The STALKING of Bjork : "I Am the Angel of DEATH for Her"
Published 8 months, 1 week ago
Description
As always, thank you for hanging out and remembering Bjork with me today.
In 1996, Icelandic singer Björk became the target of an obsessive and dangerous stalker: Ricardo López, a 21-year-old fan living in Florida. Over the course of months, López isolated himself and recorded hundreds of disturbing video diaries, documenting his fixation on the singer and his growing resentment when he learned she was in a relationship.
The obsession eventually escalated into a violent plan directed at Björk. Before law enforcement could intervene, López took his own life and the recordings he left behind revealed the full extent of his delusions, anger, and fixation. Fortunately, Björk was not harmed.
