And it just took everything in me, like not to just green and cry and just be like,

you have ruined my life and ways and layers that you could never imagine.

This is in 2019.

When I finally got this protective order, this whole thing started in 2005.

There are so many things that I have not done in my life because of him.

I'm Jamie Beebe.

And I'm Jake Taptula.

On today's episode of Strickly Stocking, we're speaking with Chanel,

who stalker was a boy she met in junior high.

During college, Chanel reached out to him when his father died.

They renewed their friendship, but when his behavior became erratic,

she learned that he had been diagnosed with schizophrenia.

He became obsessed with Chanel, getting upset if she didn't answer his calls,

constantly trying to contact her, following her and carrying wedding rings around in his pocket,

so he could rose to her.

Chanel got multiple restraining orders across several states,

but even after her stalker was arrested, she continued to live in fear.

Chanel, thank you for joining us today.

Thank you.

Of course.

Tell us a little bit about your background growing up.

I am originally from Brooklyn, New York.
