Exclusive | Rex Heuermann has shown ‘no remorse’ since his arrest according to pal – who thinks he’ll be killed in prison

Rex Heuermann has been in jail for almost two years, during which he has shown no remorse for his seven alleged victims, The Post has learned.

The one-time architect, 61, stands accused of murdering sex workers between 1993 and 2011 and dumping their bodies along Ocean Parkway in Long Island.

His friend who visited him in jail, David Jimenez, 63, says he wouldn’t give him details about the alleged crimes, but also showed no emotion for anyone beside himself.

“I personally think he disconnects one [personality] from the other and has no remorse.

“I think he’s got a split personality. I literally said to him, ‘I’m looking at you eye-to-eye and I know you. And this is like, there’s somebody else sitting next to me that committed these crimes,” Jimenez said.

“And it’s like a dark side of you, psychopathic, Machiavellian. It’s sadistic’.”

Heuermann – who has pleaded not guilty to all charges against him – still has to stand trial and his wife, Asa Ellerup, maintains he is not a serial killer.

However, Jimenez — who also works in architecture — feels his ex-pal is resigned to his fate.

“He knows intellectually he’s lost all his life, everything. I remember him calling me and saying from the correctional facility, ‘Are you interested in taking my building code books, my historic ones? So, he realizes he’s never going to use them again.”

Jimenez also feels Heuermann won’t admit to anything because he wants to watch the trial unfold and all the gory details to be poured over once again in open court.

“I think [the trial] is the last time he feels in any kind of control over anything. Why not just either admit it and ask for help, or admit it and ask for forgiveness?

“Even though you can never bring back those lives and you’ve destroyed, why go through trial? Because he’s going to put the family through this and expose all these ugly things.”

Jimenez also recognizes that, like all high-profile killers, hulking 6’ 4” Heuermann is going to have a target on his back as far as other inmates are concerned due to the nature of his alleged crimes, if he is sent to prison.

“[He] will be a target in prison. Maybe not right away, but over the years, he’s going to be a target and somebody will want to take his life.”
