  • Alice Ruggles lived in Gateshead, England, and had broken up with boyfriend Harry Dhillon. Harry Dhillon did not take the break up well. Texts, emails, voicemails graduated to hacking and stalking her at home. This then led to an ultimately horrific and tragic ending.

    Will never forget my mothers words when I was young and naive. When a man abuses you and come back to apologies with tears running down his face that you have to forgive and forget, because he loves you and cannot live without you...as soon as you see tears, run as hard as you can. He wasn't crying when he was hitting you so don't believe his tears when you are leaving him. He is just crying because there is no one to control when you leaves him. Thanks for the another heartfelt story Mike.

      So, she basically told you to be unforgiving because... tears? odds are they haven't changed and would still be abusive, of course, but why tears of all things?

      Also, they stick flowers and chocolate out like magic charms to make you submit, whether you like those things or not, because GOOD guys bring FLOWERS and Chocolates! Even while they are violating your privacy and coercing you, demanding interaction entirely without your consent, they think this PROVES they are 'sorry' and 'will be good'... and so you have to do what they want It shows a complete misunderstanding of what BEING A GOOD (person, friend, man, whatever) actually means-- trying to compel you against your will by performance of these culturally coded 'romantic' behaviors, and then, if you don't respond as their script dictates, they get angry and call you names. And the *worst* is when you get a cop who SNEERS and says so what's YOUR problem, you're complaining about CHOCOLATES? with obvious identification with the 'poor guy' who is supposedly 'trying so hard' to win you back, so what kind of cold mean b*ch are you? Cops in the States, statistically, are the most likely to be domestic abusers and very often view any amount of coercive behavior to MAKE a woman 'belong' to you as perfectly justified, even admirable proof of how MUCH he 'loves' you. (Gah, my own mother told me once that a boyfriend being extremely jealous was a compliment; her psychosocial orientation vis-a-vis gender and love was extremely unhealthy.)

    I was kidnapped by a guy when I was in college, 18, on a first date. I finally convinced him to take me home so I could grab medicine. This was a lie that I believe saved my life. I told the college and ironically the police station for the town was in the building of the school. They took a report. Told me there wasn't much else they could do. The school took him out of the one class we had together. He sat outside my home all day everyday for weeks. Then he went away. I was terrified and felt alone. 2 years later at a concert he was 2 rows behind me. I had a panic attack and left. I've never seen him since it's been 10 yrs. We need the police to take us more seriously. We need better protection. We need someone to care. Bless this poor girl and her family. Thanks for shedding light on this one Mike. Love ya! ❤️

      I was also in college, maybe 21 or 22 at the time, when I had to partner up with a classmate on a graded project. I invited him to my apartment because he had loud family over. He brought a 12 pack of pepsi and a jug of whiskey. He drank at least a pint of whiskey with two pepsi's within an hour, and started professing his undying love. We had only started talking as classmates that week. I asked him to leave, and that I wasn't interested, but he wouldn't. I then switched it up by saying something like, "tell me about how you know so soon that we are meant to be together?" When he started rambling, I interrupted him and said I had to take my elderly dog out for a walk, and slipped my cell in my back pocket. From the grass outside, where the whole building could hear me, I yelled at him to get out of my apartment before I called the cops. He left. I told the professor and the counselors at the school and they removed him from the class and threatened him with expulsion if he spoke to me again.
      It wasn't a kidnapping exactly, but I was definitely taken hostage for what felt like an eternity. Thankfully he got himself wasted pretty quickly and I knew I could pretend like everything was still cool long enough for me to get outside with my dog.
      When I was 19 or 20 I had another similar situation with another science project and another guy who used the study time to try to talk me into sleeping with him. I shut him down really quickly and threatened to tell the professor if it happened again and he backed off. I should have turned him in, but didn't. I was pretty naive at the time and didn't realize how fucked up that was. I was prepared the next time with the next person.
      I'm glad you got away and I'm sorry you were traumatized again seeing him at the concert later. You are not alone, and you are applauded for your bravery.

    I can see that obsessive look in his eyes. I remember that look from my ex. The lies, the gaslighting. I feel terrible for Alice and her family. I wish this never happened to her. I hope this worthless waste of a life doesn't ever get out of prison.

      These laws are not all the same on a national level. Each state has their own laws regarding domestic violence and/or stalking laws. Some states are harsher than others and some states still do next to nothing for victims, like only giving a misdemeanor for physically violent domestic violence which results in giving the victim an order of protective which only orders that the perpetrator stay 1000 ft away from the victim and the victim receive paperwork about it. That is it. Anytime the protection order is violated the victim has to call the police, who only do anything if the perp is caught red handed, if the perp is no longer there when they arrive the only thing they will do is question the perp about the call from the victim. Because of this, many victims of domestic violence don’t even bother reporting any of their attacks to the authorities and are almost always criticized by EVERYONE for it

Seriously, they are all a$$holes. I have known cops for decades and few have friends outside of fellow cops. Normal people find them arrogant and just plain weird. I was at a party hosted by a co-worker whose husband was a cop. One person said "So what's it like having a bunch of biker's partying a few doors down". Cop replies "We got bigger fish to fry, they're called terrorists"! This was just before the Olympics came to town. You could hear the freaking eyerolls.

    I think we all need to recognize that in most relationships like this, the stalker has begun stalking long before the breakup. So that by the time the breakup happens, they have already hacked into the partner’s social media, following them to and from work and school, isolated them from family/friends, etc. The fix is already in.

      @@pennylane3324 Absolutely it starts pretty quickly in the relationship and the stalker slowly modifies the victims behaviour and isolates them from friends and family. The only reason I got out of my situation was that, after beating me up and locking me in for five days, he couldnt get the drugs he needed because he had been cut off for beating me up. He eventually told me that I had to go and score for him and when I got out I phoned the guy I was supposed to see and his girlfriend (The real reason he had been cut off) answered and she came and picked me up and took me to my folks house. I will be forever grateful to that girl, Mandy, I believe her name was, as I truly believed I wouldnt get out of that alive. If she hadnt told her boyfriend to cut him off, I dont think I would have got out. Not everyone in the drug world are bad people, some are really good people who have just got into bad situations. I think they should name and shame these people as well as putting them on a register because it seems to me these situations nearly always end badly. Like my abuser went on to do the same abroad and ended up dead. But, it could have just as easily been his victim who died at his hands.

    I wasn’t expecting to hear her call to the police. This breaks my heart. She was so young and naive and still tried so hard to make it known that something was wrong. Stalking should be taken so much more seriously, I’m going through something similar and the police have said something physical has to actually happen before I can get a restraining order. I wonder if we can start a petition to nationally (ideally globally) get attention to this.

      In my state someone can get an automatic temporary restraining order as part of a proceeding. No need to prove anything, just automatically issued when asked for, for either party. So like if you sued the guy for civil harassment, you could then get a restraining order issued automatically. Its temporary, but can last up to a year. And then you can get another one. In my state that is. So there might be other ways to get one. Might be worth talking to a lawyer, cops don't go to law school so don't know as much as a lawyer does about what all your options might be, and what knowledge cops do have tend to be hyper focused on criminal law so civil law options are something they are often not even aware of.
      Something I've recommended to women in this situation that sometimes has helped is to do the following. Get a photo of the stalker. Make some copies. Go around to your neighbors, like all the people on your block, or in your building if its an apartment situation, and introduce yourself, explain your situation, and give them a copy of the photo, and explain that this person has no legit reason to be anywhere on your block and that if they see him then he is up to no good and they should immediately call the police. Even if the police won't arrest him, the mere fact they show up every time he tries to linger, and all the dirty looks from neighbors who recognize him, might reduce his bravery. Not foolproof, and not absolute protection, and limited to the area you live, won't help you at the grocery store or whatever, but every little layer of protection can help and they can add up and its especially nice if you can make your home feel a little more safe. And side benefit, you can meet more of your neighbors and get some community feel going on your block. There might also already be a neighborhood watch, some neighborhoods set those up and work w/police, so if so, contacting them would be great, some neighborhood watches even have patrols. Give them copies of those photos. If there isn't, consider setting one up yourself, police will often help w/setting up and supporting a neighborhood watch too even providing resources. Depending on where you live of course.
      Another thing is to have friends check up on you, let htem know if you don't answer w/in X amount of time u want them to call police to do a welfare check on you.
      Another thing is to look in to women's shelters in your area. So like if you're just feeling like he's around and don't feel safe at home, you'll already know about this place you can retreat to to spend the night at, you'll already know where it is, how to get there, what times their doors are open, etc.... Won't having to be looking up this info in a panic during a situation because you'll already have looked it all up in advance.

      @@SmegInThePants I do love your advice, but I wanted to ask: if the person were to find out that you'd distributed pictures and information on them throughout your community, could you then be accused of harassment or something similar? Obviously I don't personally believe that that's what it is, but as I think we can all agree, the law is flawed, and unfortunately trying to defend ourselves can lead us astray by accident. What do you reckon -- would the person have a case?
