Suzie Dickard was stalked by a Police Constable after she refused his advances. After she divorced her husband, Suzie moved into a new town to start her life over. Late one night she was confronted at her home by an officer claiming to have a warrant for her arrest. Suzie demanded a letter of apology from the Sheriff's office and the Police Constable began to stakeout her house and linger outside her places of business. He made an advance towards her and when she refused, he used his position to have her arrested. Share Your Story on the Show: strictlystalkingpod@gmail.com

In October 2020, we shared Suzie Dickard's story in our two-part series, Small Town Nightmare, where she shared her experience with stalking, harassment, and the fight to be heard. Years later, Suzie says the fallout continues. After speaking publicly about her story, she faced online scrutiny, judgment from strangers, and challenges that impacted both her reputation and career. Most recently, she says she was physically assaulted by women who appeared to know personal details about her life. Today, Suzie returns to Strictly Stalking to share what's happened since we last spoke, how she's navigated life in the aftermath of stalking, and why she's still speaking out.

Is your partner tracking you without your knowledge? In this episode of lovelustlaw, family law attorney and host Michele Locke sits down with cybersecurity and reputation-management expert Alan W. Silberberg of DigiJaks to explore the growing intersection of technology, privacy, and modern relationships. From digital stalking and spyware to online harassment and reputation attacks, Alan explains how everyday devices, including AirPods, smartphones, smart cars, and connected home technology, can be used to monitor, track, or gather information about unsuspecting individuals. The conversation examines common surveillance tactics, including malicious links, shared account access, Bluetooth and NFC-based threats, and deceptive techniques such as "evil twin" Wi-Fi networks. Michele and Alan also discuss practical steps listeners can take to protect themselves, including strengthening privacy settings, reviewing app permissions, disabling unused device features, and enabling two-factor authentication. Beyond personal security, they explore the challenges law enforcement and courts face when handling technology-driven cases, the rise of malware marketplaces and organized cybercrime, and the increasing role of AI in shaping online information and reputation. Key topics covered: Cyberstalking and digital surveillance AirTags, AirPods, and "Find My" tracking concerns Spyware, phishing links, and account compromise Bluetooth, NFC, and proximity-based threats Evil twin Wi-Fi networks and cybercriminal tactics Smart cars, connected devices, and privacy risks Digital forensics and reputation management Law enforcement and courtroom challenges in cyber cases AI-generated search results and online reputation Practical cybersecurity and privacy best practices Subscribe Here: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/lovelustlaw/id1819843688 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6BEWXKOaEo8lfK554a5NqE Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/2789d9c8-b4ab-4b4a-847d-a469d89b1d0b/lovelustlaw YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lovelustlaw Want to reach out to me?

Dr. Christine Cocchiola is a social worker, professor, researcher, and internationally recognized advocate on coercive control and abuse. But even Christine didn't realize she was being stalked. Her ex always seemed to know where she was, who she was with, and even details about her finances. Whenever she questioned it, she was told she was imagining things. After leaving the relationship, Christine discovered her phone had been hacked, her car had been tracked, and she had been monitored for years. Today, Christine shares how stalking and surveillance were hidden behind years of gaslighting—and how she finally uncovered the truth.
