What Rex Heuerman Will Lie To The FBI About!
Rex Heuermann agreed to sit down with the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit. He’ll walk into that room thinking he controls the conversation — that he gets to decide what to share, what to hold back, and how to shape the story. Former FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke says Heuermann will “dribble and draft” the information, using it as currency. That’s how these interviews always go.
Except the FBI has something they’ve almost never had before. Prosecutors recovered a planning document from Heuermann’s hard drive — a Word file he created, updated over years, and thought he’d erased. According to court filings, it contained eighty-seven specific details about how he prepared, killed, and disposed of evidence. His own written methodology, recovered from his own basement. When Heuermann talks, the FBI won’t just be listening. They’ll be checking.
Tony traces the fifty-year history of the FBI’s killer interview program from its origins with agents Ressler and Douglas through the thirty-six foundational interviews that built modern criminal profiling. He walks through the cases where cooperation produced results the evidence alone never could — Gary Ridgway leading investigators to four bodies, Samuel Little’s ninety-three confessions solving cold cases across the country. The program works not because killers cooperate willingly, but because the FBI has spent decades learning how to turn their narcissism into something useful.
Heuermann is the first digital-era serial killer the BAU has studied. The question isn’t whether he’ll try to lie. It’s whether his own notes will let him.
