Family Stalked for a year and Find out the Stalker was living in their own Home: Case of Melinda Pleskovic

Behind You

Have you ever had the feeling like you're being watched? Like when you go to the bathroom at night and you feel like someones behind you so you start speed walking. Or if its dark outside and you look out the window and think “what if I look out there and I see a person staring at me?” Now this may just be me because I watch a lot of true crime but if you’ve ever seen the movie “The Strangers”, its about a family being stalked by a group of masked people that one day break into the home to torture the family. And in Strongsville, Ohio the Pleskovic family was going through the same thing. For an entire year the family had placed police reports and complaints of a group of people terrorizing and harassing the family. Such as stealing from their cars, breaking into the backyard and stare at them from afar, and even stealing their car keys to automatic start their cars and pull their alarms in the middle of the night. And in October of 2017, the mother of the family Melinda Pleskovic was brutally shot and stabbed over 35 times in her own kitchen. Police assumed the masked culprits terrorizing the family had done this. But little did police know, the culprit of all this harassment and the Melindas murder, would be living in their own home.
