DM link about items returned to AE.
I love the DM scoops. The video is a circus - AE and her legal team walking the dog while the DM videos it.
Accused serial killer Rex Heurrmann's estranged wife, Asa Ellerup, 59, and their family have gotten some relief as her ex-husband faces trial for the Gilgo Beach murders.

'The family is thankful and relieved that they're starting to get some of their personal property back,' Bob Macedonio, Ellerup's attorney, told
Newsday, adding that the returned items will not be used as evidence in the accused killer's case.
'We've been in constant contact with the district attorney's office, and last month we started to receive the return of personal items that prosecutors determined did not have evidentiary value in the prosecution of Rex Heuermann.'

Heuerrman (pictured in court), 61, was arrested in 2023 and charged with the murder of six women - at least four of whom were sex workers before their deaths
Macedonio told the outlet that the family received 'in excess of 50 manila envelopes' and 'personal electronic devices.'
'We were told by the district attorney's office that we would continue to receive personal property of Asa [Ellerup], Victoria [Heuermann] and Christopher [Sheridan] on a rolling basis as it's processed,' he said.
Victoria is the daughter of Heuermann and Ellerup, while Christopher is Ellrup's son from a previous relationship.
Ellerup filed for divorce six days after Heuermann was charged with the first three murders.
Other items that have been returned, according to Macedonio, include greeting cards from a family member, multiple gift cards sent to the family after Heuermann's arrest, and personal documents.
The lawyer revealed that the gift cards totaled approximately $1,000, along with a personal check from someone in Iceland. The amount of the check is unclear.
Vess Mitev, the attorney representing Victoria and Christopher, said that while some of his client's personal items were returned last month, a lot more remain in police custody.
