I found Baby Reindeer's real life Martha in minutes says reporter - all it took was three key words

The real-life alleged stalker in Baby Reindeer last night admitted having four mobile phones and six email addresses — but denied ever hounding the show’s creator.

Law graduate Fiona Harvey, 58 — said to have inspired the Netflix drama — accused Richard Gadd of being a “psychotic misogynist” whose hit series is “completely untrue”.

She told of horrendous abuse she has suffered since “sleuths” tracked her down, including death threats.

And, in a no-holds-barred interview with Piers Morgan, Fiona vowed to sue Netflix and Gadd, 34, over the “defamatory” depiction of her as Martha.

The seven-parter, written by and starring Gadd, sees barman Donny Dunn stalked by a Scottish woman called Martha after he gives her a free cup of tea out of sympathy.

Hmmm. My sympathy begins to wane when I see the allegation that this woman phoned social services and fabricated a case against a woman who fired her, claiming her former boss had hit a child. That is as low as a person can go.

The victim always remembers every detail. The perpetrators never do, they never remember and they always find a way to turn it around on the victim. I know. 23 years ago for me and though I’ve recovered to an extent after years in therapy, it never really goes away.

[DimWit]

a definition of a stalker is, when two people go on a romantic walk, but only one of them knows about it.😂

[bees.]

When the emails are made public, she'll probably blame all of her 9 cats for using her 6 cell phones.

[talitabotana]

You shouldnt have searched for her, search for the assaulter !

[PoppyMom]

I would think that Netflix’s lawyers would have seen the actual evidence that Mr Gadd was able to produce, before any sort of series would have been made or buying the rights for his play/show, or is it just a case of wishful thinking that Netflix would have done their due diligence beforehand?

41, 000 emails would equal 112 emails a day for a year. Aaron Carter said his OTHER stalker Randilynn emailed him 300 times a day (her and her friend, so around 600 a day between the 2)

So her writing 112 a day isn't impossible, especially if its within a couple years time.
He also kept telling her to leave her alone (on his, theyre still online) and she would get blocked and create new screen names.

So its Possible.

I say OTHER stalker becaise HIS ex fiance is his main stalker, she and Randilynn would try to out stalk and harass each other)

I feel bad for Richard for what he went through with Fiona.

[wazzajack]

Proof of the amount of emails and messages proves the stalking. The victim doesn’t hide his own bad choices being self deprecating. In creating the story his Dad’s experience is revealed. Why would he choose to make that up. So to me that indicates the truthfulness of his account.

“Found me in minutes?It’s easy to find people, isn’t it?!”~Fiona probably

[yayagarcia]

41k emails can happen. She post like 20 times a day on her Facebook!!

[lamusica]

How do you sleep at night? The way you justify your muck raking is disturbing, especially when Richard expressed that he didn't want that to happen. The fact that you wanted her to be pushed more, its just weird

[cloudysunsets]

I thought media like publishers for example did background checks when publishing a true story or biography

[WeShallOvercome_]

So what’s the name of the court case where Fiona was convicted of a crime, please?

[barbaraheaton]

Were you able to verify if she has a police record for either Richard or the politician?

[whumanati]

Wouldn't surprise me if it was some sort of publicity stunt.

[Tommy]

Just playing devils advocate here, but does this woman deserve to be dragged through all this so Netflix and Richard make millions while she gets nothing but grief …. Especially if she is not compos mentis ????

[wildweasel]

Why does netlix have a duty but the news oaper doesnt?

[kevinb]

I find it somewhat unlikely any man would be obsessed with her, so I fully believe his story.

[WeShallOvercome_]

As soon as someone says “there must have been evidence” you can take it as read they’ve not done the necessary research for the point they’re making.

Has this journalist not heard of ‘innocent until proven guilty’? No evidence = defamation. Let’s see the evidence, please.

[papasmamas]

Its a really easy case to solve. If she takes this to court its gonna be super easy to see who is right or wrong. I dont believe in stories, I wanr evidences
