Stalked: Someone's Watching - Wikipedia. Stalked: Someone's Watching (also stylized as Stalked) is an American documentary television series on Investigation Discovery that debuted on January 2. The series tells the stories of those who have been stalked and is hosted by Michelle Ward.[1][2][3] The series has been renewed for a fourth season.[4]Premise[edit]The show chronicles numerous cases—four seasons’ worth—of stalkers and their victims. The stories are told through reenactments with actor portrayals which give viewers a better picture of what exactly happened. Woven throughout each episode are interviews with various people involved in each individual case, which break up the monotony of the reenactments. Interviewees range from the victim’s family, friends, colleagues, and, of course, the victims themselves. In addition to the interviews of the aforementioned who have experienced the ordeals is Michelle Ward, the host of the show. Watch Kevin Hart: Let Me Explain Online IMDB on this page.

The Host[edit]Michelle Ward attended both the University of Colorado and the University of Southern California and has earned a Ph. D in Psychology with a focus in Clinical Neuroscience and Behavioral Genetics. Being a victim of stalking herself, Michelle Ward has studied predatory criminals and the judicial system for over ten years. She has worked in many different areas of study within the span of her continuing career. At the start of her career, she worked studying criminals, of which she separated them into two categories (impulsive- type and predatory- type). The latter would be characteristic of stalkers, which later became Ward’s main focus. In addition to her early work and later studies in genetic and biological characteristics of twins, Michelle has published several articles, with the help of her extensive studies and fulfilling career, regarding psychology and complex human behavior.[5][6] During each episode, Ward offers input at various points in the reenactments in order to explain the stalker’s behaviors, their patterns, and some theories on stalking at work.

Examples of Episodes[edit]Episodes cover a wide range of stories. In one episode, a police officer named Amy and her husband get married, but not long into their relationship, the husband’s behavior changes dramatically. His emotions become a roller coaster, ranging from extreme sadness to rage.

He insults her and scolds over every detail. He tries to exert control over every aspect of Amy’s life, down to how she styled her hair. Michelle Ward describes these outbursts of the husband as a demonstration of his lack of control. When she leaves, the intense stalking begins. Another example comes from the story of a woman named Peggy. She was pursuing a career in the medical field and moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico to do so. Once there, Peggy meets a man named Patrick and the two connect instantly.

After only a few weeks, the pace of the relationship picked up greatly at the hand of Patrick, which Michelle Ward identifies as a means of controlling the relationship. Emotional abuse sets in and after three years, Peggy leaves. Patrick, enraged at his loss of control, hunts her down and eventually kills her before taking his own life. Another episode offers a more disturbing view of stalking. A woman named Mary moves to a small suburb in Washington D. C. with her family.

She meets her neighbor, Jane and soon after, her life falls apart. Jane becomes obsessed with her and imitates her every move.

She begins to dress in the same clothes as Mary and dyed her hair to match her new “best friend.” Realizing this, Mary ignores Jane which proves to be dangerous. Jane begins to accuse Mary of anything and everything to cause pain. Michelle Ward comments that many stalkers use the façade of being a victim themselves.

Mary and her family are forced to move and the stalking comes to an end. Media Coverage of Stalking[edit]With the emergence of new technologies, stalking has been made easier via texts, GPS, social networking sites, and more. This type of stalking has been dubbed cyberstalking, and although the use of technology by predators is relatively new, the act of stalking is not a new phenomenon as many people believe. It dates back almost 2. With the emergence of technology and social media, stalking does receive more extensive coverage by media outlets; therefore, the topic has been made more familiar to the public. One famous case of celebrity stalking occurred when a woman named Genevieve Sabourin was arrested for stalking Alec Baldwin.

Like the many stories depicted in Stalked, Sabourin waited at Baldwin’s house, called him excessively, and made it seem as though the two were lovers.[8] Another recent example involving non- celebrities which made headlines involved a man named James Jones was arrested for stalking his former professor at Alabama College. Jones went to extreme means, and his stalking led to aggravated assault.

He opened fire on the woman’s house but she remained unharmed.[9]Episodes[edit]Season 1 (2. Season 2 (2. 01. 1- 2. Season 3 (2. 01. 2- 2. Season 4 (2. 01. 3- 2. References[edit]^"Investigation Discovery Enters 2.

Last year, singer Christina Grimmie was shot dead by a fan she didn't know was stalking her online. He showed up at an Orlando, Fla., concert armed with two handguns. Grimmie's death "should be a huge wake- up call," says Perrette, who has been stalked for more than a decade. Anyone watching this at any time could suddenly become a victim of a stalker.""'4. Hours" exposes the extreme, often debilitating emotional toll that being stalked has had on Perrette and others, including a lawyer, a single mother and an internet celebrity. They explain vividly, through intimate interviews, what it feels like to be targeted and how being stalked made their lives feel smaller. Macy's i. Heart. Radio Rising Star singer Christina Grimmie performs during the 2.

Heart. Radio Music Festival at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, Sept. Reuters/Steve Marcus. On June 1. 0, 2. 01. Christina Grimmie reached out to her fans on the last leg of her multi- city concert tour with the band, Before You Exit. Christina Grimmie  video: Hey guys.

What's up. We're in Orlando today. Please come to the show tonight if you live near Orlando, Florida. It's very eerie to look at that now," Bria Kelly said of the video. I would give anything to go back to when I last saw her two days before it happened and warn her. I'd give anything to be able to do that."Christina's close friend, singer Bria Kelly, will never get that chance. Operator: Emergency 9. Caller: Somebody just, uh, opened fire at the Plaza Live…He shot at one of the singers…He shot three times.

There were several panicked 9. Lead Detective Michael Moreschi of the Orlando Police Department. He says there was mass chaos with blood everywhere when first responders got to the scene.

When they first walked in there was private citizens performing CPR upon a young lady," the detective said. That young lady was 2. Christina Grimmie. She had just finished the concert."As she always did, she interacted with her fans after the show by signing autographs, taking pictures … while her brother, Marcus, sat just a few feet away from her … selling merchandise," said Det.

Moreschi. In line to meet the singer was 2. Kevin Loibl, who can be seen in a photograph, standing at the back of the theater.  Eyewitnesses would later tell the detective he didn't utter a word. Kevin Loibl, circled, can be seen in the plaid shirt photographed at the back of the theater. Orlando Police Dept. He just waited in line.

When it was his turn he just started shooting Christina," said Det. Moreschi."The very first shot- - struck Christina in the head, the gunpowder burnt the side of her head. So he was very close range when he fatally shot her," Moreschi explained.  "He just continued to fire at her as … she went down … She was shot once in the head and twice in the torso.""Marcus Grimmie … reacted by going after him … when the shooting started. And this guy backed up against a wall and shot himself in the head" Moreschi continued. He was dead on the scene.""She had no clue that this man was stalking her over the internet who was coming here tonight or that she was in any danger at all," the detective explained. Christina Grimmie never thought of the internet as dangerous, but a place for a young girl with a big dream to sing her way onto the world stage; Just her, alone, from the safety of her bedroom in south Jersey. No electronics. Just a video camera and her.

And you just saw the raw talent. And I was like, 'this girl is really good,'" Tyler Ward said. She's not trying to perform or prove herself. It was just like she was her in her room. And people connected."Singer- songwriter Tyler Ward immediately recognized a kindred spirit."We had this bond growing in social media together, figuring it out together, being some of the very first people on a platform like You.

Tube, like Twitter, and figuring out, 'OK. They became fast friends and made a video together, "How to Love.""And she was just blowin' up," said Ward."And when you say blowin' up, what do you mean by that," Moriarty asked."When I mean blowin up - - she's gainin' fans quickly," Ward explained."How many people are we talking about?""Millions and millions and millions of people," said Ward."What was it about Christina Grimmie that drew people?" Moriarty asked."Wow.

There was something about Christina that connected with people because it told people watching, 'I might be able to do what she's doing. She's just a normal girl in a small town doin' life, and people are noticing.' And it gave 'em hope," Ward explained.

In 2. 01. 1, the You. Tube sensation started making a big splash in the real world.

There was an appearance with Tyler on "Ellen" and a tour with Selena Gomez. And then her big break: a coveted spot on the reality singing show, "The Voice." Bria Kelly, also a contestant, remembers their first meeting. Everyone had been freaking out that Christina was on … the show. Because they thought that she was already famous," Kelly explained. I was, like, the one person who didn't know who she was [laughs] so she just says, 'Dude, shut up. I'm just like you. You wanna hang out?' And we hung out that night.

And were inseparable for the rest of the show."Christina made it to the final three of "The Voice," bringing the house down with a powerful rendition of the song, "Wrecking Ball.""I was freaking out backstage, I was like, 'Woo, bring it home, Christina, that's my girl,'" said Kelly. Grimmie didn't win, but that didn't stop her meteoric rise. But as Christina was taking off, a young man in Florida, Kevin Loibl, was becoming obsessed. He felt… that Christina was his soul mate," said Det. Moreschi. Loibl followed her every move online, says the detective. He even altered his appearance to make himself more attractive to her.

That included getting hair plugs, having Lasik eye surgery - - losing weight. He lost about 5. 0 pounds," said Det.

Moreschi. While Loibl's fantasies intensified, the Grimmie family—completely unaware—relocated from New Jersey to Los Angeles for Christina's career.   There was a co- starring role in a movie, "The Matchbreaker," high- profile tours, and an album in the works. Her world was in bloom."She had so much more left to give. And she was the last person in the world that I would ever suspect would be shot," said Kelly."This case was unique in the fact that there really … there was no warning," said Det. Moreschi. In search of answers, the detective made a trip to St. Petersburg, Florida where Kevin Loibl lived with his father."We went into his bedroom.

It was very nondescript," Det. Moreschi said. "There was one window, and it was covered in aluminum foil. That was from what his father described of him having an aversion to light."Kevin James Loibl, identified by Orlando Police as the gunman in the June 1. Christina Grimmie, is pictured in an undated handout photo. Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles/Handout via Reuters. Kevin Loibl rarely left his room except to go to his part- time job as a member of the Geek Squad at Best Buy, where, according to a casual work friend, everyone knew about Loibl's infatuation with Christina Grimmie.    "The friend realized at some point that this was not a normal obsession, or even an internet crush," said Det. Moreschi. Loibl's friend became so worried, he spoke to a manager about it.

But the manager didn't act on it because he didn't think it was a workplace issue. That's understandable. But Det. Moreschi says, in hindsight, the warning signs were there. He had said some goodbyes," he explained. The last day that he worked, he told a coworker that he was - - he was tired and he was ready to ascend."Kevin Loibl printed out a flyer for his own burial service, destroyed all his hard drives , and then on a warm June day, hired a taxi to make the hour- and- a- half trip from St.

Petersburg to Orlando.
