Case 211
Cari Farver
When Omaha mechanic Dave Kroupa met Cari Farver in late 2012, he thought he’d found the perfect woman. Unfortunately, their relationship soon turned sour and when Dave ended things, Cari began to obsessively stalk him, turning his life into a living nightmare.
For years, she tormented him, and any women he took an interest in – even going so far as to physically attack Dave’s on-again, off-again girlfriend Liz Golyar. But the truth about Cari would prove even more shocking than anyone could have imagined…
