When Jews Attack 40 – Victim – Jew – Attacker – Fellow Jew

Elliot Fogel, 35, a former Sky News producer, was jailed for four months last year for breaching a lifetime restraining order by harassing 35 year-old complementary therapist Claire Waxman.

But it has now emerged that after being released from prison Fogel launched a civil action against Mrs Waxman in an attempt to force her to stop writing about him online.

His legal action came to light last week at a court case to determine whether it amounted to a breach of his restraining order.

Fogel, of Isleworth, West London, had been arrested and charged again after his representative contacted Mrs Waxman.

This appeared to put him in breach of the order, imposed in 2005 by Brent Magistrates’ Court, which prohibited Fogel, or anybody acting on his behalf to contact Mrs Waxman.

At Wood Green Crown Court on Wednesday the CPS dropped two charges that Fogel breached the restraining order on or before November 17, last year by initiating civil proceedings and attempting to retrieve material from Mrs Waxman on or before November 1.

“She is writing about me on a website and readers are invited to leave comments,” complained Fogel outside court. “All I am trying to do is bring proceedings that stop this.”

CPS lawyer Martha Godwin announced: “An issue was raised during this case, which required the CPS to take some expert legal opinion.

“The opinion confirmed that a restraining order cannot be used to stop someone from accessing civil courts as happened in this case. This meant we could not pursue this prosecution and we offered no evidence.”

Fogel developed an unhealthy interest in Mrs Waxman when they were both college students in St. Albans, Hertfordshire, where she had to continually tell him to leave her alone.

After leaving college in 1993 she heard nothing for ten years until receiving a dinner invitation from Fogel, which she declined.

A few months later, in December 2003, Fogel was spotted jogging on the spot outside her home and spent more and more time loitering around her workplace.

He even posed as a prospective parent at the nursery Mrs Waxman’s daughter attended, paid for background searches on her husband Marc and her father and collected her wedding photos.

She was forced to move home five times, developed an eating disorder and claims stress caused by Fogel caused a miscarriage.
