Watched Urmila's ‘Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya'? This Woman's Love Is Scarier: 'Will Make Sushi Outta Ur...'

Last Updated: Experts believe that digital access, when coupled with mental health issues and emotional rejection, can push fragile minds into delusional attachments. When police first discovered Jacqueline Ades had sent a man over 159,000 text messages, including threatening ones in under a year, the world was both stunned and morbidly fascinated. The Arizona woman, who met the man on a dating site and went on just one date with him in 2017, quickly turned into a real-life nightmare straight out of a psychological thriller. Her case made headlines again this year, as true-crime enthusiasts and legal scholars revisited the trial that became a chilling benchmark in stalking cases. Ades, who was arrested in 2018, had reportedly shown up outside the man's home, sent messages like 'I'd make sushi outta ur kidneys n chopsticks outta ur hand bones," and broke into his house while he was out of the country. She pleaded not guilty to charges of stalking and criminal trespassing in a trial that began in early 2019. Ades' obsessive spiral drew uncanny parallels to Urmila Matondkar's iconic role in Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya (2001), where a woman's unreciprocated love morphs into a dangerous obsession. While the film remains a pop culture reference point for toxic infatuation, Ades' actions took fiction into terrifying reality. The volume, intensity, and language of her messages weren't just desperate — they were downright disturbing. Experts believe that digital access, when coupled with mental health issues and emotional rejection, can push fragile minds into delusional attachments. Unfortunately, the Ades case was just a precursor to a wave of real-life crimes committed in the name of love. Dark Romance in the Headlines: Lovers Who Turned Criminal In recent years, India has seen a rise in shocking crimes involving obsessed partners and failed relationships: Muskan Rastogi murder: A chilling case where the woman allegedly killed her partner after a bitter dispute over suspected infidelity. Surveillance footage later confirmed her involvement. Pragati Yadav: Perhaps the most disturbing was Pragati, who murdered her husband in cold blood to be with her boyfriend. The murder was reportedly premeditated, and she even attempted to stage it as an accident. Together, these cases underline a disturbing pattern of obsessive attachment, emotional instability, and unprocessed rejection, often amplified by the illusions of love shaped by social media and unrealistic expectations.

Family speaks on ongoing search for 95-year-old woman missing from Mountain Home

BATESVILLE, Ark. – The search for Belva Day continues on land, over water and in the air. The 95-year-old from Mountain Home has been missing for over two weeks. She was last seen driving after paying her electric bill on Thursday, Feb. 6. A 95-year-old Mountain Home woman is still missing after 2 weeks On Feb. 24, Chaos Divers, a search and recovery team out of southern Illinois, searched the White River from boat ramps in Batesville, Oil Trough and Newport. Day and her beige Buick LeSabre with license plate USADOGN may not be in the water, but with police verifying her vehicle sighted in Gepp, and other unverified sightings ending in Batesville, Chaos Divers owner Jacob Grubbs got the family's blessing to take the search a bit deeper. 'No maps. No GPS. No phone. I mean she could be lost. She could be just still wandering the streets and driving around,' Grubbs said. 'We don't know exactly where she's been since she doesn't have a debit card and we can track her that way. So all we're doing today and tomorrow is clearing out the most prominent accident spots. It's all we can do.' Chaos Divers has helped locate over 500 vehicles and 19 human remains, according to Grubbs. In 2021, they assisted in the recovery of Samantha Hopper and her daughter Courtney Holt in Pope County. Both had been missing for 23 years, but Grubbs said they have also made recoveries of someone missing less than a week. Belva Day's daughter, Patti Ades, said her family has been reached out to by strangers trying to help, and they cannot thank everyone enough. 'It has restored our hope in mankind, to be honest,' she told KARK 4 News. Ades continued that if anyone wants to help find her mom, they should not just mention or post they think they saw her mom's car, but report it to local police and check the license plate. 'We pray she comes home but every day that goes by, that we don't hear anything, that she doesn't come home, you know, I wouldn't wish this all my worst enemy,' Ades said. 'This is a horrible thing for a family to go through.' Silver Alert issued for 95-year-old Mountain Home woman Ades said this action by her mom blindsided the entire family, but she is second-guessing if she should have taken her independent parent's keys away. Meanwhile, active searches are trying to take the guesswork out of where Belva might be. 'Hopefully we can bring her home safely, and if not then it's a sad day but at least we can give her answers,' Grubbs said. Chaos Divers will pause their search Tuesday until April when they plan to assist other families in Arkansas and Oklahoma. They will be able to bring equipment for searching smaller bodies of water then. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Iowa woman saved by blood donations has special reunion with donors

WEBSTER CITY, Iowa — An Iowa woman whose life was saved by blood donations had a special Valentine's Day reunion with the very people who donated. In 2021 Beth Ades was diagnosed with Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), which is a serious blood disorder. As a result, Ades had to undergo multiple stem cell transplants and blood transfusions before receiving a bone marrow transplant. Now, Ades says she's thriving and is celebrating the blood donors who helped save her life. Record number of vehicles crashed into Iowa snowplows in Wednesday's storm On Friday, in partnership with LifeServe Blood Center, Beth's 3rd ReBirthday Bash Blood Drive took place at P&P Electric in Webster City. In attendance were the very people who donated the blood that then went to saving Ades' life. Both Ades and one of the donors said the reunion was an incredible experience. 'It was incredible. I've been looking forward to this day for so long, and I couldn't hold it together I was a mess, lots of crying and hugs, but they're forever apart of me. They're a huge part of the reason that I'm alive and I'm here today,' Ades said. 'It gives a face to a receiver. I donate to try and help people and everything and by meeting Beth it makes me feel good, like I'm doing something,' James Henning said, who donated platelets. If you'd like to sign up to donate blood you can do so by visiting LifeServe's website.
