Insider's Account: Gilgo Beach Killer' Couldn't Resist Talking About Murders



In a bone-chilling account, a woman who once dated the alleged Gilgo Beach killer has shared her unnerving experience of being with suspected serial murderer Rex Heuermann.


Nikkie Brass, a former escort and hairdresser, opened up about what it was like to date Rex Heuermann, a man suspected of being a serial killer.

Appearing on the FOX Nation special, "Architect of Death," Brass revealed that Heuermann displayed an unusual eagerness to discuss his alleged crimes. She recounted, "As soon as he started talking about the Gilgo Beach killings, he stood up straighter. He leaned on the table. He got a smirk on his face. He almost seemed excited, like he had been waiting the whole dinner to talk about this."

James Fitzgerald, a former FBI agent and profiler, shared insights on Heuermann's behavior, suggesting that he was keen on gathering information about what the police knew, aiming to glean as much as possible. Paul Mauro, a retired NYPD inspector, explained that serial killers often seek notoriety to enhance their public image.


Brass, driven by her instincts, felt compelled to leave the situation and texted a friend, expressing her suspicion: "I think this is the Gilgo Beach killer." She urgently requested her friend to meet her for a safe exit.

The Gilgo Beach serial killings spanned from 1996 to 2011, primarily targeting sex workers, with a total of 11 victims discovered buried on Long Island's beach in New York. While Heuermann is charged with three of these murders, Brass believes that more individuals may be involved.

During their date, Heuermann mentioned the involvement of other individuals, whom he named, in connection with the killings. Brass claimed that he speculated about disturbing "parties" where five people would select their "favorite escort" and commit heinous acts.

Brass described their conversation as if Heuermann were reliving the events, rather than merely discussing them as an observer. Fitzgerald noted that Heuermann had meticulously planned the murders and likely targeted women who wouldn't be reported missing quickly. Brass agreed, recounting Heuermann's belief that prostitutes "didn't have anyone who cared about them."


At 59 years old, Heuermann faces charges related to the murders of three women and is considered the prime suspect in additional Gilgo Beach killings. His arrest in July led to the discovery of over 50 illegal weapons in his Massapequa Park home, including handguns and assault weapons.

Reports suggest that this cache of illegal weapons constituted only 20% of Heuermann's extensive firearm collection, which numbered over 300. His arrest even prompted his wife to file for divorce.

A search of Heuermann's Long Island residence involved cadaver dogs and ground-penetrating radar technology. 

Subsequently, a significant excavation of the property was undertaken, revealing a sound-proofed basement room described as a "serious vault" with concrete-lined walls measuring two to three feet in thickness, as confirmed by a former coworker.
