In July 2022, a 27-year-old single mom from England named Shaye Groves, was convicted of murdering her boyfriend, 25-year-old Frankie Fitzgerald. Shaye had an obsessive fascination with serial killers, true crime documentaries, and r*pe fantasy, and her walls were adorned with framed pictures of notorious serial killers whom she "admired."

Horrifyingly, after discovering some messages on Frankie's phone, Shaye went on to brutally stab him 17 times. In the aftermath of the murder, Shaye then attempted to fabricate a narrative that portrayed herself as a victim of sexual violence. She even went so far as to manipulate/edit intimate video footage from her bedroom to make previously agreed-upon "consensual non-consensual" (CNC) sex acts appear like assault. This is not a clear cut case involving a crime of passion. It’s about a disturbing fixation that metastasized, and a woman who walked the line between fandom and bloodlust…and then crossed it with a blade.
