A man who stalked a former school classmate and Googled her 40,000 times in a year has been sentenced to 16 weeks in prison.
"This is an incredibly ill and obsessed man who won't go away, refuses to leave me and my family alone and you have to question his intentions," Mrs Waxman, a mother-of-two, told Sky News.
"I know the statistics for stalkers, I know where it often leads ... it's horrible to think about it."
In a 16-page, written impact statement to the court Mrs Waxman described seven years of harassment during which she suffered a miscarriage, an eating disorder, sleepless nights and was forced to move home five times.
