Victims’ lawyer claims Gilgo Monster’s wife was sicko accomplice!
BLOOD ON HER HANDS?

GILGO Beach Monster Rex Heuermann’s troubled wife, Asa Ellerup, should be treated as an accomplice in the accused serial killer’s murder spree — not as an innocent bystander — because she turned a blind eye to her hubby’s twisted taste for young hookers and allowed him to bring them home, a lawyer for the victims’ families rages!

The 59-year-old nurse “should be considered a suspect and not just a bystander or someone who’s been victimized by her husband!” fumes attorney John Ray, who is representing the kin of Gilgo murder victims Jessica Taylor and Shannan Gilbert.

Ray’s explosive allegations come more than a month after hulking 6-foot-4 Heuermann, 59, was arrested and charged with the murders of three sex workers, whose bodies were callously dumped along the shores of Long Island’s now notorious Gilgo Beach in 2010 and 2011.

“Ellerup is complicit in her husband’s solicitation and use of sex workers in his home over the course of years,” Ray charges.

However, Heuermann’s wife filed for divorce immediately after his July 13 arrest for the murders of Megan Waterman, 22, Melissa Barthelemy, 24, and Amber Lynn Costello, 27.

Ellerup’s attorney Robert Macedonio dismissed Ray’s bombshell claims, saying, “Let me reiterate: Asa or the children are not suspects.”
