Armie Hammer Victim Accuses Documentary Series Of “Exploring Her Trauma”

The woman identified as Effie, who is suing actor Armie Hammer for sexual abuse, sent a note to the Los Angeles Times criticizing the documentary series “House of Hammer: Family Secrets,” about scandals in the family’s family. actor . .

She accused the producers, Elli Hakami and Julian Hobbs, of “exploiting her trauma and pain” and that the material, rather than acting as a warning, is harmful to her and other survivors.

Effie, who prefers not to give details of her identity, was the first woman to go public with the allegations against Hammer in 2021.

At the time she told the story on her Instagram, called “House of Effie”, and accused Hammer of raping her and manifesting psychopathic tendencies, with cannibalistic preferences. The post prompted dozens of other women to recount their traumatic experiences with the actor as well.

Soon after, allegations surfaced that Hammer persuaded women to participate in unsafe sexual practices.

One of the women, Paige Lorenze, claims that Hammer marked an “A” on her skin using a knife and wanted him to remove a rib so she could eat.

Courtney Vucekovich, who stayed with the actor for a few months last year, said dating Hammer was like dating Hannibal Lecter, the famous cannibal character from “The Silence of the Lambs” and “Hannibal”, who wanted to he also barbecues with your ribs.

“It is extremely inappropriate to explore such a tragic and vulnerable moment in people’s lives, regardless of our healing process or privacy,” Effie said in a statement sent to the newspaper. She says she was contacted by the producers to be included in the documentary, but she refused.

“The way they are exploiting my trauma is disgusting. When I yell ‘no’ and they keep saying they don’t need my permission, they remind me of Armie,” he said.

The documentary uses screenshots of Effie’s Instagram account and even a video she posted on YouTube.

Effie was also upset that her attorney, Gloria Allred, didn’t let her know she would be in “House of Hammer”.

But the documentary series doesn’t just investigate the actor’s abuses, revealing several secrets of his family to show that practices involving BDSM, alleged cannibalism and violence go back to his great-grandfather, Armand Hammer, an oil industry billionaire. .

The series, with three episodes, was released on Friday (2/9) on the Discovery + platform.
