing these heinous acts," stated Ellerup's attorney, Robert Macedonio.
As the investigation continues, the revelations about Victoria Heuermann's disturbing artwork and potential involvement in the murders add a new, unsettling layer to the case.
