A man stalked his ex-girlfriend for months, leaving her terrified and feeling unsafe.
Redruth: So, there’s this guy, Nathan Gribble, who just couldn’t handle his breakup. He started stalking his ex-girlfriend for months, acting like a total child. It’s wild how some people can’t just move on, right?
He kept showing up everywhere she was, even outside her kids’ school. Imagine that! He’d call and message her non-stop, and it got so bad that she found a nail in her tire after one of his creepy visits. Talk about scary!
One day, he even claimed he took an overdose just to get her attention. It’s like he thought that would win her back. But it just made things worse. Neighbors had to warn her about him lurking around her car. How unsettling is that?
He also dropped off random gifts at her house, like flowers and an engagement ring. Seriously? That’s not how you win someone back. He was peeking through her windows and even tried to hack her Google account. It’s like he was in a movie, but a really bad one.
Despite being arrested, he kept it up for months. His ex said she felt constantly scared, like she was always looking over her shoulder. It’s heartbreaking to think about how this affected her and her kids.
In court, Gribble’s lawyer tried to say it was all just coincidence. But the judge wasn’t having it. He got a suspended sentence and a restraining order, which is good. Hopefully, this will help the victim feel safe again.
It’s just a reminder that some people need to learn how to handle rejection like adults, not like kids throwing tantrums.
