Fiona Harvey sues Netflix for defamation over 'Baby Reindeer' portrayal.

Fiona Harvey, claiming to be the real-life "Martha" from Netflix's "Baby Reindeer," has received permission to sue the streaming service for defamation. A judge ruled that the show's claim of being a "true story" misrepresents her, alleging she was portrayed as a violent stalker and sexual assaulter. The $170 million lawsuit cites emotional distress and negligence. The case is set for trial on May 6, 2025, unless settled beforehand.
