Rick and Tanya Fernandez, a Phoenix Arizona couple, have found their lives shattered by an unrelenting cyber stalker who has haunted them for more than three years. Despite their desperate pleas for help, the couple has faced an uphill battle, with law enforcement authorities seemingly aligning themselves with the alleged stalker.

The Fernandezs, both devout Jehovah’s Witnesses and active members of their local church, are terrified by the relentless harassment they endure daily. Their hopes for justice have been crushed by detectives who have shown disbelief and have even accused Tanya of orchestrating the stalking herself, insinuating a split personality disorder and medical child abuse (Munchausen by proxy) against her children. The couple’s plea for support has been met with suspicion and skepticism instead of the protection they desperately need.

The alleged tormentor is a man they know all too well: the husband of their daughter’s pediatric neurologist. Tanya and Rick, whose daughter has received medical care from the alleged stalker’s wife.

Determined to expose the torment they have endured, Tanya Fernandez has decided to share the explicit and disturbing messages she and her husband have received. The content of these messages is deeply unsettling, highlighting the sadistic nature of their cyber stalker’s actions and underscoring the urgent need for authorities to take decisive action.

As Rick and Tanya Fernandez continue to fight against their relentless cyber stalker, they hope that their harrowing experiences will finally be acknowledged and the perpetrator brought to justice. In a world where the virtual realm can become a breeding ground for terror, their story serves as a chilling reminder of the dark side of the digital age and the devastating consequences it can inflict on unsuspecting victims.
