This case is beyond the typical harassment/cyber-stalking. CEO was obsessed with destroying the couple and the person he put in charge (James Baugh) had multiple law enforcement connections.

There is also a good Behind the Bastards episode about this case. Truly bizarre obsession on the part of the CEO and a completely off the rails security org doing his bidding.

Good.

With that said, the CEO has mostly escaped responsibility unfairly.
