This week Kelsie walks us through the tragic stalking and murder of Emma Walker, a sixteen-year-old cheerleader who was stalked and murdered by her ex-boyfriend, Riley Gaul. Riley had become obsessed with Emma, and had been continuously disrespectful towards Emma, her parents and their boundaries. He also couldn't seem to take "no" for an answer, and tried winning Emma back in some pretty bizarre ways.
