Man Who Stalked My Daughter Kills
 

My wife and I found out some scary news today. As some of you know my daughter is a secular singer / songwriter. When she worked at a famous Karaoke Club in downtown Nashville she was stalked by a man who seemed obsessed with her.

Apparently since my daughter no longer worked there he began stalking another woman who is in the business along with her husband. This man had been stalking the woman all over town and last night when he was doing that once again the husband approached him and asked him to stop following them and to leave his wife alone. The stalker pulled out a pistol and shot this man four times and killed him.

That could have easily been my son in law because he would have confronted this man also had he ever run into him when he was stalking my daugther.

I am thankful my daughter is ok. Several years ago she had another stalker who was obsessed with her and her music and it was very scary. He had emailed her about them being destined to be together, etc and around the same time she actually saw a man she thinks was him following her at various times. There are so many weird people in this world!

Oh, wow. What a horrible thing! So glad your daughter is safe.

How horribly sad.

Wow!

Sometimes what didn't happen is as much of a shock to process mentally and emotionally as what did happen. I suspect this could be one of those "never happened" things for your family.

I'm so, so sorry for the family who is having to process what did happen, and so, so happy for your family that you're not having to process that on such a personal level.

That is just so horrible--all I could think is, thank God she has parents that pray!

But I feel awful for that poor mans family.

Whew!

BTW, Who is your daughter?

Re: Man Who Stalked My Daughter Kills
 

No name you would recognize. Signed by Universal to a record deal at age 15 in LA. CD came out two weeks after 9-11 and while Universal was cutting back so she got dropped. She has two songs on major movie soundtracks and one in a Disney TV movie but that was a few years ago. She is concentrating on being a new mom right now and will get back to song writing and singing someday! Her teen years were interesting because the three years Universal spent working on her album her and her mom got to live in Los Angeles, New York and Nashville. She never made much money but rode in limos, stayed in nice hotels, ate in nice restaurants, and met a lot of interesting people. As a note for those wondering she is not Pentecostal. She is Baptist and married to a Church of Christ guy. A source of consternatation for me but one I will not discuss on the forum.
