175. One Move Too Far: Stalking Tara

PodcastOne
About this episode

Tara was stalked by a Facebook follower. Tara's fiance started getting messages on Facebook from someone she didn't know, and soon after, they started getting numerous texts from various numbers. They changed their numbers, but the texts only escalated, becoming more personal and threatening, including photos of Tara's house. One night their house was broken into, and they found a dead cat in their mailbox. The situation escalated even further when the stalker called DHS and made false accusations about Tara's son.
