:cuppaT:

An obsessive stalker who followed a woman for eight years could be the first person referred to a new specialist clinic.
TV producer Elliot Fogel, 36, broke into Claire Waxman's car, made hundreds of late-night phone calls to her home and Googled her more than 40,000 times in one year.
Now 'the stalker who won't stop stalking' may become the first patient at the National Stalking Clinic, which opened today at Chase Farm Hospital in north London.
He was convicted of breaching a restraining order in July, but the former freelance Sky Sports news producer had his sentence postponed again today as his 'stalker profile report' had not been completed.
Instead, his defence lawyer called for him to be sent to the new stalking clinic in Hendon, pointing out that it was 'not far from where he lives.'

Fogel was jailed and breached a restraining order three times after developing an unhealthy obsession with therapist Mrs Waxman while they were A Level students at a college in St Albans, Hertfordshire.
She repeatedly told him to leave her alone, and heard nothing more until she received a dinner invitation from him ten years later - which she declined.

But in December 2003 he was spotted at her workplace and jogging on the spot outside her home. When police visited his home they found he had photographs of her wedding as his screen saver.

He had paid for background searches to be carried out on her husband Marc and her father, and had posed as a prospective parent at the nursery her daughter attended.

A restraining order was put in place in 2006, which he breached the year after. After a second breach, he was jailed for 16 weeks in January last year, before breaching the order again in July.


The original order banned him from going to her home address, her parents’ address or within a mile of her work after Mrs Waxman told the court she felt like a 'sitting duck'.
She said she suffered a miscarriage, developed an eating disorder and had to move home five times as a result of her ordeal.

But despite the order on February 1 this year, Fogel entered the exclusion zone again on the same day a court dismissed a civil case that he had brought against his victim, who he claimed had waged a Facebook 'hate campaign' against him.

The Crown Prosecution Service refused to prosecute Fogel for bringing legal action against her - because it would have breached his human rights.
Mrs Waxman, whose husband sat in court today, is now claiming £5,000 damages from the CPS.
Fogel, of Edgware, north London, attended court with his parents. He has previously had his sentence postponed because a psychological report had not been obtained

Julie Whitby, prosecuting, said: 'I cannot work out where the chain of communication has broken down.'
Mr Rundell, defending, pointed out: 'There is a stalking clinic in Hendon not far from where he lives. I’m not sure how long that takes but certainly there is that convenience.'
The case was adjourned for the report to be prepared.
The Protection Against Stalking report has revealed that two-thirds of stalking victims who contacted the police were unhappy with the way the officers or the CPS handled their cases.

Crikey! what a weirdo!

clearly people like that need some sort of psycho help

are there just not the funds? why don't the authorities make sure they get some sort of help, even if it's with the voluntary help groups/ charities?

I don't understand how people can be that obsessed about people that they destroy their own lives as well as their victim's life? :shake head:

They obviously need medical help and imprisoning them will stop the stalking but not solve the problem in their mind. No idea why this went on for so long without him being admitted to somewhere though.
