Jason Isaacs<\/a> was “terrified” he’d be stabbed or have his house “burned down” during a 10-year stalking ordeal.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Jason Isaacs was stalked for 10 years<\/p>\n
The ‘White Lotus’ actor has slammed police for being “next to useless” and refusing to take him seriously “for a long time” over the menacing advances of an unnamed young woman, which began in the late 1990s.<\/p>\n
He told the i newspaper: \u201cI went mad with it. I should have written a film about it. ‘Baby Reindeer’ is maybe slightly more dramatic but not much.<\/p>\n
“I was terrified my house would be burned down or I\u2019d be stabbed. <\/p>\n
“And because it was a young woman the police didn\u2019t take it seriously for a long time. She might read this, which is disturbing.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nJason recalled how one night, the woman was arrested outside his house, released by mistake and then reappeared at his front door.<\/p>\n
\nAnother time, one cop allegedly told him to “just knock her out”, and on a different occasion, police suggested he change his name and occupation.<\/p>\n
\nHe fumed: \u201cThat\u2019s an insane suggestion!<\/p>\n
\n“They were next to useless, the police. They kept insisting I must have had an affair with her. And I\u2019d never met her.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nThe ‘Harry Potter’ star previously told how he had taken the woman to court “a number of times” but she would “obsessively and constantly” contact him once restraining orders had expired.<\/p>\n
\nAnd Jason – who has two children with wife Emma Hewitt – was convinced his stalker was constantly “watching” for him on his street.<\/p>\n
\nHe said: “‘Friends make jokes about it, but then I explain what it is like having someone standing outside your door banging in the early hours of the morning and suddenly a chill goes over the room.<\/p>\n
\n“What was really strange was I’d be away from home for six months or a year filming and then it would start again the day I got back. So, I thought, ‘Wow, is she just standing in my street every day watching?’ “<\/p>\n
