Episode 17: bonus episode - remembering actress Rebecca Schaeffer

Send us Fan Mail36 years ago this month, actress Rebecca Schaeffer was on the brink of superstardom, not only because of the acting credits she had already accumulated in her 21 years, but also because of her excellent prospects with director Francis Ford Coppola. Tragically, she is more remembered for her tragic murder at the hands of an obsessed stalker than for her work. This meticulously researched episode is a love letter to the young woman whose name and memory should go further than the anti-stalking legislation that her death brought about. If you or anyone you know have been affected by crime, visit victimconnect.org for a weekday helpline for emotional support and your legal rights and options. Also visit rainn.org for resources for survivors of stalking and cyberstalking. Rebecca's story entails these issues that may be triggers for some, so listener discretion is advised.Logo: DaveyATalks
