Summary

Devann aka Lady Devann was stalked by an obsessed follower who blamed her for the death of his brother. After live streaming her gameplay to thousands of fans online, Devann received a request from a follower who wanted a signed photo for his dead brother. This follower convinced himself that Devann was responsible for his brother's demise and sought "revenge" posting online that Devann was being held hostage and that her boyfriend was pimping her out. He made a series of rape and death threats towards Devann and was banned from Twitch.tv and then stalked her fans, harassed her sponsors, and effectively tried to destroy her life.
