NEW YORK — Ashley West and April Hall of The Rialto Report were recently tapped to serve as consulting producers on the Netflix docuseries, “Crime Scene: The Times Square Killer.”
Director Joe Berlinger delves into the story of the “Torso Killer," which begins, noted a rep, “as firemen respond to a call at a seedy hotel in the middle of Times Square in December 1979."
"What they discover among the smoke and ash shocks even the most seasoned city homicide detectives, triggering a hunt for a vicious serial killer who preyed upon sex workers operating within Times Square’s then-booming, anything-goes sex industry,” the rep said.
"With exclusive access to Jennifer Weiss, the daughter of one of the victims, the series also underscores her efforts to identify others who have remained Jane Does, lost to an infamous, long-gone time and place," added the rep.
The series premieres Wednesday, Dec. 29 on Netflix; a trailer can be found on YouTube.
