Di McDonald broke up with her short-term boyfriend … he ended up stalking her for three years.
In 2014 Di was recently divorced and dating was the last thing on her mind.
But a chance encounter with a customer at the store where she worked changed her life.
When she ended her brief relationship with boyfriend, Max Gardiner, he retaliated by embarking on a relentless three-year stalking campaign.
This exclusive two-part investigation highlights the difficulties women face in having stalking cases taken seriously by police and explains in forensic detail how Max Gardiner managed to act unapprehended for so long.
