A Peacock spokesperson tells
Rolling Stone that Ellerup was not paid for her participation in the series, and has no creative control over it, but she was paid a standard licensing fee for use of her archival material. That money, however, cannot go towards Heuermann, or his defense funds…
Speaking with
The Times, departing Suffolk County, Long Island police commissioner Rodney Harrison called the docuseries “a smack at the family members who lost a loved one.” Meanwhile, Suffolk County prosecutor Ray Tierney said the film project could “affect [Ellerup’s] credibility,” especially if she is called to testify.
Asa Ellerup, wife of suspected Long Island serial killer Rex Heuermann, has agreed to partake in a new docuseries for Peacock.
