The death of cricket umpire Peter Plumley-Walker in a bondage session gone wrong in 1989 may be the subject of a documentary.
TVNZ are considering using the gruesome tale in their Sunday Theatre programming, Fairfax reported.
Plumley-Walker's body was found in Taupo after dominatrix Renee Chignell and her boyfriend Neville Walker hurled it off the Huka Falls.
But he had died earlier during a discipline session in Remuera, when Chignell tied him up and left the room to have a cigarette and a coffee. She returned to find he wasn't breathing.
The pair were found guilty of Plumley-Walker's murder but the convictions were quashed, and they were eventually acquitted.
