<modsnip: Quoted post was removed> ... In my lifetime I have experienced an event that was so traumatizing that, in the early stages, I could not have learned any more about it without my mind completely giving way. Many people didn't understand my response, and yes, I was viciously criticized for it, but I knew I had to protect my sanity in that space in order to move even one step forward. So, from my perspective, it is completely understandable how AE and VH MIGHT not be psychologically ready to know any more of the horrific details.

Just thought I'd offer that up.

Yes, makes sense that a person's psyche can only handle so much trauma at once.
And yet, there's a million dollar commitment where it's been announced she (they?) will attend his court appearances, and this statement, “I will listen to all of the evidence and withhold judgment until the end of trial," Ellerup said in the statement. "I have given Rex the benefit of the doubt, as we all deserve.”
How could a person withstand not being psychologically ready to know more of the horrific details and attend his court appearances to listen to all the evidence at the same time?

Could the RH's Stockholm Syndrome note be in relation to her/AE??
 
Does he have a hunting cabin or blind he's adapted?
He has a boat doesn't he did he have a boat house?
Really worried about the idea of a cabin. I have not heard he had any cabin. But I'm also thinking of the cabin, with his money and interests, it would seem a logical thing to have. I'm also really frightened maybe it wasn't just RH alone, either. And maybe some "buddy" had access, too. Or "buddies." moo
 
Okay some more thoughts -MOO

We know that in 1993- he didn't dismember. Three years later we have Karen vergata who was dismembered. Personally I think that he's good for everyone found on Ocean parkway, he then stops dismembering for Asian doe and the gilgo 4. He had been using ocean parkway for nearly 15 years without the bodies being found, so I wonder if that's why he stopped dismembering he thought he was safe. After the victims were found on Gilgo we have a year in between searches maybe he reined himself in for that year, perhaps he was worried he would be caught and he knew there were people they didn't find in 2010. So say from 2012-2020 when covid hit, what was he upto? He had a black chevy Avalanche when arrested. I was convinced there was another site that he placed body parts because some of the body parts ie Karen's Torso not being found but the bail documents show he only used two. Feel free to pick this apart I won't be offended.
Did Sandra have any tattoos? Jessica did, Peaches did. Karen Vergata had a surgical scar on her left leg.
Asian Male has never been mentioned in association with a tattoo (that I've seen, anyhow). He was also not dismembered. However, I'm not seeing any mention of Valerie Mack having a tattoo, and she went missing back in 2000. She was dismembered. But did they ever recover her full skeleton? Seeing this: "Mack's dismembered remains were located in separate locations over an 11-year span. Her torso was found in Manorville in 2000, not long after she was last seen. In 2011, her head, hands and right foot were found by Gilgo Beach."
Saying maybe he used to be incredibly careful w/the tattoos/identifying marks and as you said, at some point later, he figured he was safe.

But also of interest would be the idea that Valerie Mack and Jessica Taylor were both tied up like a hunter did it. Source: “Their leg area was bound in a ball,” one former investigator told PIX11 News. “You’d have to be a hunter to do something like that.” https://pix11.com/news/local-news/l...fore-being-tied-to-gilgo-beach-serial-killer/
So RH does things very differently here, too, with the way he left Sandra C. v the way he left Jessica & Valerie. This makes me wonder a lot about what he's covering up with his M/O, per his own notes for "Problems, " "M/O Plastic Bag/Cat Litter." I would think to soak up blood and fluid, too, but he lists "Blood Stains" as a separate problem just above. https://www.scribd.com/document/739...Superseding-Bail-Application-from-June-6-2024

None of the OP victims after Jessica Taylor were dismembered, so Amber, Megan, Melissa, Maureen. I know at least one of these victims DID have tattoos, but none dismembered. So was RH maybe more fearful and cautious in relation to tattoos early on, and as you note, he felt safe and became more comfortable, so he stopped dismembering? As of 2002, he was still noting the tattoos on his "HK" doc. So he was still concerned on them then. Maybe this is why he didn't dismember in 1993, no tattoo? OR something with his vehicle situation may have changed.
I think we need to look back as far as 1983
Me too. Maybe even a little further.

I'll have to clarify a bit because the post I was responding to was mod snipped. I was specifically referring to this moment in time, and how I could understand why it might be true that she really hadn't read the recent bail hearing documents, as her attorney stated. It's only been a day.

I'll have to leave it there, but I hope that helps clarify my post.

As far as i know, peaches head was never found, maybe she had a tattoo on her neck? Karen vergatas torso was also never found, perhaps there was a tattoo on that. Or maybe thinking back to the Gilgo four he was changing his MO deliberately after four murders just to confuse LE, maybe people thought there was more than one SK on LI because he was the ultimate copycat. Just MOO
 
The only thing I can specifically recall being of interest to me was the school mate who spoke of Rex being taunted for being a " mama's boy " due to him always bowing out of doing stuff because his mother needed him at home, and the theater girl who told the story of the curtains. The " mama's boy " story stood out to me because it made me wonder about his attachment to the house. Did his mother really impose that kind of pressure on him as a kid, or did he just use that as an excuse to his school mates because he just didn't want to leave his safe space and socializing was too hard for him ?

( We should probably start a new thread for this topic if we want to really pick it apart so we don't bog down this thread for those who aren't interested. But I'm relieved to know I'm not the only one interested in these things. )
At the end of the day........... EVERYONE is going to be trying to pick him apart, right?

I could see the theater curtain prank as an overactive budding engineering mind.

The mama's boy... --- Not enough there yet. Who was around him as he was growing up? Who was living in that house over those years.... relatives? tenants?

for example.... was he killing animals in the backyard? ha ha.... just the standard question, right?

This is an interesting one. My best guess was that something happened during one of his Urgh *playtime sessions * that had him curious

Really worried about the idea of a cabin. I have not heard he had any cabin. But I'm also thinking of the cabin, with his money and interests, it would seem a logical thing to have.

I have a hard time with this to be honest. He doesn't seem that social to me. I could be wrong though
 
Is there video of him getting arrested? I have not followed this case and have only caught bits and pieces on the news. I would guess it wasn't fear he felt but lack of control and the uncertainty that came with it.

Hi Artis..
This case takes much time. I've had to walk away at times, but come back. I believe he will, forever, become one of the most notorious serial killers ever.

Since there are so threads here... I would, at least, recommend going to MSM (or find them in the back threads here)
for the articles that seem to porport "everything you need to know about rex heuermann... they are out there and might be helpful this late in the story...

There is no way of knowing if Asian Doe had any tattoos as they are unidentified and their PMI was five to ten years. They would have been completely skeletonised, as were at least some of the GB4, which means we have no idea if their known tattoos were also removed, just that they were not, to our current public knowledge, dismembered.

The description on Wikipedia of Valerie and how she was found makes me believe that all of her was found in the end, and that her right foot was removed deliberately to conceal a tattoo and deposited on the beach with her head and hands (and her left probably remained with her torso).


MOO
 
When he was ambushed on the street and arrested, I feel he felt fear.
Now, I think it makes him nervous that he doesn't "know" what is in discovery yet.
When they left his house in '23 and hadn't discovered the "kill room" I think was pleased.
He is a psychopath. And he doesn't experience fear is a good definition of him.

Your statements here do show those 'possible feelings" he experienced.'

Now thinking about it, I can just imagine how gloatingly good he must have felt when they had not found the basement chamber.

The mama's boy... eh. Not enough there yet. Who was around him as he was growing up? There was a sister with that address in Massapequa up until 1970, but who else?? (source: Ancestry)

for example.... was he killing animals in the backyard? ha ha.... just the standard question, right?
I totally agree. Which is why I suggested that we should probably start a new thread if we wanted to continue to bounce ideas around. No point in bottle necking this thread with thoughts and ideas based solely on a few grain of information. ;)

You have an excellent point. It does point to concealment. Ive been talking to someone who has been looking at forums for John's to rate Escorts and I asked her if they mention tattoos she said they do.
 
HIs planning doc seems to be all about his murdering, leading me to think he's relating it to the girls. I could possibly see if the girls had pleaded for their lives, perhaps he confused that with Stockholm Syndrome. IMO.

Or if they pretended to like him to try and get him to release them.
 
Stockholm Syndrome has been applied to abusive relationships, for Stockholm Syndrome to become "a thing," there needs to be a long-term, established relationship. Source: "People develop positive feelings toward their captors or abusers over time." I'd think of it like brainwashing. But he may have had some kind of longer-term relationship with some victim/s. But I wouldn't rule it out for AE, maybe he abused her. I'd find it difficult to believe he didn't, in light of what we're finding out about him. And his first wife was gone relatively quickly, and we don't know why. AE as "wife" was an important "cog" in his wheel. Maybe he was interested in making sure he'd know how to manipulate her.
 
One thing that seems curious is that for all the SW's that he has been with over the past 40 years, what about the ones that got away? The ones he didn't kill and torture. We heard from one who went on a date with him and sensed his depravity - and possibly saved her own life - but surely there must be more. MOO.
