Christine alleged that King started sending her "incoherent waffle" on the social networking site in 2015, but later the tone soon turned darker which caught her attention. She admitted that she became frightened when King allegedly sent her a tweet stating he was, "planning the words for her tombstone." She showed the tweets to Frank and blocked the account on Twitter.

"Thankfully, I don't get threatening messages and that's why these stood out. I remembered the word tombstone and paid a great deal of attention to his Twitter profile picture. Because the tweets were so disturbing, to the extent that I showed it to my husband as well and shared my concerns. I wanted to make sure I memorised his face," she said.
