Billie Eilish stalker killed by train in Long Island horror

by

I… I can’t even talk about this. It’s just awful. Apparently, that… that guy, the one who kept obsessing over Billie, he’s… gone. They said he was hit by a train. It’s just… so incredibly sad, but honestly, it’s also terrifying. He’d been following her for years, and now… it’s just a lot to process. I’m just worried about Billie, truly. This whole thing is just heartbreaking and scary all at once.

Around 5:38 a.m., a Long Island Rail Road train struck Prenell Rousseau, a 30-year-old resident of Farmingdale, in Westbury, authorities reported.

According to police, Rousseau was jogging close to the train tracks when he died. The incident is being investigated as an accident, The Post reports.

Okay, so I first really noticed this guy, Rousseau, back in 2020. He just kept showing up at Billie’s house in LA, like, constantly. It was seriously creeping everyone out – Billie, her family, all of us fans who were worried about her! Eventually, they had to get a restraining order against him because he wouldn’t leave her alone. It was a scary time, honestly.

Records show he acted strangely during several visits to her family’s home in May, ultimately leading to his arrest for being on the property illegally.

According to reports, during one of these visits, the singer’s father, Patrick O’Connell, spoke with Rousseau at the door. Rousseau supposedly said he might be at the wrong address, but then came back later that same day.

According to court records, Rousseau repeatedly visited the property on May 4th and 5th, and his behavior became increasingly unstable, causing significant distress to Billie Eilish and her family.

Mark D. Passin, the attorney for the plaintiff, asked the judge for a five-year restraining order. However, Judge Gould-Saltman decided on a three-year order, stating it could be renewed if Rousseau tried to contact them again.

When Rousseau first visited the house, he used the Ring doorbell camera to ask Eilish’s father, Patrick O’Connell, if the singer lived there.

Although Patrick told him he had the wrong address, Rousseau came back later that evening.

Court documents reveal concerning behavior. He was seen sitting on the porch, reading and talking to himself, and wouldn’t leave even when Patrick asked him to multiple times.

He left when the security guards showed up, but came back later that night, hiding behind a wall as if he intended to remain there.

The family was especially worried because Rousseau didn’t seem to care about COVID safety. He didn’t wear a mask on five separate visits and kept touching the doorbell and doorknobs with his bare hands, which made them feel even more uncomfortable and violated.

Eilish called the incidents ‘frightening’ and explained how much stress they caused her and her family.

Even with the restraining order in place, Rousseau’s continued attempts to contact her and his erratic behavior were very disturbing.
