  Speaker 1: So when I was a senior in high school, this
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: would have been around two thousand and seven, I was
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: out of the blue, contacted one day by this random
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: guy on MySpace. I vaguely recognized him, but I didn't
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: know him. He told me that he knew me from
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: school and that I had tutored him in math a
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: couple of times. This should have been my first red
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: flag that something was off. I hate math and I've
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: never tutored anyone on that topic. I told him that
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: he was mistaken, but I tried to be nice to
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: him and we struck up a friendly conversation. Soon, the
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: guy Brian started talking to me at school. It started
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: off pretty innocently. He was giving me more attention than
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: I wanted from him, but I was kind of flattered
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: by it, and I didn't really think much of it
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: at the time. He was a couple of years younger
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: than me, and I figured he had developed a crush
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: on me, primarily because we're both kind of odd compared
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: to the other kids at our high school. It was
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: a very small school. My graduating class was only about
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: forty people, and he and I were two of a
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: very small number of alternative kids there. He was emo,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: while I tended to be more of the punk variety.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Both of us loved my chemical romance. I figured he
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: was into me because there weren't many other girls there
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: with similar interests. Before long, he started waiting for me
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: at my locker every day between every class. He started
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: following me around before school and during lunch. He started
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: coming to my performances I was in drama Inquire. I
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: tried to be polite but started avoiding him. The situation
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: continued to escalate to the point where he was sexually
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: harassing me every chance I failed to avoid him. If
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: he was waiting for me at my locker, he would
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: say sexually explicit things to me, tell me what he
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: wanted to do to me. Luckily, my girlfriends were with
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: me and came over as soon as they noticed him
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: talking to me, which made him scurry away. As quickly
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: as it started, it was over one day he stopped
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: showing up at school. I was relieved but curious. After
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: about a month of him being gone, my friend mentioned
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: him in front of my dad, who was also the
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: principal of my high school. My dad asked me about
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: what happened, and I ended up telling him the whole story.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: He seemed really troubled. I asked him what was wrong,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: and he told me why. Brian was absent from school recently.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Apparently not long after homecoming, Brian had strapped some fireworks
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: to a cat and set them off. The cat exploded
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: and Brian laughed. He got caught and was sent to jail,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: and then was committed to a psychiatric facility by his
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: parents after he was released. I don't know what happened
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: to him after that. I'm thinking I dodged a bullet, though,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: because he turned out to be even crazier than I
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: thought thought he was. This happened when I was in
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: high school. A few weeks in I had made a
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: few friends, and I was keen on making more, so
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: I would socialize a lot in the hopes that I
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: would get more friends out of it. I was still
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: somewhat new to the school, and one day I got lost.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: This is where I met the guy who would eventually
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: become my stalker. He showed me around and helped me
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: get to the class I needed to go to, and
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: we made conversation, and at first I thought he would
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: be nice to have as a friend. A week passed
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: and I had made a few more friends at this point.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: I wanted to hang out with him as much as
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: I could. I felt a little bad because my other
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: friend was a bit of a loner, so I invited
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: him to come hang out with us. He didn't talk
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: much at first, but after a while he eventually opened
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: up to me, and then he wouldn't shut up. He
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: mostly talked to me. He started asking me advice on
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: life and whatnot, and I was happy to help. That
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: is until he started asking me to pat his head
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: like a dog and make him wear a leash. I
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: was a bit weird, you might say. I passed it
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: off as a joke and I humored him, something I
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: never should have done. He started calling me his master
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: or mistress. I asked him not to do that, and
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: I told him that I wasn't comfortable with this behavior,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: but it was apparently too late to fix things. He
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: started skipping his classes to walk into and get kicked
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: out of mine. He would follow me around all day,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: and if I would go to the restroom, guess who
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: would follow me inside. I asked him to stop many
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: many times. He refused, so I tried to get the
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: school involved. They had no proof of stalking, and I
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: found that kind of strange since many of my teachers
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: have kicked him out of my classes. But nevertheless, nothing happened.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: He began to get more aggressive when I asked one
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: of my guy friends to help me out with a
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: homework assignment. My stalker overheard this from around the corner
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: and didn't like who I asked for help. After that,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: he would pretty much fight and harass every male I
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: would talk too. Some would probably find this flattering, but
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: I found it annoying and immature. I tried to tell
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: him not to worry and that we were just friends,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: but his exact wording was, they don't deserve you. They
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: are worthless compared to my master. I then yelled at him.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: I do feel bad because it was quite harsh, but
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I was about fed up with his and if he
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: wanted to act like a dog, I was going to
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: treat him like one. I thought it was finally free
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: from that cycle. He finally stopped following me around until
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: one day I found this letter in my locker. In
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: this letter, my stalker gave his discussed for males and
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: his hate for himself, and that he must be evil
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: for his master to treat him this way, and that
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: I must be taught not to shun pets. It was
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: a few pages long, and it was very disturbing. In fact,
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: it was the most terrifying thing I had ever read,
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: especially when I got done reading it and looked up
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: and saw him staring at me from down the hall.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: He came up to me and opened his phone and
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: started showing me pictures of well of a cartoon character
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: who had a similar appearance to me, with the same
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: brown eyes and curly hair. Then he tried to hand
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: me a leash and asked me to walk him around.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: At that point I ran away up to the office,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: letter in hand. The principal finally had the proof he
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: needed and agreed to step in. The cops got involved,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: and soon after a restraining order was put in place.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: He was expelled and wasn't allowed within fifty feet of me.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: About a month after that, I was sitting in my
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: room one night doing some homework when I heard a
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: scratch at the window. I looked over and then frozen,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: pure terror. My stalker was standing just outside my bedroom window.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: He had a collar around his neck and a leash
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: was dangling down from it. He was intensely glaring at
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: me through the glass. His face then crooked into a
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: disgusting grin before licking the surface of the window and
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: ran off. I flipped out and woke my parents, who
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: called the police. When the cop showed up, I told
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: them who it was and what he did. They collected
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: the evidence from my window and arrested my stalker for
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: breaking the restraining order. Thankfully, I moved out of that
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: town a month later and I never heard from my
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: stoker again. I still have nightmares about this to this day.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Being stalked was not romantic or fun. It was terrifying,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: bone shaking and nerve wracking, and the worst thing I
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: have ever gone through. But I do hope that he
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: got those issues worked out. I live in a very
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: rural area of New Brunswick, Canada. It was early September
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: and it was my first day of school. I unfortunately
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: was held back in my senior year, so I would
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: be returning to high school as a nineteen year old.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Since we lived in a very isolated area, the middle
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: and high school shared the same building. I had study
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: hall for first period. However, when I entered, I noticed
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: that there was a new student on the other side
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: of the room. He stood out because, like I said,
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: it was a small community. I walked over to him
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: and introduced myself. We shook hands and he told me
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: that his name was Chester. Apparently he had just moved
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: to the area. Being the friendly Canadian that I am,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: I showed him around the school and where his next
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: class was. As I was giving him a tour, I
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: noticed that he seemed a bit off. It began to
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: ask me questions. At first, they seem harmless, like how
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: long I had been there or where a certain classroom was,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: But then he began asking me some questions that seemed odd.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: He then asked me for my home address and snapchat,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: and yes, it was as awkward as it sounds. I
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: was completely taken off guard by this. I did not
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: give him my home address, but I thought what harm
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: could it do to give him my Snapchat, A decision
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: that I would later regret. When the last period of
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: the day came, I had English class. There were only
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: nine students in that class. I took a seat and
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: that's when I looked behind me in Saulchester. He didn't
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: notice me right away. He was too busy making out
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: with a sandwich. It was disgusting. He looked up and
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: noticed me. Imagine that you're present at a murder trial
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: and the defendant turns around and looks directly at you.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: That should give you an idea of how uncomfortable I felt.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: He then gestured for me to walk over to him.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Class was about to start, so I just ignored him.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Five minutes later, I look up from my book and
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: I noticed that Chester is now staring daggers at me.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: The look in his eyes was predatory. He must have
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: saw me as the next sandwich he was going to devour. Again.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: He gestured for me to walk over to him. I
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: know a underwear sniffing weirdo when I see one. I
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: ignored him and continued reading my book. Then my foam pinged.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: It was a snapchat message. Of course it was from Chester.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Follow me, I replied, we're in the middle of class
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: right now. He got it from his table and asked
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: the teacher if he could use the bathroom. He then
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: walked out into the hall. I wanted to see why
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: he wanted me to follow him, so about five minutes
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: pass and I asked the teacher if I could use
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: the bathroom as well. When I exited the classroom. I
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: saw that Chester was about fifty feet away, walking very slowly.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: This guy was weird. I kept at a distance behind
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: him so he wouldn't know I was there. He then
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: turned down the hallway that led to some storage rooms
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: and the basement. I saw him open a door, walk inside,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: and closed it behind him. Confused, I walked over to
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: the door he walked through, and I recognized it as
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: the entrance to the school's basement. There was no way
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: in hell I was following him down there. I just
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: casually walked back to class. When I sat back down,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: my phone pained again, why didn't you enter the basement? Okay,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: so now I'm thoroughly creeped out by the sky. I
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: just replied, look, uh, just leave me alone. You creep
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: me the hell out. I then blocked him. When I
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: got home that day, I immediately started on my homework.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: By the time I was all done, it was around
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: eleven p m. And I was all by myself. I
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: was putting all my stuff away when I received a
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: new Snapchat notification. Someone had added me as a friend,
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: but it was from an account called why didn't you
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: enter the Basement? I knew it was Chester, so I
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: blocked it. Not even thirty seconds later, I got another request.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: This time the account was called why did you block me?
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: I blocked that one as well. Then another one came in.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: This time it was even more ominous. I know where
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: you live, followed by I'm right outside your house. I
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: then heard a window break downstairs. I immediately called the
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: cops and told them what was happening. The operator said
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: to find somewhere to hide and lock the door. I
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: hung up and went into the hallway closet. My worst
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: nightmare came true as I heard footsteps and moving up
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: the stairs the closet that I was hiding and overlooked
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: the staircase. I then saw a dark figure appear. As
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: it moved into the light, I saw him. It was Chester.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: As soon as he reached the top of the stairs,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: he made his way to the middle of the hallway
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: and then stopped. He then looked directly at the closet
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: I was hiding in. It was like I was in
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: a horror film. I didn't want to freak out and
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: give away that I was hiding in that closet, so
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: I retreated further in concealing myself behind some thick winter coats.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Chester then opened the door and peered inside. He couldn't
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: seem to find a light switch and eventually gave up.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: After moving from room to room, I heard his footsteps
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: descending back down the stairs. A few minutes later, the
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: police knocked on the front door. I immediately left the
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: closet and went downstairs and opened it up and told
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: them what was happening. Of course, by the time that
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: they arrived, Chester was nowhere to be found. After they
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: searched the house, they determined that he escaped through a
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: window in my basement. I showed the police the snapchat
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: activity and they said that they would do their best
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: to track him down. The next school day, I went
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: to the principal's office to report Chester. I sincerely believed
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: that he was a threat to both myself and the
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: other students. But here is the creepiest part of the story.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: My principal told me that there was no new student
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: named Chester. He must have snuck into the school somehow
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: and blended in with the other kids, and none of
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: the staff bothered to confirm that he was actually a
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: new student. Thankfully, he was never seen again, and I
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: never heard any follow up from the police either. To
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: this day, I still think about what would have happened
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: to me if I had followed him into the school basement.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: I might have been his next sandwich. In early September,
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: I started my senior year of high school. I was
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: a bit of a loaner and usually kept to myself.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: I lived in a very rural area in northern Washington State,
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: so it took me some time to drive to school.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: During my second period class, there was a student named Keith.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: I didn't really know him that well, but he never
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: really seemed to bother anyone. Before I noticed that Keith
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: was staring at me. I was at the far right
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: desk in the front row. He mouthed a few words
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: to me, but I could not understand what he was
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: trying to tell me. As the day went on, I
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: would occasionally see him in the hallways giving me nasty looks.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: I tried my best to ignore him, but something about
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: this guy seemed disturbing. Finally, it was a last period
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: of the day and I was about to leave. However,
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: I stopped dead in my tracks when I noticed Keith
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: at the end of the hall staring right at me.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: I acted like I didn't see him and tried to
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: blend in with a crowd of students who were leaving,
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: but as I walked out the door, he watched me
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: get into my car. I remember looking into my rear
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: view mirror to see him standing by the parking lot,
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: watching me as I drove away. By the time I
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: got home, I had forgotten all about Keith's strange behavior.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: Later that night, I received a text from an unknown number,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: I know where you live. I didn't know what to think,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: so I ignored it, thinking that it was a spam MEAE,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: and continued working on my homework. A while later, I
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: received another text. This time it was more alarming. It
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: was a picture of me walking into my school. The
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: number then sent another picture of me in the school hallway.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: Both of the photographs were taken from behind. Another message
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: then came in. It was my home address. My parents
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: weren't home at the time, so I quickly shut off
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: all the lights in the house and closed the blinds.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: The last window I got to was in the living room.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: I briefly looked outside to see a silhouette standing in
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: my front yard. It was too dark to see who
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: it was, but I closed the curtains and made my
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: way to the basement and waited. An eerie silence settled in,
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: as if something could happen at any moment. The silence
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: was disrupted by the sound of the front door handle
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: being turned. Thankfully, it was locked, but the fact that
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: someone was trying to get inside was terrifying. Five minutes later,
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: I heard footsteps above me. Whoever was outside had found
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: a way inside. I quickly hid under an old desk.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: I should have called the cops when I had the chance,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: I guess. I didn't really think someone would actually break in,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: and now I didn't want to give away my hiding spot.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: My worst fears came true when I heard the basement
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: door creak open. I could see the light from the
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: upstairs hallway shine in for a split second before it
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: was switched off, plunging the basement into darkness again. It
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: was now silent and pitch black. I then heard a
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: voice speak. It was Keith, I know you are down there.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: I can see you. Come out now. I didn't know
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: if he was bluffing, so I didn't move. He then
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: slowly walked down the stairs and made his way around
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: the room. I could hear him knocking things over and
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: getting closer and closer. He then stopped directly in front
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: of the desk. My heart was pounding a mile a minute.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: All went silent again until Keith spoke, well, I gave
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: you a chance to make this easy, but now you've
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: reallyed me off. At this point, my eyes adjusted to
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: the dark and I could see that Keith was holding
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: a hammer in his right hand. Without thinking, I sprung
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: up from under the desk and shoved Keith, sending him backwards,
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: and then made a bee line to the basement stairs.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: I'm going to kill you. I heard something flying across
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: the room and smashing into the old TV by the staircase.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: I would later find out that he threw the hammer.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: As soon as I got upstairs, I say in the
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: basement door shut and locked it, then ran out the
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: front door, right right good. I immediately called the police
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: and then my parents. I heard sirens in the distance.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: When the cops pulled up, I told him that he
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: was locked inside the basement. When they entered the house
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: and opened the basement door, Keith was gone. He escaped
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: by smashing out a window. It turns out that I
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: had forgotten to lock the side door, which is how
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: Keith got inside, I told the police who Keith was
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: and showed them the disturbing messages I received earlier. Two
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: days later, I was called to the principal's office. I
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: was told that Keith had been arrested and will never
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: be allowed back to school again. Thankfully, I never saw
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: him after that. As far as Keith's motives were, he
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: may have had some kind of psychotic meltdown and decided
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: to act on a preconceived obsession of me. It's truly scary.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: One day he seemed so unassuming. In the next he
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: was in my basement trying to kill me with a hammer.
