About the Episode

Rebecca Schaeffer was a rising star in the 1980s. Robert Bardo was a serial stalker. Robert’s infatuation with Rebecca started when she landed the role of ‘Patti’ on the hit TV show, ‘My Sister Sam’. Robert began to feel like Rebecca belonged to him and became upset when he thought she had been unfaithful to him via the TV screen. After three years of stalking Rebecca, this dirtbag did the unthinkable. Join us as we discuss how this case was pivotal in changing laws in California, as well as in the entire United States.
