Stalking Cases

Obsession and pursuit that ended in violence.

11 cases

The Photo Shoot

Jamie Reynolds told seventeen-year-old Georgia Williams he needed a model for a 'fake hanging' photo shoot at his Wellington, England home — an art project he had carefully planned for while his parents were away in Italy.

The Repo Man

Repo man Mike Adams kept his Frisco, Texas showplace in flawless order — labels facing forward, a couch no one could sit on, handguns sorted by caliber — and his fixations turned menacing after Nicole Leger and her teenage son moved in.

The Canal Killer

In February 2001, two boys fishing in London's Regent's Canal snagged a duffel bag weighted with bricks — the first of six bags divers would recover, holding a woman whose missing head, hands, and feet made her nearly impossible to identify.

The Body in the Bag

Will Matheson grew up in a chaotic Sydney hoarder house shadowed by tragedy and developed a deep fixation with death — years before anyone thought to look inside the oversized cricket bag that was far too heavy to lift.

The Werewolf Butcher

In September 1994, nine-year-old Penny Davis wandered off along Patterson Creek near tiny Tonasket, Washington and vanished without a trace — the beginning of a case that led to a man who believed himself a werewolf.

Consumed by Desire

When eighteen-year-old Heather Gibson tried to break up with Chad Wiersma, he drove her to a remote spot outside Kalamazoo and threatened to kill her and her family — the opening act of an obsession that would not let go.

The Georgia Voyeur

Law graduate Lauren Giddings often sensed someone had been inside her Macon, Georgia apartment while she was away. Days before her bar exam in June 2011, she emailed a friend that she was afraid to stay there alone — then was never heard from again.

A Staged Scene

Daniel Carlson came home to the family's trailer in tiny Kapowsin, Washington, to find his wife Lisa shot to death on the couch. On the 911 call he spoke in a flat monotone, unable to recall his own address — and police found no forced entry.

Where is Heather?

Peering through his new high-powered telescope over the Ohio River, Tim Walthall watched a young woman set up her beach chair on the Kentucky shore — then witnessed something that sent him racing for the phone. The search for Heather Teague never truly ended.

Touchdowns and Pom-Poms

Freshman cheerleader Emma Walker and senior football star Riley Gaul were Central High School's picture-perfect couple in Knoxville, Tennessee — he the polite boy next door, she a girl dreaming of nursing newborns. Her parents' fondness for Riley wouldn't survive what came next.

Five Fatal Minutes

When nineteen-year-old Natalie Bollinger disappeared from Broomfield, Colorado, in December 2017, everyone pointed to the homeless man she had taken out a restraining order against. Then investigators found the Craigslist ad Natalie herself had posted.
