Richard Gadd's comments come on the heels of Fiona Harvey's appearance on 'Piers Morgan Uncensored.' Fiona allegedly inspired the stalker character, Martha, in the show, and denied sending Gadd thousands of messages.

It is highly frustrating the backlash he is getting for telling his story. As a woman I stand with him and Netflix. He has no obligation to protect his abuser. Absolutely none. That’s the responsibility of the legal system and mental health services. Let than man have the same freedom as any female victim would. When Amber Heard ran to the media lying did any of them care about what would happen to Johnny? Because his stalker is crazy doesn’t make him any less a victim and come to think of it what stalker isn’t crazy?

media didn't care about Johnny but should learn from their mistakes and be more careful next time. Just because someone is a victim doesn't mean all he and Netflix are saying is true. In the end legal system protected him and stalking stopped.

I’ve seen Morgan criticize Gadd for putting in the Martha goes to jail part for not ever actually happening, but that’s one of the parts that’s fiction. I think the reason he had his tv show version of himself able to get his stalker thrown in jail is because that’s probably what Gadd wish he had done in real life with his own stalker. He wrote a show from a place of reflection on events that had already transpired, so of course he’s gonna have his characters make the same mistakes, but ultimately able to be more enlightened in the end as he was when we wrote the show. But what is true was there being an article about Fiona stalking her ex-employer and her family. Even though she denies her English version of a restraining order that she had served to her, by saying it was a filing error, which is a wild lie, that event and article does exist. Fiona and Martha are mirror opposites with the lies they tell, and the way they name drop having lawyer friends and connections and also criticizing Gadd’s man hood and his line of work. Gadd was able to portray his stalker down to even the smallest of mannerisms. I do believe there are over 40,000 emails, and that there was over 100 letters sent to him. And that he does have every single voicemail saved from Fiona. And I also bet he is being triggered emotionally by that fact his stalker was on tv. Gadd is a brilliant writer, and did what every single writer and creative ultimately dreams of doing with their own personal past trauma, which is write your trauma out and put it in front of the world as a way to convey your journey in life, as the journey may align and enlighten another in their own drama they live through at this very moment. Baby Reindeer is brilliant and truly cinema at its finest.
