Elder's former fiancee files police report alleging domestic abuse

OAKLAND, Calif. — Alexandra Datig, the former fiancée and longtime radio producer for talk show host Larry Elder, said she has filed a formal police report with the Los Angeles Police Department alleging that she was subject to “several incidents of domestic abuse” while living with the GOP gubernatorial recall candidate.

Datig said she delivered the statement to LAPD Wednesday, where she said she was interviewed for two hours by detectives in the robbery and homicide division.

POLITICO first reported last week that Datig said she broke off an 18-month engagement with Elder after he pulled a loaded gun from a nightstand during an argument in 2015.

She said that out of fear and intimidation, she didn't file a police report at the time, but that she decided to make a formal report after hearing some of Elder’s public statements denying the gun incident and suggesting she fabricated the account. His denials, she told police, have resulted in her receiving hostile threats on social media.

Alexandra Datig was 20 years old when she met Fleiss.

“I was at the Rainbow Bar & Grill on Sunset Boulevard, and I was handed a phone number by one of her drug-runners. On the number it said, ‘Call this girl,’” she said.

Datig said hooking up with Fleiss was a means to an end.

“Meeting Heidi, for me, was an answer to a short-term problem, which was paying my rent and putting food on my table. I really didn’t want to be a prostitute. That was not my plan,” she said.
