Strictly Stalking

Molly is a licensed clinical social worker whose job turned into a nightmare when a client began stalking and terrorizing her. Despite early warning signs and escalating aggression, her pleas for help were dismissed by supervisors and law enforcement. The stalking intensified, leading to a violent workplace attack and a court-issued protection order. Years later, just as she thought it was behind her, Molly’s stalker resurfaced - sending a threatening letter from Japan and triggering an FBI investigation. Forced out of the career she loved, Molly has rebuilt her life with heightened security and a new mission: to raise awareness, fight for therapist safety, and empower others to speak out when they feel unsafe.

Anne is a survivor of relentless stalking and harassment at the hands of her ex-partner. She reached out for help—police, social services, even family court—but every system meant to protect her failed. Dismissed as “not high-risk enough,” Anne was left in limbo, while the threats and control continued, even after she left the relationship. Now, she is speaking out—to warn others, to reveal how quickly abuse can escalate to femicide, and to demand urgent change for survivors and their children.

Rebecca endured 33 terrifying weeks of stalking at the hands of a fellow student in her college acting class. Red flags were everywhere, threats escalated—but instead of protection, she was silenced. Title IX officials dismissed her, and her search for justice left her isolated, bullied, and retraumatized. Even after the stalking ended, the trauma lingered. Living with PTSD, Rebecca was repeatedly denied support simply because her stalker wasn’t a former partner. Only through Cognitive Processing Therapy did she begin to reclaim her life. Today, Rebecca is using her voice to raise awareness, demand change, and fight so that no other survivor has to face the same failures she did.

Ted thought he had built a peaceful life in Oklahoma. A Navy veteran, father, and small business owner, he had spent decades serving others with integrity. But in 2025, everything changed. A local family targeted him with stalking, racial abuse, and intimidation. False accusations spread. Threats followed him in broad daylight. And the police—tied personally to his tormentors—looked the other way. This is the story of how one man’s quiet life became a fight for survival.

For six years, Ally was hunted by a faceless predator—someone who stole her photos, her identity, even images of her friends and family, to lure victims into a web of deceit. No matter how hard she fought, the lies only spread deeper.

Bryan thought he was starting fresh when he moved to Hawaii during the pandemic and met someone on a dating app. Instead, his brief romance spiraled into a years-long nightmare. Her soon-to-be ex-husband wasn’t just lurking in the background—he was stalking them, bugging her phone, planting hidden cameras, and, according to the FBI, plotting to frame Bryan himself. As a cybersecurity expert, Bryan was ironically the one law enforcement suspected first. But after a federal investigation, the truth came out—the real stalker was exposed and sentenced to nearly eight years in prison. Now, Bryan reveals how he survived the emotional fallout, the toll it took on his relationships, and the red flags he wishes he hadn’t ignored.

Madison was just 23 when she moved across the country, chasing a fresh start in Florida. She thought a new job at a grocery store would be the beginning of something good. Instead, it became the start of a nightmare. A co-worker’s flirtation turned into obsession—hundreds of calls in a single night, constant stalking, and finally, a violent break-in where he claimed she belonged to him. When Madison went to the police for help, her pleas were dismissed. Years later, she’s still haunted by anonymous messages… and the fear that it’s not over.

Hyde’s childhood was torn apart when her mother became involved with a violent neighbor.  What followed was years of terror—stalking, threats, and even an attempted abduction from school.  Eventually, a vicious assault led to his arrest and a 12-year prison sentence. But the nightmare didn’t end there.  Even from behind bars, he found ways to torment them with threats—and chilling confessions that he was a serial killer. The weight of that trauma pushed Hyde into isolation as a teenager. But in time, she transformed her pain into purpose.  Today, after more than two decades working in shelters and youth advocacy, she’s dedicated her life to protecting the next generation of at-risk kids.

Bryce had a stalker—someone who knew her every move. But she didn’t even know his name. They never met in person. At least, not that she’s aware of. But he’s seen her. He’s watched her family. He’s studied her friends. She only knows what he wants her to know—starting with the one image he chose to send. What began as a harmless friendship in the world of online gaming soon spiraled into something much darker: a calculated obsession that would turn her life upside down.

Alexis grew up in the shadows of neglect and abuse, with a stepmother whose control didn’t end when she left home at 17. Even from a distance, the stalking and manipulation continued — a relentless effort to keep Alexis under her thumb. But Alexis fought back in the quietest, most powerful way: by healing. Through somatic therapy and EMDR, she’s learning to calm her nervous system, reclaim her sense of safety, and rebuild trust in herself. Her journey hasn’t been easy — but it’s given her a sharp clarity. She now recognizes the red flags, holds her boundaries, and protects the peace she fought so hard to find. Today, Alexis is here to share her story — not just to speak her truth, but to let others know they’re not alone. **The following episode of Strictly Stalking contains graphics depictions of physical violence.

Kimberly thought she was meeting a charming real estate manager. She had no idea he’d already been stalking her for a month—or that his entire identity was a lie. He was actually a U.S. Department of State special agent with a 30-year history of using his badge and gun to terrorize women across the country. What began as quiet digital surveillance spiraled into a brutal campaign of threats, harassment, rape, and attempted murder. Kimberly fled more than 1,300 miles—twice—but he used his federal ties to track her down, even pulling other law enforcement into his twisted pursuit. Eight officers in five states turned her away. But Kimberly wouldn’t stay silent. She was determined to expose the predator behind the badge. **The following episode of Strictly Stalking contains graphics depictions of physical violence and sexual assault.

Jennifer didn’t just have one stalker—she had two. For over two years, she was haunted by anonymous phone calls that kept coming, no matter how many times she changed her number. Then, the calls spread to her friends and coworkers. Just when it seemed to stop… it started all over again. This time, it was a coworker’s ex—furious, obsessed, and blaming Jennifer for the breakup. The harassment began online, but quickly turned into something far more dangerous: cyberstalking, in-person encounters, and relentless fear. It finally ended when Jennifer made the only choice she could—walking away from her job, and her stalker, for good.

Laura’s life was turned upside down by a relentless stalker — and now, she’s fighting back. He tried to photograph her inside a bathroom stall, then broke into her car… her home… even physically attacked her. He stole photos of her children and obsessively watched videos of her young son. Over and over, he snuck into her office, locked her out, and accessed her personal devices. But despite the clear evidence, Laura was the one labeled unstable. She lost her job — while her stalker still works there. Now, Laura’s not just fighting for herself. She’s standing up for her children, her colleagues, and the students she once protected.

Andrew’s life was shattered by someone he barely even knew—a person who turned a simple business partnership into a 15-year nightmare of obsession, harassment, and relentless stalking. When the partnership fell apart, his stalker didn’t walk away—instead, they weaponized the legal system. They secured a default judgment, not based on facts, but because Andrew simply didn’t have the resources to fight back. That judgment became their tool of control, slowly dismantling Andrew’s life piece by piece. Years of torment left him homeless, isolated, and battling multiple suicide attempts. But Andrew refused to let that be the end of his story. He’s rebuilt his life—and his brand—on survival, resilience, and the raw truth of what it takes to fight back. **The following episode of Strictly Stalking contains topics including attempted suicide. Listener discretion is advised.** HAVE YOU EXPERIENCED STALKING?  LET US KNOW: strictlystalkingpod@gmail.com PLEASE VISIT OUR SPONSORS!
