BBC presenter targeted by crazed stalker who also sent her sister bizarre gifts

BBC presenter targeted by crazed stalker who also sent her sister bizarre gifts The presenter was caused 'serious harm and distress' after being bombarded by Facebook messages Broady was caused 'serious harm and distress' BBC tennis presenter Naomi Broady was indundated with Facebook messages from a crazed stalker who also targeted her sister with a series of bizarre gifts, it has been revealed. The former player - who works as a commentator on BBC Radio 5Live and was part of the broadcaster's coverage of Wimbledon earlier this summer - was bombarded with messages from David Richardson during a terrifying 11-month campaign between January and December 2023. It came after Richardson, 39, stalked Broady's sister Emma over a three-year period. Richardson, of Stockport, Greater Manchester, appeared at Manchester Magistrates Court last month, where he pleaded guilty to the harassment of 35-year-old Naomi - who is also the brother of British No.5 Liam Broady - as well as the stalking of Emma, the Mirror reports. According to court documents, he "sent multiple unwanted images and messages via Facebook and [sent] unwanted gifts, cards and paintings," while he also caused the presenter "serious harm and distress". The court papers detail how Richardson "between 13/9/2020 and 4/12/2023 at Stockport, pursued a course of conduct, by sending multiple unwanted images and messages via Facebook and sending unwanted gifts, cards and paintings, which amounted to stalking causing Emma Broady serious alarm or distress, which had a substantial adverse effect on her usual day-to-day activities when you knew or ought to have known that your course of conduct would cause alarm or distress." They add: "Between 18/1/2023 and 4/12/2023 at Stockport, [Richardson] pursued a course of conduct which amounted to the harassment of Naomi Broady, and which you knew or ought to have known amounted to the harassment of her in that you sent various unwanted messages on Facebook." Article continues below Richardson has now been banned from contacting the sisters or visiting their homes ahead of being sentenced at Manchester Crown Court on August 18. When approached by the Mirror at his home in Stockport, Richardson confirmed he had entered guilty pleas, before explaining that he had tried to strike up a relationship with 37-year-old Emma, only for her to rebuff him and for him to start targeting Naomi instead. "I wanted to try to win her over," he said. "I wanted to ask her out.. I was a bit out of practice with the girls... I've not been in a relationship. So I just bought her a Selfridges voucher and some flowers for her birthday. And then I didn't ask her out. "But then Valentine's Day came along, so I bought her another Selfridges voucher and flowers, and then Christmas came along. You know, I sent it to her again, but she thanked me and said it really cheered her up." As a player, Naomi won one WTA Tour doubles title, as well as nine singles titles and 20 doubles titles on the ITF Women's Circuit, before retiring in 2021. It comes after fellow British tennis stars Emma Raducanu and Katie Boulter were made victims of stalking campaigns, with the former left in tears on court at a tournament in Dubai earlier this year after seeing a man who had followed her to competitions in the stands. The man, who was removed from the match and later given a restraining order by Dubai police, had given the 22-year-old a letter and asked for a photo with her in a coffee shop the previous day. Raducanu had previously been the victim of a stalker who walked 23 miles to her home and stole a shoe from her porch, with the obsessive man - 35-year-old Amrit Magar - later given a five-year restraining order and made to wear an electronic tag. Boulter, meanwhile, revealed that she has been followed by fans after tournaments, while she had received threats of violence from fans who were on site at competitions. Article continues below 'One time in Nottingham, I had someone messaging me on social media saying: 'I'm outside. I'm going to hurt you if you come outside'," she explained. "I alerted the WTA, and they found the guy, who was actually on site. 'Things like this happen all the time. Obviously we are very well protected, which makes you feel safe. The WTA does a great job of being there for you with that. I do feel like we are protected as much as possible, which at least puts your mind at ease a little bit.'

Bounty of $5m placed on warlord ‘Barbecue' who rules world's most dangerous city with super-gang who burn people alive

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A MULTI-million dollar bounty has been placed on the head of a warlord who rules over one of the world's most dangerous cities. American prosecutors are offering $5 million for information leading to the arrest of a Haitian gang leader Jimmy Cherizier - better known as "Barbecue".

Thousands of civilians are believed to have been caught in the brutal crossfire. There have even been reports of rotting bodies littering the streets of the city as lawlessness runs amok. Cherizier, a former Haitian cop, now leads a gang alliance called Viv Ansanm. read more in world news PEACE PLOT Trump & Putin 'plan West Bank-style occupation of Ukraine' to secure truce This group stands accused of numerous atrocities including murders and kidnappings across the lawless capital. The US if offering a $5 million (£3.7 million) reward for information that leads to Cherizier's arrest. "There's a good reason that there's a $5 million reward for information leading to Cherizier's arrest," US Attorney Jeanine Pirro said. "He's a gang leader responsible for heinous human rights abuses, including violence against American citizens in Haiti." The indictment alleges that he and US citizen Bazile Richardson solicited funds from the Haitian diaspora in the United States. This money was then allegedly used to pay gang members and buy weapons in defiance of US sanctions. Irish woman among nine people kidnapped in horror planned armed gang attack on orphanage in Haiti Richardson was arrested in Texas last month. The pair helped "bankroll Cherizier's violent criminal enterprise, which is driving a security crisis in Haiti", according to Assistant US Attorney General John Eisenberg. He further said US authorities would "continue to pursue those who enable Haiti's violence and instability". Cherizier's nickname Barbecue is rumoured refer to him setting his victims on fire. Under rampant gang brutality, Port-au-Prince is now considered one of the most dangerous cities on the planet. Fighting between gangs, cops and citizen groups has ripped through the city, leaving its infrastructure in tatters. Health services are crumbling and food insecurity has grown increasingly acute throughout Port-au-Prince. A recent attempt by a UN backed Kenyan led security force failed to restore control from the gangs. Haiti was thrown into crisis when President Jovenel Moïse was assassinated by unidentified gunmen in 2021. Who is Barbecue? HAITI'S Port-au-Prince currently lies in the hands of the feared Jimmy "Barbecue Barbecue - who is rumoured to have earned his nickname for setting his victims on fire - envisions himself as a "revolutionary", a self-professed "man of the people". His methods involve the killing, maiming and extorting of anyone unlucky enough to fall within his turf - turning every day into a constant battle for survival for residents. The fired cop turned warlord has been taking to the streets with a renewed vengeance and a plan to overthrow the government. He is currently sanctioned by the UK and its allies for "engaging in acts threatening the peace, security and stability of Haiti". And his influence is fast increasing as the country spirals into further turmoil sparked by the 2021 assassination of the country's Prime Minister Jovenal Moïse. Ever since, a security vacuum opened up and Barbecue has been greedily exploiting it, taking over territory and expanding his coalition with other gangs to wage further war. G9 has also been responsible for repeatedly cutting Haiti off from its much-needed fuel supply by taking its main oil terminal hostage. In a savage display of strength, Barbecue paralysed the country several times by preventing the distribution of food, water and vital medicines, plunging it into a deeper humanitarian crisis. Barbecue's criminal career dates back to his time as a police officer, InSight Crime reports. He participated in an anti-gang operation in 2017, leading to the extrajudicial killing of nine civilians. In 2018, he led a group of seven gangs in a massacre in La Saline, Haiti's worst massacre in over a decade. Barbecue was then fired from the police force and a warrant was issued for his arrest. In 2019, he participated in a four-day attack across Port-au-Prince's Bel-Air neighborhood, killing at least 24 people. 7 A man searches through burning trash in Port-au-Prince
