**Sabrina Deana-Roga** (1:17)
My mother-in-law suddenly passed away in a car accident last month. At the same time, my stalker disappeared.

**Alexis Linkletter** (1:25)
Coincidence? Probably not.

**Sabrina Deana-Roga** (1:27)
Probably not.

**Alexis Linkletter** (1:28)
Oh, that's so sad.

**Sabrina Deana-Roga** (1:30)
Messed up. So, my mother-in-law and I have never had a good relationship. She has tried to sabotage my relationship with my husband since the day she met me.
I wasn't good enough for her handsome and successful boy.

**Alexis Linkletter** (1:43)
Which is a crime on its own, like women protecting their sons like this and being obsessive of their children.

**Sabrina Deana-Roga** (1:48)
Handsome, successful boy, give me a break. Anyways, so...

**Alexis Linkletter** (1:54)
You can think your child is successful without being obsessive of them.

**Sabrina Deana-Roga** (1:56)
And you can think they're handsome without babying an adult man. I contemplated ending my relationship several times, but my husband always showed that he is on my side and I love him.

**Alexis Linkletter** (2:08)
Okay, that's good.

**Sabrina Deana-Roga** (2:08)
A few years ago, I started getting very threatening and scary emails and texts from a PAX.
So PAX is the name of the texter emailer. This PAX knew everything about me. It didn't matter how many emails and phone numbers I changed. They or he always found me.
I made several reports, but nothing happened. My husband tried everything to trace these emails. Nothing came out of it.

**Alexis Linkletter** (2:34)
Okay, so this is going in the direction of what's that documentary? Where like the mom was?

**Sabrina Deana-Roga** (2:39)
That documentary Unknown Number.

**Alexis Linkletter** (2:41)
Yeah, okay, so this is the direction it's going in. Because I went, when you read that subreddit or the title of the post, I thought it was me like, the stalker accidentally killed the mother-in-law. But now we're like, oh, okay, okay.

**Sabrina Deana-Roga** (2:57)
Well, yeah, and to torment your own high school daughter is so deranged.
It's like that is a dangerous, dangerous woman. We'll talk about how tangled relationships are when you even find out your parent is doing something like this, how hard it would be to accept.

**Alexis Linkletter** (3:17)
Yeah.

**Sabrina Deana-Roga** (3:18)
But the husband in this situation was really helpful in trying to get to the bottom.

**Alexis Linkletter** (3:23)
Which I appreciate. Great husband, green flag there.

**Sabrina Deana-Roga** (3:27)
Totally. No matter what, PAX always found her.
And she was under the impression that PAX was a guy based on the language that was being used. And the original poster says, I made several reports, but nothing happened. And this past year, I basically never left the apartment alone. So saying that she got so scared of this that it was, she was afraid to leave the house. So she says, I haven't received a single threatening text or email from PAX in a month. After a few days, I wasn't surprised. I felt like I always knew it was my mother-in-law deep down.
My husband hasn't reacted yet. He's consumed with his grief, and I don't want to bother him, especially when he bitterly told me, you must be very pleased now, when we heard the news and I tried to comfort him. He apologized later and said he was just feeling guilty that he loved and chose me more than he loved her.
