Overview
- Adele Rennie, 35, used stolen images and a voice‑changing app to pose as men such as “Dr David Graham,” grooming women and leveraging intimate images.
- Targets formed an online sleuth group, used reverse‑image searches, and linked the fake profiles to Rennie, a nurse who had cared for a victim’s relative at Crosshouse Hospital.
- Courts have jailed Rennie on multiple occasions in 2017, 2019 and 2024 for stalking and sexual offences, and she is on the sex‑offenders register.
- Recently released from prison, Rennie issued an apology and said she has received medical help.
- The three‑part BBC series The Beauty Queen and the Catfish begins airing Sunday on BBC Scotland and iPlayer, with victims estimating the total targeted could approach 100.
