More widely recognised and legislated today in the UK is the horror that is the crime of stalking. But it hasn't always been like this - in fact, the legislation that surrounds it today had its genesis as a result of a case in the 1990's of a truly disturbing, twisted individual.

The tale of which features this week on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast.

This episode contains descriptions of crimes and events that some listeners may find disturbing or upsetting, so discretion is advised whilst listening.
