Tanja Makarić Recounts Night She Was Willing to Let Stalker Kill Her

She says years of abuse by a onetime acquaintance drove her to believe only death would end it.

Overview

  • In an appearance on ARD’s Deep und deutlich, Makarić described confronting the man who had targeted her and hearing him say he wanted her to die.
  • She recounted that he demanded sex before carrying out his threat and that she drove alone to a late‑night street meeting in Wuppertal and waited on the curb.
  • Makarić alleges the harassment spanned years with nightly stone‑throwing, in‑person following, and barrages of messages from fake accounts.
  • She says the man accessed her phone, WhatsApp, and Apple ID to read her communications and track her, a claim not independently verified in the reports.
  • An intimate video of Makarić surfaced online in summer 2025, which she suspects could be linked to the stalker, while outlets report police filings, a court proceeding, and a restraining order but no confirmed arrest.
