Patti Stewart was stalked by a man she met online.


After briefly dating, she reported him to his Air Force chain of command, but no action was taken. Being stalked destroyed Patti’s business, and her mental health suffered, so she took matters into her own hands and rebounded by helping other women through self-defense training and private investigative services. Patti continues to share her story of healing, as well as tips and advice on staying safe.

S4 / E192 Protecting Women: Stalking Patti Stewart

Strictly Stalking is a weekly true crime podcast exploring true stalking stories from survivors — in their own words. Every Tuesday, hosts Jaimie Beebe and Jake Deptula cover a unique stalking case by interviewing stalking survivors, advocates, and experts.

True crime

Maggie, a beauty influencer, found herself in the clutches of a cyberstalker whose identity remained shrouded in mystery. Following the launch of her online beauty venture, Maggie was inundated with sexually explicit messages and manipulated images of her face inserted into lewd photographs. Despite the stalker's demands for nude photos in exchange for ceasing the harassment, Maggie steadfastly ignored him.
The situation took a darker turn when the stalker created a fake Instagram profile mirroring one of Maggie's friends. He infiltrated her live online beauty show, exposing himself to her unsuspecting followers. Faced with this escalating harassment, Maggie and her husband sought assistance from a Private Detective, transforming into amateur sleuths on a mission to unveil the identity of Maggie's tormentor.
Listen as Maggie updates us on her stalker, his identity, and her life after telling her story on Strictly Stalking. We’ll play the original episode after the intro, if you know this story well, you can fast forward to around the 1 hour mark to hear Maggie’s update.

Case Update: Stalking Beauty: An Influencer’s Terror

Lisa is currently being stalked by a woman who initially connected with her on social media.

This woman, acquainted with Lisa's ex-husband, has resorted to disclosing personal information about Lisa, her life, and her family on online platforms. Despite Lisa blocking her on Instagram due to offensive comments, the stalker persists by creating new profiles to continue the harassment. Seeking legal protection, Lisa secured a temporary protective order against the stalker. However, due to the stalker's absence during the hearing, the case was ultimately dismissed. Undeterred, Lisa is determined to share her ordeal to raise awareness about the havoc stalkers can wreak and to caution others about the potential dangers they pose.

Annie Bowles is advocating for the release of April Wilkens, who was given a life sentence for killing her stalker in an act of self-defense.

Annie is striving to bring attention to the issue of criminalized survivorship and is pushing for the passage of the Oklahoma Survivors Act. This legislation aims to help survivors of domestic violence by allowing evidence of abuse to be presented during trials to potentially reduce their sentences. During the second half of this episode, we will be sharing parts of an interview Annie conducted with April in prison, allowing her to share her own story.

**The following episode of Strictly Stalking contains graphic language and topics including sexual assault, domestic violence and homocide. Listener discretion is advised.**
