A woman, Fiona Harvey, is suing Netflix and the creator of the hit series "Baby Reindeer" for $170 million, claiming that her portrayal as the character Martha, a stalker, was inaccurate and distressing. The show, set in London, gained popularity for its tense, darkly comedic exploration of vulnerability and abuse recovery, with the disclaimer that it is based on a true story. Despite Martha being a convicted stalker in the show, Harvey insists she has no criminal record, providing evidence to support her claim. Identified by internet sleuths due to similarities in age and job as Martha, Harvey faced extreme online hatred, death threats, and fear of public outings. The lawsuit accuses Netflix and Richard Gadd of unprecedented defamation. The case raises ethical questions about storytelling based on real people and Netflix's duty of care standards.
