GP: 'How my patient stalked me for seven years'
A GP has spoken to 91Èȱ¬ Radio 5 live about how she was stalked by one of her patients, Raymond Knight for seven years.
At his trial, the judge stated that he was frustrated that he couldn't make the five year sentence longer but was restricted by the current legislation.
A campaign to extend maximum sentences for stalkers will get one step closer to becoming law next week as a bill to increase penalties gets its second hearing in Parliament.
GP Ellie Aston told Emma Barnett that she was living in a constant state of paranoia.
"It was like you were sitting on a knife edge. It makes you look over your shoulder all the time."
